internet friendships and the like

i think it's crazy how attached we can become to people that we never met and that we only talk to online. on my buddy list i have about 50 people. i know thats a lot of people to some people but to me its pretty normal. i can talk to someone every day for a month and feel like we're best firends in the world. i get excited when their name lights up or when i get an email from them. then they stop coming online. i stop getting emails. i realized that once my messenger is closed those people no longer exist. they exist only in that little cyber world that only exists when i turn on my computer. its so rare that i turn off my computer and think of a person i talk to online. i guess that once you right click and delete that name in a way their dead and never really existed.

but then there are those people that a few and far in between that you think about just a little bit more. or you feel so close to them even if you never really talked or never really met. i never really posted but this was really bothering me because over the last few weeks i've been really concerned for a couple of bloggers that i normally go read. so simply curious girl this post is for you and i want you to know that i really consider you my friend and i hope you don't stop blogging like the other couple of blogs i used to read really regularly. you asked me to post so here it is.
