It seems that with the Internet in people's daily lives now, and with social networking and online gaming as well. Many people are being connected from all over the globe, meeting many people from different countries and cultures and getting to know that person.

Its so common for people online to begin longtime friendships with people online who've they never met before in real life. And I honestly don't see anything wrong with that, (well except for there cases that person may not be really that person, could be a bot, or could not even exist).

But yet why does it seem to many that many people argue it is unacceptable and stupid?

And before the Internet even existed, there was something similar (and still being used today), where you have pen pals who is anyone in the world you write letters to. They would then write back to you. In many cases it usually was during childhood mostly during school. But some people had pen pals while they were still adults. Some even were able to meet their pen pal in some cases as well.

So that could be the same thing many would argue as "unacceptable".

I have real friends in real life. Before I even got into the fascination with Internet, I did in fact had close friends who I played with.

But when I got into online gaming and Internet, I pretty much grew apart from my friends in real life. I still talked to them, but they simply just became my schoolmates. So I never hanged out with outside of school anymore.

While meanwhile I had began to gain a lot of friends online.

Then I guess I thought wrongly about this. I would of expected many on here to think this is unacceptable.

@Clirex

Then you could argue the same thing about pen pals in real life. Since you wouldn't know if they are telling the truth about themselves or not.

Most of you people are my friends, and you keep my atleast somewhat socially active and entertained when I have nothing else to do.

Some of you might be trash, but you're my trash.

Thanks, OT.

@clir
i can trust the person i met on roblox
actually i trust her more than a lot of my friends irl
reason: she gave me her instagram, it's a legit instagram, and it's actually her, plus why the hell would you try to catfish someone through roblox?? i think like 80% of people on roblox are trustworthy
