Conflicted. Let me explain. In an effort to overcome SA, I started chatting with strangers on skype (without webcam turned on of course) using a pseudonym. I was hoping it would be a "no-strings attached, non-commitment" kind of deal. I got really friendly with some of the strangers. Now, one of them asked me if I have FB, instagram, or twitter because he wants to follow me! Yikes!
What do I do? I want to keep my online life separate from my real life, for the most part. I never imagined that one of my skype buddies will actually want to be friends with me. Did I mention I am using a pseudonym? What if I told this person my real name and this person realized I've been lying to him the whole time we were chatting? I don't want to hurt his feelings.
I think I have a solution: tell him that I don't have FB, instagram, or twitter, which is a lie. He'll probably find it hard to believe because who doesn't have FB or twitter nowadays?
