these friends in the same fashion as you would with friends that you see on a daily or weekly basis ? I have quite a few friends that I have honestly never met face to face...they live all across the country, and in some cases, in other Countries...and share easily as much or more with these friends as I do with friends that I have locally... What is your take on "Internet friends" ?

Yes I do chat online and I do have a few close friends. Though I have one very very close that I tell just about everything too. He does live in the US actually in another state but not far, it's actually driving distance. We have never met each other but one day plan too. I think it would be totally neat to be honest. We do talk alot as well in chat and on the phone.. I do have some other friends though that I talk too but I don't get into deep conversations with them. I guess because i am afraid that i will be judged or it could be cause i don't know them very well.. As for local friends i do have some but i don't share the things with them as i do to my closest friend here online.

Thank you.. I am a very honest person and that's one thing people will get out of me.. I don't lie or make up stories to have people like me..

I chose your answer as the "best" because I think your answer , ultimately, was the most honest...you admit your fear of judgement..not too many people will do that..!!

It all started as a casual friendship here.As time went by we started sharing everything and become very close4.Though they are far away I can feel the warmth in their friendship.

Since I am using a nickname here, it is easier to tell more about myself without getting the shocked look, then I would with my real friends that I meet every day. Internet friends are good to discuss things with that you would not do otherwise. There are things that bother me that I cannot ask my husband or the people I know because they do not have the problem and think it should not matter, but some of the intimate friends have the same problem or similar and for them it does matter.
