Online friends

you can sometimes find a real good friend online. It's just not that easy to find them because they are very hard to find . I have a very good friend who I met online. We don't send mail that often because we chat most all of our time and we talk about different things and many more.

Friendships online, just as in real life, can be hard to find... at least the real close ones that last for more than a month or two. I myself have only found four or five online friends over the past several years who I feel are truly my friends. In point of fact, I hope to meet them all in person someday, and each of them have mentioned the same thing (I've been chatting with each of them for over a year at the least). But here on myLot, a lot of the friendships seem shallow... sort of like myspace. Get as many friends as possible to seem more popular, and expect them to do things for you. You have to remember it works both ways; that you need to respond to their discussions if you'd like them to reply to yours. Make sure your friends post discussions that you're honestly interested in!

I think you are slightly mistaken here. People will respond to your discussions if they are interesting enough. Also, this is a give-and-take world. To get answers, you must give some. If you go on firing questions one after another, expecting your friends to respond every time, and not bother about answering any of their discussions, they won't feel motivated to respond. They will just turn your notify off and won't care when you start a new discussion. Also, why does it always have to be your friends who will respond? There are a lot of mylotters out there, like me, who will be responding to your discussions if they are interesting enough. Adding someone as a friend is just an added feature over here. You can really be friends with someone here if you gradually develop a good relation with him/her by your good responses to their discussions. Cheers.
