Friendship on the net

Hylas · Apr 21st, 2002, 02:54 PM

Is it easy for you to make online friends or not?
Do you consider them as normal friends or do you think the friends you know personally (ex. friends from your school/city) are more important and reliable? Can you tell them anything about yourself?
And least but not least, do you lie to your online friends to make them think you're a different person?

i have a had a few friends over the net,
i think its okay till they send u a pic and it ruins the fun of describing ureselves (jC say nothing)

I do a nice job and making friends on the net. I came on today and got invited to an AIM chat by people I never even heard of before. Still talking to them. I try and be nice to people on the net because I enjoy talking to people.

When I was younger I'd go on a chat and lie and crap...but that was just for fun...now I try my hardest to make online friends...hell I made a whole bunch on this forum alone

I used to have very close friends online. Then some of them betrayed me and told me things I wasn't expecting.
Maybe I trusted those persons too much.
Now I can't say I don't think people I meet on the net are not reliable, but I don't trust anything they tell me without thinking about it or, in some cases, having doubts. Maybe I'm not friendly as I used to be.

I don't find it too hard to make friends on the net. Overall, I have lots of friends mainly because I think I'm nice to them, or at least I try. I think that I depend more on my school friends though...I guess it's because I can interact with them on a different level. I try and be as honest as I can about myself so I refrain from lying to people on and off the net. But yeah, making friends isn't that hard but it is kinda easier to make em online if you're a shy person like myself

Man friends are easy to make online.I find it way easier to express myself to someone when there not in front of me.Right now i have about 20 really good online friends

Neo_Soldier28 · Apr 22nd, 2002, 09:52 AM

Am i one of them sssnake lol i totally agree with sssnake its way to easy to make friends on the net compared to real life.

007_JamesBond · Apr 22nd, 2002, 11:16 AM

I make friends where ever I can get them, if it is on the net well then so be it, I find it sort of easy though

Ruby Moon · Apr 22nd, 2002, 02:15 PM

I have not many friends on the net, but the ones I got are very close. I've never lied to any of them and I hope they did the same thing.

This is completely true. I hear many people calling persons friends after talking to them only a couple of times and sending personal photos. This is not supposed to be friendship, I think.

Well, I Know How That Feels.... Although It Has Not Happened With Me, But I Know How It Exactly Feels....!.! And After Something Like This, Its Really Hard To Trust Just ANYONE U Meet, I Am Not Only Talking Online But...... In Person As Well!.!

Still.....Its Pretty Alright To Have Friends Online!>! It Makes U Social In One Way Or The Othere!>! And Grows Ure Confidence. I Am Sure About That!>!

I have a few net friends and I think it is fairly easy, it just depends on the other person or more the less common interests.

Spirit · Apr 24th, 2002, 09:05 AM

but meeting a beautiful girl from CA online and my best friend online from Holland changed my perspective
