So true; most ‘online friends’ are so fake. Having said that I class you as a good friend now woollensocks! 😉

I’ve got 20 ‘chess.com’ friends however I only class a few of them as ‘real’ friends.

I HAD about 900+, deleted most b/c that is not real or legit. Even the friends I do have are not friends, and I probably should delete them too now that you bring this to my attention. The problem is when you delete them you run the risk of hurting their feelings. That would be why I would take no action.

Don't get into the mode of thinking these online folk are like real friends. Most people have no friends, some lucky ones have one friend. The number of friends you have on here means nothing other than you are gaming to max your friend count.

Exactly; I totally agree with you on this one.

When you agree with me on everything, well that would be weird.

But yeah, Hermione, don't let the Internet suck you into its rabbit hole. Leads nowhere. All this is just smoke and mirrors. It's not real. You want friends, go to church, get involved in activities, be social.

Why wouldn't I agree with you? You made some really valid point there. wink.png
