I'm fast becoming a fan of bread and olive oil.
Problem is the bread has to be good, or you're just mopping up oil with a tasteless rag and swallowing a kitchen sponge.

Wait, this could be interpreted as unhealthy? I'm lost here. Maybe my explanation is off? Most people don't really compartmentalize their "personas" to the point that they give them names and stuff. That reminds me of DID.
In this case, the dissociation is voluntary, like an actor playing another role in a movie. Could it then be categorized as a disorder?

To clarify, everyone has personas they put on for others if they're social between multiple people of varying association. You act differently around your family and friends respectively, for example. You might have a different disposition, use different language, etc.
I've only named these different modes of association and essentially role play with them. You could say I'm doing something like that with this account, and once I get bored of emulating Dirk I might move on to someone else and adopt a new text shade (though I love orange).

You're speaking of conscious personas?... That doesn't sound healthy.

Who are your personas, and who/what do you emulate in them? What are their dispositions?
I'm a big fan of taking characters from things I've watched or sentiments I've held and making them into a front I can use around people (because I love messing with people).
Currently rolling with a persona IRL named Sai, quiet and private (though in class I'm coming off as a know-it-all).
Utilizing diction for short association seriously teaches you something about how you use words and how varying degrees of relation in any social situation depend on what you say and how you say it.
Also, the person you imagine projecting is much different than the person actually projected. They're like the loose ends of a thread your're spinning, and you're constantly trying to shear fraying strings.
What I'm trying to say here is changing my methods of association is revealing a lot about how I influence interaction.
I also think acting is fun, so...
Do you guys have personas? Any interesting revelations?

How would you see yourself leaving?
I don't know what you mean.
I didn't explain it very well. I meant to say something along the lines of "what could make you stop posting here," but tried phrasing it so you could interpret the question to also mean the method in which you'd do it.

Answer any or all:
How much work would you get done IRL?
Would people miss you?
Would you miss people?
Why would you stop posting, if you did?
How would you leave?

Is it a dog or something?
It's probably not something human. But it has an interest in you and is expecting food.
Zombie?
It seems to have enough sense to wait for an offering. Some zombies are polite, though.

Go back in time to the past me when I was about to start 2nd grade and warn him about how much people are going to raise tons of hell on him.
This actually happened.
You reminded me, I could go back to 1st grade and do something similar. That's pretty tempting, actually.

The stranger takes an interest in you and slides over on the bench you're both sitting at. The stranger is pleasant enough, but a little bold. Certainly nothing to be afraid of. The stranger is thin upon closer inspection, pleasant but thin, and you can't help but wonder if they're starving.
The stranger doesn't appear to speak, but waits patiently with an open mouth.
Do you feed it?

The past is long dead and as shitty of a time as it was for me. It was all necessary. So I look to the future, and ask a few simple important questions.
But I have another question. What if you go to summon future you, and nobody shows up because future you is dead? Then what?
You would be sitting wherever the fairy sets you up with your own corpse, or if she's feeling less mischievous, no one would be there. Then you'd try to prevent that death maybe?
Time fairy's just doing an odd job before Fairymas.

Future self, since his particular existence in his and (now) my current form is contingent on the fact that he has a time machine, and when I visit him I tell him to go back in time and surgically implant his brain into my past self. Thus giving me access to the technology to travel forward in time to visit him. Thus beginning the new cycle of my total eminence.
The only difference between you and this other you (besides the time thing) is a fairy. You could in theory try to kill the time fairy, but I don't know how that even works.

Tough one.
Probably past me, to warn him of the many mistakes I've made and tell him how to avoid them.
I considered this option, but there are fuck ups of mine crucial to establishing my current mindset, and that may prove to be the thing that allows me to succeed in my endeavors.
But maybe talking to past you would change who you were now, and you could make yourself that much closer to your dreams, right?
Time talking is tricky business.

Say the magical time fairy visited you and gave you the choice of talking with a past or future self. Who would you talk to, and what would you talk about?
Future me and I would have a conversation about how to get shit done (education-wise, finances, mood).

I'm aware of something similar to this. I don't say "I love you" to anyone and in general I don't really have strong emotional attachment to anyone.
I don't want to sound presumptuous, but I'm aware my situation has factors originating from childhood. You might have experiences that conditioned you to shut people out.
Personally, I don't have an issue with it. I plan on living a solitary existence anyway.
I also don't have conventional views on the importance of family.
In my "love life" it's "worse." When I do start feeling affections for others I immediately shoot those sentiments down and distance myself from them until they dissipate. I don't desire a family of my own.
In a way I do one day want a family of my own, my only worry is because of what I've said in the OP I'll be a terrible father and I'd rather not bring a child into this world if I'm not going to be a good dad.
I'd say you being conscientious of your impact on others is a good start towards those things.
