I don't have the desire to put my whole life on the internet and tell people I don't know.
To say, or to even imply that online friends are better than RL-friends is a laughable statement.
Call me once an online friend can put an arm around you via the internet.
It's all about limits. The internet has it's limits.[/quote]
If the person's a true friend it doesn't matter if they can put an arm around you or not. Besides, some people irl can't do that, either. Some people don't have arms, others aren't comfortable touching people. If someone's a good friend, they can make you feel good with words, irl or not. And besides, if someone is a good online friend, then eventually they'll meet up irl and then they can do those things.
