Thanks you guys. I really mean it.

[Marizzle]

I'm glad we can be of help (in a way!).

I shouldn't talk about it here I guess. Don't want to bring anyone else down.

I think what he meant by that is that it involves other people on this site. -____- But ehhh, I don't personally care. Their thoughts on this aren't relevant to me at all.

But yeah, you can always talk to me and Jack, Tora. ^^

Sometimes, I get surprised. Online friends or simply people who met online and later became IRL friends seem to care more for each others wellbeing than those who met "directly IRL". I'm not saying this applies to everyone, but, to most people I know, it does.

^ I feel like I'm generally much more open and empathetic online than I am in real life, unless it's someone I'm close friends with. Even when I was going through my withdrawn stage, I was usually pretty active and sociable on the websites I was a part of.

I think a lot of it is you have more control over who you interact with online than in real life.

I had a feeling that was the case.

But I'm like you, GG: I'm way more open online than in real life, sometimes even more than I am with my closest friends.

For me, it takes a very long time to warm up to people. IRL people just don't give me that kinda time. So, I'm closer to people I meet online.

[Tora]

Honestly I even find socializing with people online better. I really don't have a large number of IRL friends. I have a few, but I don't talk to them that often. Once or twice every couple of months.

Yeah, I think the fact that I didn't really have too many "real life" friends growing up was also a major factor. I just always felt more comfortable on websites. Now it's a bit different since I do actually have other people I'm close to but I also have online friends that I'm really close to now too.

I think I overall just have way more friends than I ever did in the past. ^^

[Carl]

I too have way more friends than I used to have... most of them are from MLK.

Unfortunately I'm still awkward as hell so I don't talk to many of them much. Most of them probably think I don't like them or never wanna talk.
