I spoke to this girl on msn who i didn't know 8 years ago and we still talk now, she is from london and i met her about 10 times

:evilgrin:

And i think im pretty close with 1/2 people on here too

See her as a friend :p

Yeah yea, that's what they all say :laugh:

She has a bf and we just close don't see her in that way :p

I think it's possible to make friends on the internet. I have made a lot on twitter and facebook. I haven't met anyone in here, but there are people i like.

what a silly question.

I have friends on the Internet who are just as important as my real life friends. I have friends on this forum who have been wonderful friends to me.

Definitely, I've made around 9 or 10 really good online friends, I met up with one last July, I currently host a podcast with one of them and will be meeting in December and I've spoken to one literally every day for the last 2 years, recently my friend has moved to uni, so I speak to her online now and it feels the same, I like to treat them equally as I've grown close to all of them.

Plus I only really have one friend in real life now and even her I can't really be myself to :p

The only person i'm really close to is my twin sister. She knows me more than anyone else and we just chat on messenger or skype all the time.

I have 2 real life friends I actually like. The others I hang around with when I'm bored but don't like them too much

I have a few I met online

I had a Gay Friend from Texas called Michael I met online but now we don;t talk

I have no internet friends as such

Im not a particularly friendly person tbh

Neither am i. I've always struggled to make friends. :laugh:

:hehe:

We are lonely renegades cocking a snoop at friendly society

Lone wolves. :dance:

I've met a load of my online friends(about six off this site alone) but I still have online friends I've yet to meet and would consider friends. One of my online friends, Cate, I would consider one of my best friends besides the fact I've never met her(she's coming over from America next year, eeek).

But we talk daily(in the year we've been speaking there's been 10 days if that where we've not touched base), Skype weekly, tell each other everything and understand each other better than anyone and yet because there's an ocean in the way it's not considered as valid a friendship to some people? It's strange.

Anyway, yes I consider online friends as important as real life friends.

Who here is my friend

I have a friend on twitter called BoBo but that's about it

who wouldn't be your friend?

Yeah I'm close to a few people online and definitely consider them friends.

Well, I met my wife online (a student forum) and we talked exclusively online for 14 months before we met so I guess that counts? We talked all day every day for over a year. Literally all day. Like... 12 to 14 hours... And my friends used to go mental at me when we were out as I was always on my phone. Haha... We watched films and TV together as dates and everything. Excellent students both of us, you can tell, didn't skip all my classes because I was too busy chatting all night or anything... :D

I've had plenty of other forum buddies over the years, only one I'd consider an actual friend, given that we talked on MSN almost daily for something like 9 years, and have been talking overall for almost 11. I'd call it a sort of online siblingish relationship. Have sort of lost touch since MSN went down the pan, though... Which is sad, really, as she probably knows me better than the majority of (if not ALL of) my real life friends. And certainly better than my actual sister does.

yes :flutter:
