I’ve always hated the term “real friend”. I don’t need to be seeing someone face-to-face every day to make them a “real” friend. I’ve had friends through the internet and through writing letters; I have a friend now who I meet up with once a month but we talk mainly via the ‘net; doesn’t mean we’re not “real” friends.

I think it’s only people who aren’t online who don’t understand it.

I have more friends now than I’ve ever had in my life. Two are very close and I meet up with them frequently and I’ve met lots of others. I don’t frequent twitter or face/space/books but I have a great online social life!

I’m not trying to be funny, (ex-teacher etc) but the playground can be a particularly poisonous place for adults as well as children, I have even seen both age groups fighting there. Your choice of friends must be by interests etc. and good friends are positive about you, no matter where they are.

That’s perfect and exactly how I feel, I just never had the words for it.
