Do you value online friends?

yes your right, thanks for internet as we have the chance to meet those from other country without the need of going there just to meet someone from there. i appreciated online friends though i choose only few, if i know they are really pure and real by heart as theres also a lot who are pretending and who only want to play.

One of the great things of the internet is the possibility to meet a lot of new people, even if they live in the opposite side of the world. New technologies are making the world smaller, and thanks to that many people can make new friends, and then one day meet them in real life

I value friends online. I can talk to them about my interests more than my friends in the real world. Like if I'm in a fansite of a certain celebrity, most of my friends in the real world can't talk to me about that celebrity, but my friends on that site, we can talk so many things about that common interest.

I had friends I met online more than 5 years ago. But then I stopped being active on that online community and I somehow lost communication with them. I've always regretted it, but I hope to make new friends here.. :)

As far as I am concerned, I think I am a person who usually value all my frineds in my life,no matter he is my online friends or friends in reality. I think they are my friends, they are the persons who usually help me when I meet some troubles.I love them so much.

Oh yes! I love them! I have met a lot of AWESOME people through the internet! There was this woman from Michigan who I met online through a Michael Jackson fan page in Facebook. She was conducting a tribute book which I participated in. I started asking questions about the project, and from then on, everything became easier, more comfortable. I am chatting with her right now. She is so sweet and thoughtful and supportive I wish I could meet her in person (I am from the Philippines by the way)! Also just this week, there was this random little girl who asked me a question one day about MJ and when I gave her an answer she thanked me wholeheartedly. From then on we started PM-ing each other in Facebook, talking about life and Michael. It is amazing. She even told me that she wished I was only a few blocks away so she could just text me. How sweet is that? I really appreciated it...

Hello and Good Afternoon ginoduds, To be very frank i love this technology the WorldWideWeb (www) and i do like to tell you that i love making friends. This technology give's us many benefits and one of them is to make new friends from different culture and different habits. I had friend from many part of the world in my Facebook but i have to close that one as there were many fake account's there and this is the reason i some what hate this thing because people give you wrong information and try to get your personal information's and not just that in that account i had so many friends who have send me the friendship request and when i saw them online i try to talk to them they just block me so i closed that account but i do have so many good friends also whom i talk daily nearly daily and they are from different different countries like Mauritius, Philippines, America and many other and i like them because they are really true to me and to many i have even had telephonic conversations also. I am a friend maker and loves to make friends you can say it is a hobby of mine to search for good and true friends. The best thing i like about having online friends is that you can share everything with them every little small thing that you might not like to share with any person whom you know.

hi ginoduds, Yes, I value my online friends like the way I value my friends here. I think, the only difference between my friends here and my online friends is that, I can see and feel my friends here but in online, I can only see them via different messengers. I am here and my online friends are there, while in here, I am here and my friends are here. Its just a matter of physical distance. But I know that my online friends are real also. They are always there when I need them. They can cheer me up and they can help me with my problems. I trust them because I think, no friendship could ever grow without trust in each other. Well, I also this golden wisdom which I get from my mom. She keeps on saying to us "Do unto others, want you want others do unto you." So when I am meeting people online, I trust them and do not fool them.But of course, never give full trust that easy. We must be very careful first with whom we meet online. And if time goes by and we can see that he or she is real, then that is the time, we can give our trust to them.

The internet had redefined the meaning of friendship. Or perhaps it has created a new level of relationship. I also refrain from calling my acquaintances on the internet my friends. A friend, for me is someone I have known on a personal basis and someone I have lived good and bad times with. I do not know yet up to what point I could endure with those I meet on the net. One thing for sure though, there are many kind and selfless creatures on the the net, like mylot, who are worth keeping. These people are frank yet sincere. For what they are worth, I can only say they are friends.

I value online friends like how i value offline friends. The only difference with online friends is,we never touch them personally. But the thoughts,emotions shared is same thing with offline friends. I had my long online friend for more than 4 years now,and,i am so happy to have them as my friends,even if it is only thru internet. It is good to know someone/friends from the other part of the globe via internet. And,i am one of those who want to "thank you internet" for this.

Ya, you are right dear friend, I value my online friends so much, because they help me a lot about the things, online friends are unselfish to because they don't demand anything special to you online friends only share good things, thoughts, ideas and messages with you that's the finest thing about online relationship (friends), I know some my online friends aren't good enough but so what I take it easy and having new friends day by day. thanks

hell0 there! yes, I value and treasure all my online friends and especially the ones that I know are worth to be value, because they have helped me many times and always have supported me in all my initiatives! I know friends are friends no matter online or in real life, and we must treasure them both because friends are something very important!

I've known different kinds of people online but only few of them are of great value to me. It depends on how they treat & communicate with me, I like persons who have good attitudes but hate those having offensive traits.

I beg to disagree on that brother. not all people have the same mindset, with all due respect.

Yes , we value different friends because they shared ideas or valuabled information that you can used at your daily lives.It serves a blessing to all over the world.

There was a time in my life that i dont even believe in meeting friends online not until several months ago. A friend told me to try and make an account of my profile online and try to befriend as many as i can .Then suddenly people started talking to me befriending me too, it was that time that i imagined, yes its also good to have online friends , met several of them already, but if you ask me it doesnt matter if you dont go out together often , what matters is that you both understand each other and try your best to be as honest and as helpful to your friend .True friends are tested in times of need, whether online or real life friends giving time to help is what truly counts. ;)
