For me Second life is a wast social phenomenon of the new era. Some place people can be whoever they want and do almost everything they want. But still, there are some real emotions can be involved. It scared the hell out of me back in 2009 and I preferred to run from it. Now, I have some general thoughts about mixing or keeping separate SL and RL. Is it even possible? Here is a short questionnaire, you can answer some, or all questions, just interesting how different people see it.
1. Do you keep SL apart from RL? Are you open about RL with people in SL? Do you tell your RL friends about SL?
2. Do you act very differently in SL than in RL?
3. Do you spend a lot of time in SL? Do you think you can spend less time, if RL demands it? Do you think SL is addictive?
4. Do you think SL affected or changed your RL self? In a good or in a bad way?
5. Do you think SL only relationship can be considered as an RL adultery? Can you manage both relationship without getting in trouble?
6. What is the most important thing there is about SL for you?
7. Do you think a lot about things that happened in SL when you are offline?
Thanks for participation!
