I really want to know?

what is the deal with these people who answer these questions and lie about the answers. Who are they trying to impress, some of these things about caring for others, come on, what is wrong with saying what you would really do in the situation or have done in the situation. Why do so many people get on here and try to make them sound like they are better people than what they really are. Don't come down on me because I speak truthfully about how I feel, I prefer to be honest in cyber life and in real life.

Update:

I am asking for an answer to my question, not an insult to my intelligence, I am not that young, and some people who believe that everyone is as good as they say they are, are just lying to themselves.

Update 2:

those of you all that claim to be so bright, need to take notice that I used the word some not all, so stop taking everything personally, just like every question on here does not pertain to you, this one may not pertain to you, so if you are not someone that I am referring to, don't worry about it.

    Maybe you should try R/S instead of P/S.People are here to relax not comtemplate the crap that goes on in this world.You've been around here long enough to know that there are people who lash out without thinking about anything else but their own little world.So Don't take it so personally.Do you know how many vial things I've seen,heard and been called?It goes with the territory.I think its great that you express yourself honestly,but its not realistic to expect everyone else to go by the same standard you do.

    I used to live my life taking no ones **** and all it got me was more ****. Now I live my life with the intent of not hurting anyone and always try to be positive. I am in no way perfect or pretend to be better than I am or look for points. I try to help when people ask.

    I do care for others but other than my spouse and children no one comes before me unless there is a real need.

    My way of dealing with vulgar or truly potentially dangers people on this thing is to report them.

    If I am one of the people who has pissed you off I am sorry.
