Just be yourself, and blunt!

[The Dark Crystal]

I think at one point or another in our lives, we all wear masks and try to appear as someone other than who we are in order to impress people, whether they're friends, love interests, family members or bosses/clients. Obviously one isn't going to be as open and free with their bosses/clients as they are with their partners or family. But i do understand your point.

I agree, I am guilty of it as well, but I don't do it just for the h*ll of it! Theirs always a reason for me doing so, weather it be for a job, or me being around my elder. I also don't consider it another mask though, your just trying to give respect and not say/do things they might not find respectable at their age.

For alpha>

Better yet let me say this (Should have been more specific the first time, sorry.) Their are people out their that do it constantly as well, people who put on different mask without even thinking about it, people who do it when they don't need to, and people who probably don't even realize it because they do it so much.

Also, I don't agree we all put on mask everyday.

Edit: Probable should have put this in the Intellectual discussion, sorry mods!
