a little problem

Why is it so hard to roleplay a persona completely different from mine? Anyone else have this problem? The best I can pull off is to exaggerate my own inherent traits. It seems that to get into a completely different skin takes much more effort, which perhaps takes away the fun of the game. For example now I have to take a few extra seconds to think of a response, and this makes the gameplay much more awkward. For instance, when a character says "Hello", it takes me 15-25 seconds to think of how my character would respond. Meanwhile the other person is wondering why it's taking me so long to respond to a simple greeting.

Anyone understand what I'm saying?
