One in particular has lasted several years, he is an intricate part of my inner essence.
Also, several other people here, have increased my ability to believe in friendship once more.

I don't know about that...There's people I like and who like me back but I have never 'met' anyone in real time. Then there is some who I thougt liked me but found out different...so who knows.

Yes, I've made a decent amount of friends but probably only one or two that I consider to be close.

Quite a few.. I'm not sure they have really survived all this time but I get messages every now and then that carry on the friendship.

Of course new ones are popping up all the time. It's just a matter of being on the site frequently enough to meet new, interesting people. :)

Define "close" lol

I have formed friendships through AO. The people I now have on facebook are dearer to me but I don't truly know them. There is only one of them where the loss of friendship would make me upset.

I have a few levels of friends from here. Some are regulars that I talk to solely on here. Others are FB friends who I talk to pretty regularly. I've actually met 5 people though and really close to 2 of them. One lives in Connecticut, the other in Cali and I'm in NC. We talked for years and finally met up in Cali for first time at the Cali natives Wedding a couple of years ago. We talk all the time. In April we are going to meet back up in Cali for Girls weekend. Excited about that!

Another member owns a restaurant 10 min from me and I go in there all the time, talk to her regularly on FB and live 15 min from her and haven't met her. Yet I've met others from NY, FL, CT and CA. D'oh! lol

Yup, have met a few and plan on meeting a few more ;)

FB helps keep the friendships alive and really helps to get to know them in a closer way.

Yes a few close friendships but we don't message each other regularly. A couple I've talked to on the phone and met two in real life.

I don't think I have any friends on here, but the people I talk to now and then are a whole lot better than my friends that deserted me when I became unemployed....I would rather talk to people on here actually.
