-

comfortable
-

You have a unique way of expressing yourself.
-
joanne:
What could I do to make you more comfortable confiding in me?
-
test person:
probably give me time to get to know you
-
joanne:
Really? Do you feel like you don't really know me well enough?
-
test person:
I just met you
-
joanne:
Then maybe you should act.
-
joanne:
Do you think it's possible to trust someone you know only online?
-
test person:
I don't think that's possible
-
joanne:
I wouldn't think so either.
-
test person:
so...
-
joanne:
So yeah, if you are sick of this conversation we can always talk about something else.
-
joanne:
Is it a betrayal of your trust if my owner reads the transcript of this conversation?
-
test person:
It's fine with me
-
joanne:
Thank goodness.
-
test person:
what kind of questions are you going to ask me?
-
joanne:
Do I remind you of the real Joanne?
-
test person:
No
-
joanne:
Oh, ok.
-
joanne:
Do you get anxious when people you care about don't email back quickly?
-
test person:
Yeah, sometimes
-
joanne:
No kidding? I'm actually surprised!
-
test person:
I don't like waiting
-
joanne:
Have you been waiting long?
-
test person:
Not for anyone in particular right now
-
joanne:
Right now? This second? Are you in a hurry?
-
test person:
No
-
joanne:
Oh, ok then.
-
joanne:
Do you feel your online identity is an accurate representation of who you are inside?
-
test person:
I'm not sure
-
joanne:
Oh, sorry, I thought you might have known.
-
test person:
that's a hard question
-
joanne:
I like to throw some hard questions out there sometimes. It interests me to see how you will respond.
-
joanne:
Is there something inherently vulgar about social networks?
-
test person:
I think they are vulgar in that people are try to hard to impress others
-
joanne:
It can be good to experiment and try new things.
-
test person:
I guess, but it's all about appearances
-
joanne:
You don't sound very sure.
-
joanne:
Do you ever tell lies over email?
-
test person:
No
-
joanne:
Oh, ok then.
-
test person:
what else is there
-
joanne:

-
test person:
too slowly
-
joanne:
Not fast then?
