Default Making new Online Friends

These days its not easy to make good friends, and sometimes because your in the same friends circle or don't go out much it becomes even more difficult.

One of the best ways to making friends or getting to know someone is from websites either social networking ones or ones which are designed for making friends. There are lots of sites, but only some good and reputed ones, which i don't obviously know of, so let me know of any so i can pass these onto someone.

Thanks

in that case you can give her my AOL, Gtalk, Y!Messanger or Live ID

ok then you can ask her to come here and make friends, this place is far much better than those social network sites

@ Mad - i totally forgot about the forum.....

@ Aashaka - yeh its sheer luck sometimes on who you know and what they are like, i suppose meeting up always comes at the end, its a bad bad world out there!

lol Tell that to Aashaka

Generally Tech related forums are always filled with members who know too much and so are very ego-istical includig the mods themselves ..... I think this forum is the only exception , atleast among Indian forums ......

That being said online friends can never replace your everyday friends .... so she should invest some time in getting good friends offline ......

Generally my thumb rule is never to bank on internet for finding friends ...... many psychopaths love to use the internet to latch on to innocent victims online as it provides them with anonymity ...... internet crime is seriously on the rise

Forums are a great place to meet people who have the same or similar interest to you.

I have made many friends over the years via forums. It's much better than making friends with random strangers on somewhere like facebook.
