Just a short post.
I feel I'm getting to
the point where I
don't want to be
flesh and blood people
and much prefer the
online forums.
That is all.

Phoenix1985, Hi...

Is it perhaps you feel safer and more in control than irl?
Sometimes I withdraw into the anonymity of being online, it's a retreat of sorts while things settle down in real life.

Best wishes,
Catherine

Yes, I know what you mean, I feel so awkward around "real" people that I just can't deal with it. I prefer my online buddies as well, I don't feel (as much) of a misfit here.

Aahh, the night is calling, and it whispers to me softly,

I'm the only one to blame.

I'm safe, up high, nothing can touch me, but why do I feel

I am sorry that you are struggling at this time. I hope things get better for you. It is hard to communicate sometimes with others, and you May even feel safer ONline since the commeraderie, understanding, and the support is better. Take care. Soidhonia

I've decided I want a wife and kids over the internet who've never met me or each other.. would be perfect!
(I thought it was funny, actually I suppose that's Second Life?)

I find RW friendships involve an interlocking with the other person, you can seem to be trapped with them, "cornered," a lot of people can't help being abusive or trying to take advantage when they think you have no escape. On the net you are obviously free as a bird, no point in even trying such nonsense.

RW friends probably require more assertiveness, skills in resolving the weirdo quirks of human nature.
