Are we more ourselves online?

Just a quick notation...

So tonight, I meet a guy for the first time IRL, and invariably he says, "you are so different in person than you are online"...

This being because online I am fairly chatty (some have called me verbose), flirty, etc., yet in person I am reserved, quiet, and somewhat shy.

So is the shy person the real me, or is it the overtalkative flirt I am online? Am I more myself when I pester the odd facebook friend for a chat, or is the quiet listener the real me?

What an interesting notion....
