Two Faced
Salaam
According to a quick dictionary and thesaurus check, a two faced person is someone who is “hypocritical, insincere, deceitful, cheat, traitor” etc etc…pretty harsh definitions.
In what situations do you put up a front? When do you act differently to who/what you really are?
This forum is a classic example of people acting differently to what they’re like in real life.
In real life I can at times be just as immature as my younger sister…even though I keep up a “serious” image here….I’m also less tolerant - I become moody and irritable when my extending family gangs up on me and/or teases me……In real life I would never participate in a discussion, I’m more of a listener and I’m a lot less confident in my views.
Does anyone else have a different side to them in real life?
Another example that I can think off is when one is in the presence of both parents and in someone else’s house…
Job interviews and also rishta meetings are also classic examples of people only showing and bigging up their good side.
It’s kinda scary at times how we can never be sure what a person is really like….even Islamically, it is said that you can only truly know someone if you’ve lived with them for three days and three nights.
So, how can we really know who/what someone is like? Isn’t it correct to say that this forum gives people confidence?
Why is it is that some of us can say things behind a screen that we could never dream of saying face to face?
And is this necessarily a bad thing?
Do you consider your self two faced in certain situations?
This thread isn’t as coherent as it should be…but if you understand what I’m trying to say then share your thoughts please…

Oh Please if you want to bash HT then join MPAC full time, rest assured to have your credit card when you CLICK "Join them".[/quote]
lol Shazan...
You just keep falling behind because of all this background information - exHT aka "Tex" is a [i]person[/i] or a group of people... we're not quite sure.
He used to come on and flip out about the "Lions of Fallujah" then tell everybody they are going to hell.
A delightful guy.
