Online Friends

What? I would never tell irl friends my darkest secrets, they know me personally. Online friends mostly don't even know my real name, I don't care if they know I like traps.

Meatspace is not conducive to getting your social needs met. In real life people are three-dimensional pig disgusting. They have BO, bad breath, they spit when they talk, they're fat, ugly, have stupid tattoos and dress like faggots. Or they're big strong aggressive alpha men I can't even look at without going into flight or fight mode. No wonder most normies need to drink alcohol in order to be around people for so long- and find it fun and relaxing.

>Today I felt so different and at peace being able to talk to someone on a deep level instead of someone far away behind a screen.
On the internet, and furthermore when anonymous- so I'm not judging someone by their username, picture or profile stats, its a level playing field, and people can communicate solely in the present, and respond to each other in an exchange of pure dialogue, not distracted my the physical reality of being a disgusting human animal. Also, in an increasingly litigious global police state, this is the only kind of place we can truly express our real selves and speak the most unpopular of opinions- then claim it was all unserious shitposting if anyone ever finds out.

> you can be way more open and intimate. You can tell them your darkest secrets and they'll understand, because they've been right there with you.
Yeah, it feels uncomfortable being a burden on a friend telling them my worst problems. I wouldn't want my friends telling me how bad their life sucks, like me they should figure it out on their own or see a therapist, I don't like downers and I don't want to be one. You may think it helps, but complaining to your friends about your personal problems is, more often than not, just annoying, and commiserating together just makes you both feel even worse.

I've never had a close irl friend in my life.
I've gotten close to a few people online but I'm too crazy for people to keep around for long.

im glad you found that to be the case anon good for you.for me though desu i am completely unable to have meaningful personal relationships irl outside my family idk why because im honestly not like you ragingly weird i think i am just too shy but yeah like for me online relationships are the only relationships and i think i can get a lot deeper with them

well thats kind of his point though. in a intimate relationship you WOULD care if they thought you liked traps. the confession isnt as meaningful if its to someone you dont care about, you wont truly feel absolved until someone you admire tells you its ok

>I want to believe that online friends have the potential to be as valuable as friends in real life
Why would you ever think this? Online friends are for sharing shitty puns and anime memes, nothing deeper.

But there is always the risk of them not accepting your secret (liking traps was just an example) and spreading it, or stop talking to you.
I feel like when I make an online friend, the first things he learn about me are my dark sides, and if he keep talking to me he'll learn the good things, so I can consider him a trustworthy friend. But when I make an irl friend, I have to keep a good image, and so does he, so there's still the possibility of him being an asshole.
