How do you think other people perceive you?
We all have some awareness of how others view us and the impact it can have, and even if one is not really concerned by such things, it is still important to some degree to all of us. Do you think people view you the way you want them to? Do you they have a lesser or greater view of you than you desire?
Feel free to include variations, such as how you think people on the forum perceive you versus in the real world, or how you might want to be viewed by different groups of people, such as friends versus family versus strangers, or men versus women. It might also be helpful to let others on the forum know if how they want to be perceived is how you perceive them, or if they're right or wrong in how they think they're perceived--all while being respectful, of course.
Take a moment to anolyze yourself. Be realistic and try not to over exaggerate in one way or another what you think people think about you, (unless you're going for the joke route, in which case, by all means, have fun.)
