I'd call the friendships that I make online acquaintences. The main reason is because 99% of the time I won't meet them, and secondly they aren't really in my thoughts throughout my day to day routine! I consider someone a friend when I can go to them for advice or with a problem and they can give me a solid information based answer based on knowing my tendencies.
So, maybe I will understand your beliefs and some things about what kind of person you are online, but I probably really won't consider you a true friend... I know I do check some peoples posts more often, because they have interesting discussions that are fun to comment on, but in the end I think this space is just for fun!

I guess our friendship is fading, because I still know nothing about you! Cmon make it more than an online acquaintance!

I guess friendship is an inevitable relation which finds it way it self. I believe that nobody becomes frind just by accepting your offer of friendship. Friendship is something about Trust, Reliance, Co-operation etc etc. I think people who become friends after being Mr XYZ for some period are actually our friends instead of the ones who make us their friends or who are made our friends by us.

Hi, Some people do like that. If U want good friends to get attachment U must go on chatting with them continuously. U must mingle by heartily. If we chat continuously for some days We will get to know each other. Then we can become closer & closer. If U talk rarely nobody stays permanently. U must be in touch with them everyday.

what yo want is actually possible. but like love or respect, friendship is earned. you worked on it. it's going to be a bit difficult since you'e miles away but i believe, with constant communication, a friendship can be established between two people. don't worry if you're not so good with your english. we can always work around it..are you ready to be friends with me now? if you are, just send me a message or add me in friends list. i will do the same...

I do know how this feels considering you have done the same. I am shocked, not appalled! You're not the only one that has done this. Sign me up as a friends and then disappear, not even share their opinions to my topics of discussions. No positive nor negative response. It is very upsetting that this happens. Even when they do this, they give poor answers to my topics.. just to get credit, shame on them!! Whether I see your topic or not I do answer.., just not right away. I give it a day, then I come back give my comments. In some cases... someone else has taken the words from my fingertips. Bah humbug!! What did I do really except give my opinions. Sure they have been harsh but, they were honest! So I wonder if you'll answer or you friends will ever answer my topics of discussion, considering you are one of jazzafrazz's mylot friends......

Oh, it is not so hard... but you need a lot of lucky! Many are not always on mylot... have their life, their problem... you also need to accept this. If you need a daily net-friendship I think you don't must to search this on the net but in the real life... You are in my friend list but I don't answer everyday to your discussions and some I am not interested. But if I see an interesting post I answer! ok?

hello friend, i respect your sentiments. And i on my part tries to respond as many friends discussions as possible provided i find them interesting and worth the effort. I also like to maintain virtual friendship like you as one learns a lot from healthy interaction of views on different situations, different cultures. I feel happy when i am able to help my friend by posting good responses to their discussions. And when some friends thank me for it, it makes my day.

Keep adding and send personal message. You won't be lonely.
Because people don't know how to go back to the last response to check regularly. They always keep answering to new discusion. Any way, we can be a good and happy friendship here year for 2007.

Yes, i agree with you. I've had the same problem. People ask for your friendship and after that they disappear. This is a virtual world so don't expect friends like they happen to be in the real world. You need mutual trust and understanding to be friends. Thats exactly what the virtual world lacks. You seem to be a beautiful person from inside as you are from outside. we can become friends and try to remain friends forever if we both have trust and understanding. I am not going to disappear.What do you say, honey?

Life I think makes everyone busy or people here on MyLot are not taking friendship seriously. Its now two months now since I joined MyLot and in these two months I tried to develop friendship with many but no one replies more than 9 times. 9 times was from one lady with which I started a chain of replies which we used to write to each other on daily basis but she has also stopped. If you are intrested we can develop such chain, only one thing, you must leep the chain active and keep on replying. In this way you get to know each other alot better. Knowing each other good is the basic need of a friendship. Intrested ?
