I Believe That Internet Friends Are Real

I love internet friends but I think what I hate is that a [i]lot[/i] of them are temporary. You have deep and engaging conversations with them and suddenly you just kind of stop talking, one of you stops coming online, etc. It's easier to make friends online but it's also unfortunate that most of them don't last.

I think the same. It's sad that there are many people think that internet is strictly just a virtual place with virtual people. They talk to you this time til the conversation run out and go, like they only want to spend their spare time. I'm so glad that I met my current friends, not a lot, but they are all I need from the internet. They treat me better than anyone in my real life that would. I met my bf too, we are also best friends. I believe these will last longer than i expect if both side is willing to invest.
