Friendship

March 9th, 2008 7:43 am MDT

There has been some disagreement about online friendship. Some people say you can not have true online friends, I for one completely disagree, what is a friend anyway? Someone who likes you for you are? But it goes deeper of course, you might share some common interests, dreams or possibly other friends. There is a degree of openness and trust and you feel deeply about your friend, love possibly.

Yes I know some people say you really do not know the people you meet online, and that is true, but how much do you know your friends that you meet in person, or even long time friends. Take a look at yourself, do your friends know you? Do they know you are on hormones? Do they know you need GRS? Or maybe even that you just perhaps like exploring your feminine side. Or do they know you have fantasies or date trans people? Or are those friends not true friends?

Yes there are for me quite a few people that I consider "true" friends, we share each others sadness, happiness we hurt when they hurt and yes, I would do anything for them, anything that I am able to do, just as I would friends that I have grown up with.

I have the pleasure of meeting some, but not all, and I feel the need to be in contact with them. Friends that you look forward in chatting with everyday and some that seem to drift away, but you still love them and worry about them and of course miss them very much!

Who knows what that hidden connection that you share with them, and why some you do not feel that connection. But that is the same for people I have met in person.

I love my friends!

     Well i agree with you but some might say i have to because I'm your girlfriend but i do have my own mind. Yes i have met some people online that i consider true friends and would do whatever i could for them. Just cause you don't touch them don't nessecarilly mean they're not a true friend.

     So thats my 15 cents worth on this subject.

     Oh yes I Love you and you are also right.

    I have always defined a friend as someone I care more about then the average person. AKA if something were to happen to them (be it good or bad), I would feel good or bad for them. Their are many people I have only meet online that I feel this way about. So that means I have many online friends. Of course their are those friends that are more then just friends, more like family. And yes I think you can have that level of friendship online too.


    Just my thoughts

    Re: Friendship Kelli Nicole E March 9th, 2008 3:48 pm MDT Hi Tammie,This was an excellent post, my Friend!  And, I've considered you, and Debra, good friends, pretty much ever since we "met" here, more specifically in the chat room.  I think you already know how much I adore and admire you girls!  I don't believe that we do need to meet in person to prove that we are friends, because, at least in my opinion, much like yours, I believe that people can be friends, good friends, online, even only online.  But, I also believe that, if it's possible, no guarantees of course, but I think those online-only friendships can develop even stronger, if they can be together in person.  But, of course, that's not always possible.  Having said that, I really do hope that I can meet you girls!  I haven't met many girls in person yet, under 10 actually, but the ones I have met, at least so far, have only been strengthened in our repective bonds of friendship.  Plus, I know from experience, that true love can also bloom online--this is how I met my wife, 9 years ago(on ICQ). :-)   Anyway, thank you for your opinion on this topic, Tammie.  It was easy for me to see how much you care for your fellow sisters before you posted this entry...this only solidifies that feeling. :-)  Friends forever, girl! ((HUGS))With Love,Kelli
