Do you talk to the same people you talked to last year? The year before that? Perhaps even the year before that? Do you go from group to group on a regular basis and build strong friendships with people over a short amount of time, and then on to the next one?
Also, I agree w/ Swan. For the most part, I speak on a regular basis more to people online than I do real life friends. I think that's mostly because it's easier. In person you can find a spark with someone much quicker than you can online, although this too is something I think has been changing recently.
Ok Howl, when I say I message my internet friends more, I meant that if I'm having a casual convo via text/skype with people, they're likely to be my internet friends, not real life ones. I do seek advice from both equally. My real friends are only able to keep me company when we see each other in person. Internet friends can't do that unless you plan on meeting up lol
at least you wasn't like me and rejected every invitation to do something outside of school. people stopped bothering asking me after a while. biggest regret of my school life
I am getting mixed signals from what you're trying to say here.
Your real friends know you better, but your internet friends are who you get more advice from, and you do less important things with your real friends? It seems quite contradictory, but what do I know, I'm just an internet friend who doesn't know you very well.
Real friends and internet friends are definitely different. Internet friends are the ones who will always be available to keep you company. Real friends will keep you company when they can. Both can give advice on things such as relationship, drama etc but your real friends know you the best and they're able to tell you to get yourself together. Sure, Internet friends can give you the opinion, but just doesn't have the same context. I find myself texting/messaging my Internet friends more than my real friends. Whenever I text my real friends, it's usually like "hey what are you doing" "let's meet for lunch" lol

Things are a little better now, since I live with everyone at college now. My roommate is a killer dude, everyone on my old floor was cool, hopefully the same for the new, and my girlfriend is fantastic (and so are her friends).
