a receptive ear


a virtual shoulder


and someone, somewhere is always ready to listen





....only iffin more real people were like this.
Reply:Well, at first glance, I could say yes. There's a particular online friend of mine whom I always tell personal things to. Things that I couldn't even tell my mom. But then again that online friend doesn't know what I look like or doesn't know my mannerisms, the way I behave outside this textbox and other day-to-day things about me so I guess they don't really know me very well.
Reply:I think you tend to be less guarded with your online friends than you are with your real friends. You're also not doing anything but talking to your online friends and are better able to get to know each other in a shorter amount of time because youre not watching a movie or being distracted by some other activity.
Reply:*BIG HUG!*





... keep hoppin'!
Reply:no
Reply:hmmmmm good question.....in some ways i guess, i would say that they all know me in a different way some know certain parts of my life that others dont especially with questions and answers my "real life friends wouldnt know some of the things my other friends do because they would never have asked or i would never have ask them certain things......hmmmm some thing like that
Reply:yes
Reply:hi yes I do your very special Hugs
Reply:I think we all genuinely like each other, and we find time for each other,,,we care about each other...and we don't care what anyone looks like, or how much money is in their bank,,,no one uses you......its like a close community....and its like our own little secret town
Reply:Well some of them! I have met some wonderful people here on YA! Wolfkiss, Sawman, Demetrius I would love to meet Wolfkiss though I feel we know each other even though we have never met! We seem to have a kindred spirit we enjoy the same small pleasures. The simple things, though I am blessed with many wonderful friends in this life most of them live far from me. I live in a very small town in a very beautiful desert. I enjoy you and your questions and answers as well! Happy new year!
Reply:N O!!!!!!!
Reply:like people on yahoo answers? yea. lol
Reply:yes i do
Reply:Yes!!
Reply:There are certainly things that I tell some of you guys on here that I don't tell my "real life" friends. I feel like maybe my online friends are a little less judgemental.
Reply:somewhat...I feel I can express myself better by writing it than saying it sometimes!
Reply:uhm, i don't think so. before, yes.
Reply:Yep...sometimes!
Reply:The friends I have here are the only ones that act like they want to be around me for friendship. My so called every day friends remember who I am when they need something. It's getting a little old :)
Reply:Well I'm different around my online friends than real friends.


I LOVE the online world, I can just be my wacky self =]
Reply:Considering most of the online people don't even know my name, no.
Reply:nope
Reply:In some cases I can be more honest w/ them because I know I'll probably never meet them. And were I to meet them, knowing our flaws and all that may make for a better relationship.
Reply:Seems that way...!!!
Reply:They may know more of my opinions and views but that is only a small part of who I am. So I'd say no. My real life friends know me best.
Reply:Since they only know and believe what you tell them, I'd say no. Your 'real-life' friends know the intimate details, since they have 'front row center' in your life and what goes on in/with it...
Reply:...sometimes.....freaky lol =]
Reply:i think we have a different kind of connection (online friends) than my real life friends and i think sometimes you may feel they understand you...but only from a limited perspective....
Reply:It happens to me with a very few people on here, and you are one of them.

Survey: Guys - have you had any inflatable friends.....?

had a space hopper

Survey: Guys - have you had any inflatable friends.....?
An inflatable boy was sitting at his inflatable desk in his inflatable school. He suddenly jumped up and stabbed his desk and the walls. Running out of the classroom he met the inflatable headmaster, who he stabbed. In a fit of remorse he then stabbed himself.





Later he wakes up in hospital almost completely deflated. In the bed next to him is the headmaster who says to him;





"You have let me down and you have let the school down but much much worse than that you have let yourself down"
Reply:I have not ,but when my buddy was in the army his wife and I went to the adult store and bought him one and shipped it to Iraq. He got a good laugh out of it but the army took it away from him.
Reply:No. You need to direct this question to an institution to find those guys.
Reply:nope....
Reply:Aren't friends electric.
Reply:No,





But I have slept with a girl who looked like she had been blown up a bit too much.
Reply:A sheep called mavis, she is still in the box though, honest!!

Survey :- Do You think twice before making friends?

i don't..... lol

Survey :- Do You think twice before making friends?
yup! i do!





true friends hardly come in life,%26amp; when they come,one shouldn't let them go cuz of small-small fights!





"There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship."





so forget whatever fights/misunderstandings happened,just try to think fo the laughter which you shared together,those jokes %26amp; all..true friends never leave,nor one should let them go.





keep smiling!


stay happy!
Reply:No I don't, I have been fortunate to have very good friends, so far no one has given me any reason to have to think twice...but there is a difference in how close you choose to get with some friends. I have different categories of friends, some are just nice to talk with on superficial level and others are like family and know everything about me. I am a very friendly person, but I don't allow just "any friend" of mine to get too close, only the ones who I know to be sincere and who truly care for me. So far this has worked very well for me :)
Reply:I do, and here after i will think even 100 times before making a friend.





Cus some people act as if they are pure, real and caring gentelman in the beginning, but as time goes on and when they become very close to us, they try to show their real attitude which we cannot justify and which is totally intolerable.





This happened to me just few minutes ago with one of my long time best friend.





Therefore, i decided that i would think atleast 10 times before making a friend hereafter.








Cheers!
Reply:no..making friends should be natural..why would someone purposely isolate themselves from someone?
Reply:Yes, I will think 10,000 times from now.
Reply:sometimes i think and sometimes i dont








best of luck!!


keep smiling:)))))
Reply:i don't think. But i got 3 best friends on whom i can trust more than me. M the most luckiest person,o yea.
Reply:Probably.


pkn
Reply:Yeah.....!
Reply:not exactly. its got to take time and happen naturally, its not a test!!!
Reply:i try to it doesnt work to well sometimes lol
Reply:Not even once...
Reply:i nvr give second thought before making frnds.................
Reply:Yes. Actually I take a lot of time to make friends.
Reply:no
Reply:no.....

Would you ever date your best friends x..not an old ex but new like 6mo to a year(poll survey)?

never, its a rule, never date a friends ex. unless the guy/girl is more important to you then the friend

Would you ever date your best friends x..not an old ex but new like 6mo to a year(poll survey)?
Even though I think dating a friends ex is perfectly acceptable. Assuming your friend is okay with it, and you were not the cause of the breakup. I personally wouldn't do it. I would always have doubts about their feelings for each other. I don't think feelings die just because the relationship is over. And seeing an ex is always going to ignite some emotions regardless if it's good or bad.
Reply:Not intentionally. But I accidentally dated my best friends girlfriend a few years ago. Well she seemed honest but was not even close. Doesn't date either of us anymore. Too bad for him and I. She was the best Kisser I have ever been with by far.
Reply:If I really liked him and he really liked me back - Sorry but my friends just gena have to get over it - afterall there over!
Reply:Sometimes you can't help who you fall in love with!
Reply:no a few of my friends have actually been in that same situation and it did not turn out good for them at all. The best friends are not even talking anymore.
Reply:nope i would not because there would be something wrong with him if she got rid of him there would be something that is not right and iwoudlnt' want no part of it
Reply:no, i would never. i might fantasize about it, but i wouldn't do it.
Reply:If they were everything I wanted, I would definitely get permission from my best friend first... then I'd date them.
Reply:I almost did that before...But I didnt know any better the girl has some legs u cnat refuse!....But after I found out she was his ex I stopped.
Reply:Not right away, there is a time period for that sort of thing and I believe you must ask permission of your friend first.
Reply:Negative... That's totally off limits!
Reply:Recent exes are off limits if the wounds are still there from the breakup.
Reply:All of my present dates were my best friends once.
Reply:depends
Reply:yea......im trying to date them right now! but he's asleep

Take a look at the cars and the crib
Reply:the first answerer has it absolutely right.





Sometimes people are only in our lives for a reason or a season. It's something we have to accept. It would be great if our "friends" were in our life for a lifetime. Often, it doesn't happen that way though. Just cherish the good times. :)
Reply:sometimes i have my doubts about out relationships but i try not to dwell on our differences because that is what puts the thought that they may stop liking you in your head
Reply:My best friend , No. My so called friends, I have lost many of them because they think I am too weird or boring. I am very anti social.
