Why would you have a close "friendship" online when you could have a real one with a touchable person?

Friends online are real people behind their screens, and my online friends are just as real as my friends in real life.
Are you trying to shame ppl away Mr. Roboto? 🤔

You're assuming a lot aren't you Skynet?
Life happens...you can’t decide who your heart likes.

They aren't mutually exclusive.

@Rutterman true this ☝️
Touching in real life is kind of frowned upon at the moment...

No reason I can't have both.

Why not get lucky and have both!🍀😊
For some of us, online is our only socialization
People are not interchangeable.

As one friend told me it's for the emotional connection. Then there is the lonely syndrome, That being with someone and still feeling alone is hard on the heart and hurts like heck when the emotion is missing. Too connected to leave but too disconnected to feel wanted, loved, sexy, desired and fulfilled. Then there is the self-esteem thing where that online gives you that needed push to excel in the love at hand. Then again, I may be far off base on this!

Sorry, this question is contrary to ToS and to the very existence of SW and should be removed! 🤣🤣🤣

Simple: For an introvert like me, it makes things one hell of a lot easier to manage, and drains my social battery way less than in-person meetups.
Of course, if I really enjoy that person then my battery lasts a bit longer, but people usually like to tag others along with them...

Yes exactly.

Nothing wrong with both. An online friendship gives you the opportunity to meet other people you normally would never encounter, while a touch-range friendship lets you fulfill things an online friendship can't.

Because sometimes the touchable people that you get along with are out-touching distance... either physically, work schedule wise, other reasons....


Plus why not both?
The two things don't exclude each other, and during this pandemic a touchable friend is not available to many people.

Some of us can’t have a “real one with a touchable person” for various reasons.

You would miss meeting cool people who don't live near you.

Because in real life sometimes it's not attainable to interact with so many people and then make a connection.
