Hello 🤗

Will like to ask this random question... do you think online friendships can be like I don't know, maybe meaningful or even beautiful know as those friendship in reality

I will love to hear y'all thoughts about this and if you ever had an online friend who made or is making you change your perspective on this like who made a difference in your life ...🥰🤔

@HelenListens Most certainly! To me, online friendships with good, quality people is beautiful and just as real as a "real life" friendship. I've known of people and engaged with them for years on here. There's a member I've chatted with for years and have supported. I consider her my friend, care about her, and naturally love her and our friendship. She's good people. Yes, I know boundaries are important but for me, it's natural to grow fond of people I chat with or engage with throughout the forums. I care and ❤️ my buddies here and I can't tell you the number of times they've added to my day. They make me smile, laugh, and bring joy to my day. They uplift, encourage, support, and accept me just as I am. I find our friendship real and I'm grateful for them.

online friendships can be great i am on this and a couple of forum sites where if you hang around you can get the sense of who is REAL and straightforward. Like @yourcaringconfident said you can develop a good friendship and get things out of friendship like support and person to listen.... just chatting.

@toughTiger6481 Exactly! The friendship should be mutually beneficial to both parties. It's rewarding to me be able to engage with so many real, sweet, unique people especially through forumland. It's where I come across good wholesome people. 🥰 Hope you have a good day and continue to be exactly who you are. You're a gem. Have a good one.

If people are genuine here, they'll respect your boundaries, go at your pace and support you whether you are here everyday or once a year 🥰

To me, they count, but in a different way to how a real life friendship would develop, looking them in the eyes, getting a better sense of how they interact..

It's a lot harder to fake in real life, so yes it's meaningful or it can be but sometimes things can be misinterpreted too.

Bit trickier to tell if someone is teasing or just being mean. Whereas facial expressions would help.

My acquaintances come and go but each one is special, aside from the ingenuine timewasters.
