The internet has changed our lives and we can do many things with the use of it. We can watch videos, read the news, play online games and communicate with people around the world. I have met a lot of friends through an online game and even though the game has already shut down, we still communicate with each other when we have time. It’s been 4 years since I met them and it’s pretty amazing that I became friends with them. They live from very far places and one is from another country. They are good friends and they were really funny. You’ll never get bored when chatting with them. I haven’t met them in person but I would love to meet them personally one day. How about you? Do you have friends that you have met online?

All the time! My best four Xbox friends all met with me at random in a game one day. We played well and have been playing together ever since. Two years now! And World of Warcraft is where I met my favorite healer and best online friend. I talk to her on Skype and through email more than I talk to people in my real life lol

Yes, I have friends who I met online. One, I have been friend with for 14 years. We have never met in person because we live a couple thousand miles apart, but we talk on the phone and email each other.

It's interesting to hear that you have some on line friends as you used to play on line games. I remain least interested in on line games. I do have mylot friends with whom I communicate on channels other than mylot.

Online friends can seem like offline friends. Sometimes there seems to be a stronger bond. It would be nice to see some online friends. It sounds as if you really enjoy the laughters with your online friends.

Yes, I have few online friends. I have met few and there are many I haven't met. I would like to meet each and every person with whom I chat and share my life.
