Confidence and the internet?
#1
Question 
So, from the day I started playing Gmod, I lied.

I joined a server, was shunned due to my having(back the ) a high pitched voice so faked that I was 17. Of course my 12 year old self didn't really think that one though and the result was me getting perma-muted on that server. But does this pose an issue?

Oddly enough, this knocked my confidence. Until recently, and sometimes I still do out of habit, I lied about my age. Today I turned 15 and that's really got me thinking. I've told most of you I'm already 15, or even older.

But what of it? So someone lies about their age by a few months? Big deal? Well I think so. This one tiny encounter on that server, that I highly doubt exists anymore, turned me into a liar. Turned me into someone who found it ok to lie about who they were.

But I wanna know what you think. Do you think the internet really can knock someone's confidence to where they feel they need to lie to fit in, or is this a thing someone develops from somewhere else.

I'd like to know what you think.
