Internet Chatting

Hola amigos! :D Just before I start my topic, I just wanted to say, THIS IS MY 102ND POST! :D This blog has passed the 100 posts mark! So thanks guys, for supporting me all this way; I couldn't have gotten this far without you...ok, maybe I could've, but it would've been really boring. :P So thanks.

Ok. So about 2 weeks ago I realized that on the internet, chatting is like, super opposite. Like, the people that always ignore you in real life are really SUPER EASY to talk to like, on Gmail, or Facebook, or whatever, and you seem to be super cool life long buddies! Yaay..

But the people who are your actual really close friends in real life are really hard to talk to on the internet. For me, they're always preoccupied, or we just have nothing to talk about. Same with emails.

And long lost friends! Like, people that I were really close with in elementary, and then I moved, I don't even talk to anymore. Other than like.....a few messages on Facebook to wish them happy holidays, or whatever, and then sometimes we can keep emails going for a month. But then we just give up or something and start ignoring each other. :( It's sad but I can't do anything about it.

I just think that's really ironic...The people who don't have the nerve or think that they're just too good for you and don't talk or even look at you during the day (or just don't notice you) are your new best friends on the internet...I think it has something to do with looking at my face. D:

And then your super super close friends know that you love them no matter what, so they don't have to talk to you all the time, lol.

Then those long lost friends....well, we can't keep conversations going anymore. It just gets really awkward, since our lives are so different, and we think totally different now.

But there's STILL those people that you aren't SUPER close with, but you're still friends, and you can talk to them anytime. :) That's cool. It's like...a mutual relationship.

So: moral/theme of this whole post - real friends are never going to be made on the internet. You guys have to love each other on and off screen, and the most important times you'll spend together are offline. Not like..."OMG! Yay, blackdemon_22454, you're my new best friend! We defeated an ogre together! :D". NO NERDS, NO NO NO. YOU NEED TO GET OUT MORE AND REALIZE THAT 1. OGRES DON'T EXIST IN NORMAL LIFE, AND 2. PEOPLE DON'T HAVE THOSE NAMES IN REAL LIFE, EITHER.

In the end, no matter how cool and..new these technological things are, they'll never beat those eternal things like friendship, love, etc. (That's why these online dating things aren't the best, either.)
