Who cares what this judgmental relative of yours thinks of your friendships? I agree with what everyone else has said on here, especially lonleyheart22. From now on, don't tell her about any of your friendships.
Let her calls go to v.m and her emails ignored if she asks you about this. The only real issues with online friendships is that sometimes maintaining a long distance friendship can be difficult. Also, some people tend to see online friendships as being more disposable. You just have to be careful in knowing who is genuine and those who are just bored and passing time until someone else comes along.
You do have to be more careful with people that you meet online. Just because they're you're friends online though, that doesn't mean that they're any less of a friend IMHO. Like I said, don't tell your nosy relative anything else about these friendships. Just ignore her from now on or change the subject.
Just say that your happy with the friends that you have now and leave it at that. Say that you have to go talk to your friend now if she insists on knowing more about what's going on, lol.
