Online Friends

Have you ever had one? How did you meet them? Are you sill friends? If so, do you still play games together? If not, why did you part ways?

I met a friend through a chatango for Project Melee in like 2013. We added each other on skype and would chat between matches. I haven't talked to him or played smash competitively in years - we just moved on I guess. :(

Met some on 7chan, we used to play tf2 together but we fell apart. I miss you faggots.

>have a good bro I met on Yea Forums 10 years ago
>over the coming years and partially as a result of some tranny we encountered on Yea Forums, he realises he's also a tranny
>things are okay for years but we slowly lose touch
>this year they get back in contact and basically only talk about politics and how none of the presidential candidates are left enough for them
I just want my friend back, not this soulless husk

Isn't he a tranny now?

If I add you will you ignore me or dox me on discord or somr gay shit?

i have plenty of online friends. most of them ive been through playing mmos.
we still all chat together and play games together after all these years.
we used to rely on steam to keep in touch but discord made things easier.

Lots. Never had real friends. Some were minor, but I had many that I kept in touch with for many years. I have met a few in person, one of them from Yea Forums.

They were all cool, but most fizzle out inevitable (unfortunately), people just move on. I have noticed that those you meet in person tend to stay in contact longer, though their interests still change.

I've met 2-3 online friends in real life.
One of them is a bro who I'm meeting back up with later this year for a weekend of revelry.
I met a girl on VRchat and we ended up going away for the weekend and we fucked, but we barely talk h
Now. Think she hates me because I told her I didn't want anything like a relationship.
There's also an online dude I've known for months who lives in the same city as me but hes 17 so we've not met up yet.

I won't add you then, I wanted a girlfriend(male) that I could spoil

I've been bros with a few but fell out with most over the years besides one. We met through Diablo 2 around 2002 when we were both in middle school. Played a shit ton of multiplayer games throughout HS and college years eventually flying to visit each other a few times.
We don't play much vidya these days but we still chat regularly and take vacations at the same time to travel together.

The common theme is that you meet people playing multiplayer games. But what if you aren't into any? I'm not opposed to them, but I suck and would prefer something casual. It seems most online games are competitive and unfun for people who don't want to practice.

Had an scottish friend in the earlier days of the xbox 360 we played a lot of mw2 and halo3 together
Then we just grew distant and stopped talking
I miss you gavin

A women dm me on words with friends. We met in real life when she was in the area for work. I should check up on her because of the hurricane.

I've met people on /vg/ but I don't know what to talk about besides the game so it never goes very far.

You have me added but we haven't talked since a couple of days after you added me. We were going to play vidya together

I've had plenty of online friends. I've met up with two of them from Steam, but we barely hang out too much due to adult commitments like studying and work. Hoping to see one of them next year when he's free from work.

In my experience, I don't make friends with users from Yea Forums because they're usually underage or annoying memers who can't hold a proper conversation.

I still talk to some guys that all went to the same Nintendo forum years ago. Everyone ended up moving from IRC to discord though.

Post yfw you find out she's been impaled by a telephone pole

I've met some. There's one that sticks out in particular, but just like that one screencap, terrorists came and fucked him up. RIP little buddy.

When the PS3 launched, I made a friend from Poland and we would play a ton of mp and would always help each other with hard mp trophies,but as the PS4 launch drew near, I switched to mainly playing on PC and we talked less and less. I finally got a PS4 about 2 years ago and he's still on my friends list. Neither of us have made the first move.

I used to have 2 really good friends I met in an MMO, but they don't talk to me anymore and it makes me sad because they were the only friends I've had as an adult.

>Play MMO with 90% Japanese playerbase
>know Japanese from mormon mission
>Wake up every morning bright and early to play with my Japan bros
>Have several friends who have a place for me in their homes whenever I decide to visit them

It's a nice feeling.

I've had online friends, never met them irl though.
However, I HAVE met my boyfriend irl, and I met him online.

I make my friends through this site. There's alot of trashy people but I've found some diamonds.

That would be nuts

My steamfriend vanished sometime before the christchurch attack.
bros..... he.... didn't right?

I live with three people I met, directly or indirectly, from this god forsaken website. It's comfy

Imagine the smell

>Have you ever had one?
Yes
>How did you meet them?
Dota 2
>Are you sill friends?
Yes
>If so, do you still play games together?
Yes

I met 3 friends through Dota who I am still friends with today and play games with. We also all met up together in real life at Dota's The International tournament after knowing each other for a couple years and split a hotel. Was a really cool experience and they are probably going to be life long friends.

I was once part of a group of 8 constant with 4 or so floaters that would play RO on various private servers for almost 10 years.

Had many friends through years and they all gone now. I'm such a terrible mess of a friend.

I only play online games with IRL friends, apparently the reverse of the norm here

I met a guy on phantasy star universe in 2008.
In 2010 i met some of his friends. All three of us play still but on pc. They will be my groomsmen too when i marry my highschool gf. Dont call me a liar cause im not socially inept and have had sex

I've been online friends with this one guy for almost 3 years now. We wanted to meet each other in person, but he lived in Georgia and I lived in California. Due to pure dumb luck an autism magic, my parents helped arrange a trip for me to visit him.

Was a magical feeling seeing him in person for the first time, like someone you always new but meeting him for the first time again.

I guess we are now real life friends?

Are you a real or a fake

Do you mean straight online friends? As in people you never met previously in person, and instead you met them strictly through the internet? I never had any of those. I only ever played with people that I actually met irl. Never did the internet friend thing.

This is just embarrassing

What in the everliving fuck, are you me? I've a friend who browsed /jp/ a decade ago and they decided they wanted to be a tranny and their entire personality has gone 180* after taking whatever fucking medicines they take and are now an extremely far-left individual and find everything toxic. It's ridiculous to see how brainwashed my friend became after deciding they wanted to be a "girl".

Had a couple from Mirc and played online games together and meet them irl to do stuff like local play and sport tournaments. But people grow up and eventually lose touch with each other. More when others get girlfriends even if is just for a short period of time, things change a lot.
I eventually became a loner with years. Dont have much patience for girls either, the times I did care it was a waste of time

>meeting people on weekends during PSO DC days
>everyone wanted to have their own guild
>always enjoyed to be free so never joined one
>still get invited to parties and shared weapons and mags around

It was great. Playing with japanese it was also great, even if their english was pretty broken you still could get them in the lobbies

Dinner sounds nice. But again, I'm no slut. Be my boyfriend or buzz off if you're going write stuff like that to no avail.

Yes, had 2 different groups of internet friends met through WoW. One in Wrath and the other in MoP. Both had a falling out with because I am a retard who doesn't know how to leave quietly on a high note. Both times I pushed things too far until I had a meltdown and was too ashamed to return, although there was definitely a lot of hostility in the first group because the leader was a hothead manlet.

I learned a lot from these events and they made me better as an individual, but sometimes I wish I could go back and do it right. Some of them were great people that I wish I could talk to about current events. One was easily the funniest guy I have ever known, dude could have me laughing hysterically in minutes with only his voice. We would stay up all night long on school nights watching youtube poops dying of laughter. Didn't end well for my grades!

Not sure if that counts but I think almost all of my online friends come from my irl friends making online friends and them then hanging out with us on voice.
Some of them have become quite good friends even.

I was just testing you user, honest!
I wanted to make sure you weren't a slut. Though I'd be a liar if I said I wouldn't have minded that much either way.

I like RTS and RPG mostly with abit of racing but also co-op stuff like Vermintide 2, Killing Floor etc. I shamelessly play VRchat with full body also. You?

Attached: 2dc.jpg (900x900, 342K)

>fuck that guy
why?

I play every genre except Grand Strategy. There's no going wrong with me. There's no racing games I enjoy on PC though.
>RTS
A genre I like but am not great at. I won't play Starcraft though.
>RPG
Very nice but there's alot. You better start naming some.

Is doing all of this really worth it for me just to suck your e-cock?

I never had more than 3 active friends, I lost a good one due to paranoia. Guy was a chad who knew everybody, He was my weed dealer too, And i was his vip customer, He practically lived at my house, We hung out all day despite being me being a neet loser. He invited me to party's, Got me out of the house. Tried to bring me into his group of friends etc.
But alas, Being a 24/7 high autist i questioned his loyalty, Figured he only wanted a place to smoke weed and constant cash source, So i basically cut him out of my life, He told me once he lost a lot of friends over the years, And that he doesn't lose me too. Thanks for reading my book

>Thanks for reading my book
It was gay and I hope you are worse off for having done the actions you described if they are in fact true because you deserve it

Because deep down he knew that was going to be him in the future too.

can you trannies fuck off to discord

eh, maybe so

Look at Dwayne the Main Brain Mclane over here

Humph. The Backstreet Boys. Obviously.

I may be somewhat jaded, but someone I met ten years ago and considered closer as a friend than anyone I know IRL recently became a tranny and the past six months has barely spoken or made an effort to be my friend. Waste of ten years if you ask me, stick to IRL buds.

Wtf user are you me:

A close real life friend from a few years back has basically become my semi-online friend, moving to a different city is a bitch sometimes. He's introduced me to a new friend of his in the past, so that's basically the only 100% online friend I have. I love you both

I haven't played Starcraft. I'm quite low on the meter if RTS but I enjoy what I've played. Driving games I stick to console mostly. When it comes to RPGs I recently enjoyed Nioh and cant wait for Nioh 2. Divinity 2 is another one in recent times.
The original Mass Effect, KOTOR are also highlights. I have a secret love for Oblivion but probably because I grew up with it.

Oh yeah I almost forgot about that.....huh. I guess you really do want me as your boyfriend since cock is still on your mind.

I've had a few. I've had tons if you're just talking about people I semi-regularly talk with, but I've had a handful of really good online-only friends over the years. I still semi-actively search for them, especially since I have night-owl hours for an American so I really appreciate having some good internet buds on a similar schedule, but they're harder to find now that I'm a decrepit old man and don't give a shit about most of what's popular.

Good taste all around. And yeah, driving games are on the console. Midnight Club, Forza, etc. I hate Project Cars, DIRT and the others on PC. Divinity is a godsend. I never get bored with it.
>I almost forgot about that
Yeah right. Don't lie to me. The only reason it's on my mind is because of you. It's all your fault. Shame on you. Live in the US and we'll exchange contacts.

I have an online friend who fell for the pol nazi meme, but it's clear most of the stupid shit he spouts is just surface level information where he can't really hold an argument if poked and prodded. I just want to play video games and not hear about jews did this and jews did that every turn, it gets tiring.

I got a ton of them. Met them on an MMO and we all play games, talk in voice chat, and bullshit regularly.

Been there, user. it's insufferable when they yell DEUS VULT DEUS VULT when all you're trying to do is play some Warframe.

Actually became fairly good friends with a dude precisely because of bitching about /pol/aks. Though it only grew into that after bitching about memes. And weebs. We typically spend an hour or two every day bitching about Yea Forums posters and then talking about Pathologic.

Based. Can't wait to vote for Kween Kamala #2020 and return to sanity like you fren!

Is there a single legitimately heterosexual person left on Yea Forums to just play video games with

About five or six, mostly because my mom never let me go to public school, I only still talk and play vidya with only two of them which i've developed an unhealthy obsession with them because they're the only ones who have actually stuck with me this long despite my constant self deprecation and being a general downer

if you play MHW we can be friends bro

Through the Miitomo threads on Yea Forums. We made porn of each other. Fun shit.

Yes, but not through Miitomo anymore.

Haven't played games once.

I started writing fetish porn on Deviantart in 2016. Some guy saw me on there and thought I was cool. Invited me to a Discord server (which was a service I'd never used before). Introduced me to a lot of really cool people, some of whom I managed to network with for legitimate, non-fetish porn work commissions.

The kicker? The guy who invited me to Discord lived 20 minutes from me, and we've been IRL friends for three years now.

Still in a discord of like 60 people who all met in teamspeak like 6 years ago playing league of legends

About 15 of us have met up irl and we're all pretty good friends at this point I'd say. Most everyone still in touch.

Yes you fucking loser.
You literally have to actively try not to make friends online to not have them, just play and have fun and add people you're having fun with, if you've been gaming for several years and you haven't made friends you should unironically kill yourself, pathetic virgin loser.

No, user. I'm the one erping about pounding slutty boiholes. That's how you know I'm EXTRA straight.

Yep. Sharing a house with a guy I met on Black Ops 1. Us and a small group of friends have played most playstation titles together for the past 6 years or so. Looking forward to playing Borderlands 3 with all of them.

>watch streams since 09
>make friends that still play games with you today

I met my friend Joe playing a not too popular third person shooter about eight years ago, and it turns out we both have a general inclination towards the same type of games. He's been my coop partner for years and I'm proud to call him my friend.

These types of things just don't work out for me, bros...

I was hoping this'd end with a reveal you rused them all into coming then killed them or something. What the fuck.

hi tyler

no bitch we just had a comfy time

not him but warmer.

I used to only have two online friends, had them since 2012. One of them killed himself a few years back after he proposed to his gf of five years and she rejected him, the other one I still talk to and occasionally play games with.

Now I have a few IRL friends who play with me and we pick up randoms to play with fairly often. Have a discord server with ~20 fine gents who are fun to play with and we're fairly close with a couple of them, even met one of them in person already.

What kinds of games do you play (examples are fine)? What times are you usually available? Would you be willing to use a mic?

Why is non-fetish porn "better" than fetish porn in this circumstance?

I made a bunch of friends that will likely be friends for a very long time due to Mechwarrior Online of all fucking games. I had a few that I made through WoW also ages ago but we lost touch and I haven't talked to them for a while. I try to every so often but I get the feeling they're sick of me now.

I've also gotten 3 girlfriends from Yea Forums, one of which I got here on Yea Forums in like 2009 because I literally made a thread saying "I want a gamer girl gf". Times really are changing.

Uhh a lot of stuff, MHW is currently the main game I am playing. The only stuff I don't play is RTS. When I'm available usually depends on my work schedule. I'm fine using a mic

Meet all of my Online friends in Gmod community and one IRL friend, IRL friend plays csgo and insurgency that time and now playing weebshit games like SAO and Anime VN on steam. Gmod Friends unfriended me only have one left and we play siege ended up quitting vidya and offlines.

Beta males are a mistake.

Ah, we mostly play older games, not sure if you'd want to do that. World at war zombies, worms, risk of rain, halo, tf2, that's what we've been playing lately.

No, I seem totally incapable of making friends, nobody wants to talk to me so I just keep quiet.

I am not gonna disclose who I am, but I donated money to a quite famouse female streamer and she eventually started to treat me like a person and then it escalated to meet her IRL and becoming friends and now we live in the same house too, I'm gay tho.
Sure it wasn't a normal thing, I had to spend 30k $ from my family bank account, but they're fucking rich so it didn't hurt much to my ego.
Just go on Twitch and devote your life to someone, he will eventually become your friend online and offline.

So... 10 years after, did you finally get your gamer girl gf?

All the gamer girl pee he could ever drink. Just imagine.

To all the desperately lonely sad saps out there, don't do this. this is a false flag. Streamers do not want to get to know the people giving them money.

And his own personal sweaty gamer girl feet too, and buttocks. Sweaty, hairy pits to boot. A gamer girl wouldn't shave. Life would be a dream...

>I got here on Yea Forums in like 2009
good times, I met two of mine through the Yea Forums MSN add threads through 2007-2009.

I'm desperately lonely but I never added any faggot here despite knowing that the faggots here are the true and honest friends I'll ever have.

I made some friends in a game called Clonk in 2004/2005 and we still talk to each other on TeamSpeak every single day. Though we don't play video games together as much anymore, it's still great to have them around.

why

Imagine Yelena rubbing her dirty feet in your face.

I'm a lonely fag and would love to make some friends

Don't game online though. Maybe I should get into that? The whole voice chat aspect spooks my social anxiety.

>tfw no Yea Forums shitposter gf because you live in a shitty third world country which has like 10 people who know what Yea Forums is, and you know half of them

You just need to try. You'll get used to it quickly. Just try once. The outcome doesn't really matter.

Having a common interest that you can share together would help a whole lot, especially when you're still in the getting to know eachother phase. If you could find an online game you like it'd open some doors. Co-op games are good to get started. Anyone talking on those can be assumed to be willing to make friends.

Some people are fine with just text chatting, but usually voice chat is preferred unless you're an underagefag. Which you're not, right?

you're the biggest cuck I've seen on Yea Forums all year, congrats.

And I don't know man. I'm just kind of an awkward, boring person. Recommend me some games though if you would?

Reminder to cut ties with all your desperate betamale friends that would fall for shitty e-sluts or beat it into their skull that no whore you meet online is ever worth your attention let alone your time.
Not saying to actively avoid females, just make sure your loser friends won't waste their time falling in-love with them and doing things that would hurt their real friends.

Having this filter on people makes for unbreakable friendships and you're left with a group of people who genuinely enjoy vidya like yourself.

I have a group of online friends I'm still currently in touch with on Discord. Everyone is relatively chill, but there's also the occasional arguments or debates flowing about as well. Lately though, I've been avoiding this one friend from that group who.....let's jusy say has become incredibly stubborn and arrogant the past year or two. He turned into THAT kind of friend. You know, the one with a massive ego and wants to start shit flinging on every chance they can. On top of trying to front their intellegence. To give you an idea of how he is, he purposely tries to rile up people to see how they respond from a psychological standpoint. Yup.

However, I can't exactly confront him or call him out on his shit cuz that'll rock the group. Some people like him, and hell, he's even DATING one of my friends in that group.

He was never like this the first time I met him, and he's becoming worse and worse as time goes on. It's...exhausting to say the least.

yes, plenty
some were just restricted to one game and we lost touch after the game died (e.g. WoW). some became irl friends, some i met on twitch, we played together and nowadays we just shitpost in a whatsapp group like the normies be became over the years. also met my gf of 9 years ingame

Whatever game you play you'll probably have to start conversations, fair warning. A lot of the time you'll meet people who will talk as little as possible. Occasionally you'll meet friendly people though, and all you have to do is ask if they'd like to play again another time and add them as a friend.

Anyway, most of the friends I've met online were in TF2 and world at war zombies. I think a lot of other games could work though, off the top of my head gmod, runescape, overwatch, halo, are also good candidates. I'm sure there are more but those are ones I've enjoyed and remember meeting people on.

Hopefully you'll stop viewing yourself as awkward and boring someday. You'll have to learn how to do that though, nothing anyone else can say will make you overcome your insecurity. When you don't grow up socially successful it's hard to realize that everyone can make friends, it just requires effort and an acceptance that a majority of the time you'll meet people you don't get along with.

larp faggot

some people just don't want to go around swirling in a pool of self hatred anymore.

That's sad for you guys but know they're probably happier deciding not be a repressed edgelord anymore.

But that would be gay user!

Not them but there's a difference between trying to search for peace and love in your life and going o the opposite extreme finding everything that you don't like toxic and abusive. You're way more likely to get hurted and explode if you go this way, same as with being an edgelord. You gotta find a balance.
They might just be exaggerating though

How come it's either a Marxist transgender or an, ahem, "repressed edgelord"?

I THOUGHT THIS WAS HAGRID

Met a guy on here and we've been friends for years now. Cool dude.

>When you don't grow up socially successful it's hard to realize that everyone can make friends, it just requires effort and an acceptance that a majority of the time you'll meet people you don't get along with.
Wow man, this really hit home. Thanks for sharing your experiences as well as offering the advice. I gotta try to meet some people IRL via gaming/hobbies too. I'm pretty tired of being friendless and sad all the time. Problem is I'm too inept to know where to begin.

Anyone else in a bizarre situation where they're good at having solid romantic relationships, yet have absolutely no idea how to make plain ol' friends?

I remember thinking as a lonely teen that I would never have friends and certainly NEVER have a GF.

Turned out the dating/GF has been fine over the years, but the idea of friendship absolutely terrifies me and gives me anxiety. It is literally an alien concept to me because I haven't had a friend since I was a kid. I'm 27 now.

The commitment of having to talk to multiple people a day sounds awful. Having friendships sounds like a job.

I'm sorry for your loss.

I basically only have online friends at this point.

>Almost die in an accident, end up in hospital for 2 months

>Wake up, brother tells me about it, get phone back, pop on to IRC
>Entire server tells me how worried they were about me, everyone wishing me well, lots of friends privately DMing me telling me how much they care about me
This was nearly a decade ago and it still brings a tear to my eye remembering it, the thought that people that had never even met me cared about me that much kills me.

I met plenty of people in Dota 2 back in 2012 / 2013. Back then having a positive additude and speaking decent english in european servers basically got you into multiple stacks and made you loads of nice contacts. sadly since then the community seems to have gone to shit and most of these people, me included, don't bother with that game anymore.

Reminds me of the plot to I Love You, Man.

None im too stupid for a conversation

See, you're projecting or whatever. You don't know what those people were like, you can only guess.
My friend (), they were never about hatred, or edgelordiness like you might think Yea Forums used to be 100% of the time. We met through pokemon/drawfaggotry and just having fun on Yea Forums. It was never about politics or hating or anything like that.
They transitioned, and I didn't drop them for that. But I guess the new friends they made poisoned their mind, changed them more than any HRT ever could have.

>Having friendships sounds like a job.

as an adult? yeah pretty much. You're not jammed into a room with people against their will anymore now you're not in school so it boils down to a lot of work to make things happen.

It won't just happen by itself.

I met a dude almost 2 years ago, still the closest friend I have. Sucks because he's going through shit, and I feel like I can't help him. He feels like he's transsexual but he won't go see anyone about it - not even a therapist. He says it's constant. Doesn't help I'm a fucking paranoid moron. But he's the closest friend I've had, and I'd love to help him.

My neighbours older brother had a group of friends from ytmnd. He introduced me to their vent server and I started going on myself. Havent spoke to my friend or his older brother in years, but this friend group is the only one thats lasted this long for me.
Met them in 2006 and almost all of them are still around on discord.

I was going to mention that, actually. That shit hit too close to home for me.

Having friends when you're younger always seemed like a seamless process that just sort of... happens. As a friendless adult, it seems like some weird manual process where you have to actively look for friends as a goal to achieve.

Also, the idea of making a friend who then realizes you have no other friends would be so embarrassing and just makes me want to be alone even more.

Absolute opposite way around for me, wanna share tips?

Had no friends and decided to buy a VR kit to get lost in VRChat, get drunk and let men pretending to be anime bitches pet me while I was drunk and crying.

Ended up meeting some really cool people, spent 2 years playing together, watching shit together, just hanging out. We would support each other when we were down, and just pretty cool friendos. Occasionally we meet up, we hit up Germany once a year, here's a pic from last year.
We still talk, play, and continue meeting up.
Online friends are cool people.

Talked to a korean girl online for years until she came to my country and we hung out and fucked for like a month. Over the years she ghosted me multiple times and it was probably for other guys. She was so hot that I felt like she was way out of my league which is probably why I let her treat me like that. Had really strong feelings for her even though most of our interactions were online. Last time she emailed me (2017) she apologized and I just went to the uni bathroom stalls and started crying like a beta bitch, fucking pathetic. Felt so bad being dumped by her in the end. Now if she emailed me I wouldn't give a shit/respond which is an amazing feeling.

Not really. The only time it ever felt like work was when I was talking and seeing 3 women at once.

Seeking out women and charming them was fun.

Again, I am an anomaly. This chad-tier behavior on my part doesn't make up for the fact that I am secretly a social retard hermit that didn't talk to anyone IRL until the age of 20, and yet somehow was able to develop a confident personality that women like, but it serves me no other purpose in life. I still get nervous when ordering food over the phone or when I'm passing someone on a walk.

I make no sense as a human being.

I'm 32 and played video games most of my life. Never managed to get a friend online though. I'm hopeless.

DO NOT USE MY WAIFU FOR YOUR POSTING!
ONLY I CAN USE HER!

that character is fucking trash and you need to stop watching anime

I hope you at least give him a good blowjob when he comes back or you're a useless friend.

Hope it helps you in some way. I've been working on being more socialable for the past three years and I've learned that much so far. Making friends IRL is harder, unfortunately. I've only got one good friend but what I've come to accept is that I don't need as much socialization as most people and I don't get along with most people anyway. I've stopped viewing that as a good or bad thing; it's the way I am, and I'm happier that way.

I wish I could tell you something to help you get started, but starting from ground zero is rough. You really have to put yourself out there, there's no shortcut to it, and you have to find somewhere to meet people who want to spend time talking to people they don't know. It's daunting but you can't give up once you get started.

Go be a regular at some hipster lounge cafe or club. That way you can socialize with the other regulars and only go there when you feel like it.

Had the only true potential of a better half completely ripped away from me due to life fucking me over.
Life goes on though.

Met them from RO because we were in the same city and on the same college student generation. Now most of them moved to other cities, got married and have children. Still keep in touch with them on social media anyway.

explain, im interested.

I can easily ditch online friends and feel absolutely nothing.

At first I wondered if it was because I had sociopathic tendencies, but I tear up the moment I see a really sad movie scene or any video about animals being rescued, so I don't think I'm a sociopath.

Could it be because online friendships don't feel truly "real"?

I think that's a matter of opinion
I don't think you're a sociopath per se but I think you don't let yourself think online friendships can feel real, which lets you do this easier
or maybe you just haven't found the right ebro yet

I was good friends with some guys from my Star Wars Battlefront 2 cla , but we lost touch a long time ago

Those seem like 2 different things.
Firstly, just because you care for animals doesn't mean you're not a sociopath. Sometimes sociopaths love animals more than people, actually.
Secondly, you don't feel guilty about online friends because you don't really see them as friends, and who could blame you? They're online, it's not like you've been through some hardships together like school or have deep connections and common interests.

I made a really good friend in a sentry nest at ctf_2fort once.
We helped each other through some tou times, I visited him once and even though we are beginning to grow appart and things will never be as they used to (hanging out in Skype all night playing games and watching movies) we occasionally still text.

How do you meet people on Yea Forums? Does anyone really post there contact info outside of /soc/ ?

I did, but I can't relate to any of them anymore so we don't talk much. This will probably sound ridiculous considering where I am, but I don't really enjoy making fun of other people unless we're bantering between each other, and it seems like that's all they do. It's not even that some huge moralfag or anything, it's just that I don't care what some fucks I don't even know think or did about something and how stupid they are or aren't. Let's talk about that game we both played or something.

i was in a thps 3 clan, called mbx-skate. the guy who ran it was from australia and had a motorbike. we'd usually play everynight and practice. i was the only one with a high speed internet connection so id host the server. had dsl.
mostly anyone ive met local are too stupd to talk or do anythign online, so i mostly talk to foreigners, aussies and some fucking germans or some shit. idk why.

My best friends are people I've met online. A guy I went to school with would play LoL with me and he was the type of guy to invite the rest of the team to our Skype call. I hated him for it because 9/10 people were either painfully awkward or tryhards that would shotcall and rage. A couple of them were actually cool though and turned out we lived in the same city. They're really my only friends at this point and we meet irl a few times a year. Funny thing is I don't talk to my school friend at all now, he even deleted me on steam for whatever reason.

>never played online games
>only use anonymous websites
How do you even make friends like this?
Should I just bite the bullet and make a discord account?

No. Discord is pure cancer.

I've met a lot of people playing video games. though I've never met them in real life. the longest friendship i had was with someone i met on the first MGO. I had to stop talking him because he started to get strange. Last time i spoke to him was last year.

I met 2 other people online (2009) who i consider my best friends to this day. Unfortunately since we're adults life gets in the way and we can't play as much. But when we do we're having laughing fits with what ever game we play.

There's a lot of nice people who play video games it really depends on that titles community if you'll find someone nice there. I wish more people on the outside knew this.

How do you deal with the inevitability that no friendship will last? I will lose any friends I make. It's just a matter of time. I met this one guy recently and i treasured every moment, but he wont talk to me anymore. Friends get girlfriends or whatever else and just leave me behind. Just doesnt seen worth it to me anymore. But as a human we need attention so I have to make posts like this especially since I have no friends and am very lonely.

I'm married to a woman who I first "met" in an AOL chatroom, some times between 1999 and 2002.

I don't even have online friends anymore, just acquaintances.

I've only eve had one online friend and I was too autistic to keep him. Last time we spoke I think we played a bit of vrchat, back when it was still relevant.

i started a new job a couple weeks ago, and i tried my best to talk and make new friends. there is one person i really got along with, but after the first two weeks i can feel a disconnection with him, like he doesn't care anymore and he likes everyone else more. i feel this way with a lot of people there now, and now i'm back to being silent except for the people that are "easy" to talk to for someone like me. it sucks. if you haven't really found a good friend yet, it wont happen anymore. friendships take a long time to build, and it takes constant bidding with each other to develop them.

Accept that nothing lasts forever, you could be friends with someone for your entire life and you'd both still eventually die anyway. Actually that's a fucked up thing to say but my point is don't worry about the end as it happens to everyone.

How do you meet people on an anonymous image board? I seriously think it's my only chance of befriending people who aren't going to be weirded out by my cute anime girl hobby.

Lo decia más por gente que entra aca regularmente en vez de saber vagamenre que es.

I see this place like a bar, And you fags are the regulars

I've heard someone cite that it takes about two hundred hours of "together-time" to form a friendship and often another two hundred hours to become close friends. Anecdotally l concur with this observation. Just by talking to someone at work isn't going to be enough contact for most to regard one as anything more than a work acquintance, as brutal as that may sound. Even though I feel socially lazy and inept, most people seem to be even more so. It's very difficult to balance on between trying to squeeze enough interesting talk / leisure time activities to be accepted to else's mental in-group without coming off as clingy or needy. Nevertheless most friendships I've had seem to have taken quite a bit of asymmetrical effort on my side to get them working. At no point can you be "entitled" to have equal amount of effort back though, because that just drives people off. We live in a weird society where most of us are alone or could do with more friends, but can't seem to find the energy to work for it. Even when someone else takes the initiative and is the one who arranges socializing, we can't seem to come out of our shells to make friends. We're all stressed and tired and it takes a real effort to get us to invest into yet another friendship, no matter how badly we'd need it.
t. other user who now has stable friends but had to spend a ton of effort

Honestly, I always try to be friends with people on here. We all shitpost and stuff but it's better for us to be nice to each other when we can. I think about how being nice in a conversation might make one user smile, and it makes me very happy.

got to know each other and actually met up soon after that. Even though i wasn't the one driving, she was sketched out so she had her friend come with. We just drove around and ate at burger king and talked for a little while, then they took me home. Was a pretty standard experience, but pretty odd to think that I actually met and met up with someone I found on Yea Forums's Yea Forums. And it was actually a cute gril. Mary if you're out there, it was fun talking about Pulp Fiction and whatever else we talked about.

Yes because after long enough you meet them in person.

well yeah why wouldn't they? you can see and hear them and you actually have time to hang out too

Obseethesed.

I know my friend for 7 years and I don't even know how he looks like. I don't think he even wants to meet irl

Met a bunch of dudes through games. Had a big meet up of our online friend group when I was 19. Pretty fun but it's not the same as online. Everyone felt slightly different in person.
Also met a girl on vrchat who ended up becoming my gf for a year. Ended up being an exchange student near her college for half a year. One great experience I wouldn't trade for anything.

I don't talk to most of those guys anymore and not with the girl. Wasnt even the distance that prevented it from happening. People just change over time I guess.

>meet a group of cool dudes in dumb mmo 4channel guild
>a bunch of them turned out to be giant faggots
>a bunch more turned out to be schizo betas
>going on a month long trip to japan with the cool dudes that were left
Now all I need is a cute bf and everything will be golden.

exact same experience here, except I think me and him are buddies going on 6 years now. We don't talk much anymore but whenever we do it's right back to normal. But yeah, he's seen my face and heard my voice but has never shown me a picture and has allegedly never had a mic. He's extremely cheap so I believe him on that somewhat.

same, i never understood how people make friends online, especially on Yea Forums(unless you're a filthy /soc/ normalfag)

ITT turns out Yea Forums is full of tranny and faggots, good thing that I only lurk and most of the time look at this board with disgust

hard days for pedos

yea that's why idk if i can consider it real. idk it makes me feel lonely though.

i'm really good at it, but my problem is that i completely neglect every social relationship I have now. I never have any willingness to just randomly start conversations with friends (something I've done regularly throughout my life both IRL and online) because i just don't want to get sucked into a conversation and not be able to drop it on a whim to go do whatever dopamine release catches my attention at the moment.

Anyway, the big things are one, talking regularly but not constantly, people will remember your username but you won't annoy them. Two is be funny if you know how. Three is to actively add people and then ask them if they want to play.

Its incredibly easy to make friends using Yea Forums, but you have to be willing to exit your comfort zone.

>Join a /vg/ MMO guild or community
>Go to a /cgl/ cosplay meet at a local convention
>Join a state or specific gear discord from /k/

>"friends"
no.
>friends
yes.
Shallow people already have a very broad view of who their "friends" are, and online this just gets even worse. See: all the normalfags that had hundreds of people on their facebook friends list.

I have some internet folks I know for like 12 years. They're basically from anonymous boards not memelords. and anime oldfags. But I don't consider them as friends since internet friends are not real friends. Just funny people with you can talk about your hobbies sometimes. And they're not /soc/ or typical Yea Forums discord types who talk non stop in chat rooms

My friends became normalfags.

They all changed after marriage.

It's surreal seeing your neglected facebook account being bombarded with the cheesiest, corniest wedding videos.

It's like everybody wants their wedding video to feel like a commercial or music video these days.

What happened to the old fashioned wedding ceremony/wedding event video where no music is added, just the sounds of that particular day and just interviewing or just looking left and right at the wedding guests and recording the whole event in silence?

But yeah, it feels like every old friend is moving away after being married and even before marriage, the friend and his fiancee develop an entirely new social circle.

I feel like I am the one being left behind by everybody, stuck in this town and the only person who remembers the good times.

Is it really so easy to move away from your hometown and your old friends?

Seriously, inventing airplanes, cars, trains were a mistake.

Maybe I should just move to another country someday.

I had friends online. Many, many years ago. I haven't made friends in years now that i think about it.

I met most of my online friends on Starcraft BW 12 years ago. Now we meet irl once or twice every year. I'm actually closer than them than my "normal" friends.

It's calling becoming an adult and you failed at it.
Priorities shift.

Suicide is great

Once normalfags become an adult they lose what little default soul they had left. With their childhood innocence and wonder now completely gone they turn into the most generic husks that do what everyone else does and what TV tells them to do.
It sounds edgy as fuck but it's true, I bet the most unique aspect left in them is a basic hobby like cars and dog tricks.

I had a lot of online friends throughout the years but recently It's gotten a lot harder to meet cool people. Nowadays you have to get lucky and happen to see someone really cool on some groups wall or in an online game (which became harder too because online games don't really have lobbies anymore, just random matchmaking), Discord is terrible for making friends because any group you join will already have members well known and dominating the conversation, It's difficult to get in and meet people as an outsider I feel like. In the past, there were forums and every post had the same weight since it was a lot slower and tended to be on-topic, video games also had servers you could regularly visit and get to know people in them, also had lobbies available so you talked a bit before going in game and played with the same people for more than a match. You would meet cool, friendly and talkative people without trying to find them.
I met some cool people from here too, by posting my Steam profile on Steam friend threads. Most of them are bait though, and some people are not the kind of people you'd want to befriend so be careful about giving information, being overly friendly and be ready to remove if you don't click since you have no idea about the person before adding them.

i had a group i thought i would have forever, long story short, make friends in real life instead. online ones are a huge waste of time.

I was the only one who cried at highschool graduation.

Maybe because I felt too great in the past that I became so cold now.

This is one of the worst coping I've ever seen.
I'm married and of course my neet virgin friends get angry at me for not being able to play 12 hours a day anymore but they're the ones who cry themselves to sleep and play games as scapism instead of for fun like I do.

Your anecdotal evidence is different from mine bud, sorry but that means you're retarded

>crying at graduation
>not being glad its over and you can finally get the hell out of that place
???

Shut the fuck up, SJW.

>Maybe I should just move to another country someday.

you clearly are close to 30 and have no car

stop rooting at other's happiness - why were you not invited to the weddings?

pedo rights are human rights

Stockholm syndrome, they don't wanna lose their bullies

Had a nice online friend throughout my teenage years with whom I could talk for hours and hours on msn messenger. We'd regularly do all-nighters just chatting and he was a neet due to a medical condition. We met on a now defunct Playstation forum by doing a group chat one day. We gradually faded apart as he liked normalfag vidya like TF2 and I got into weebshit instead, so it became routine for him to sign in and play that for 12 hours straight while I couldn't talk to him. We've long cut ties with each other but the last time I checked on his profile, he was obsessed with Borderlands memes.

At least he's on the right page regarding commies.

I'm so fucking ugly. I'm short and ugly.

I hate myself so much. I hate being me.

Nobody has ever loved me. Nobody will ever love me.

I know my life will end in suicide.

Stop delaying it pussy, your post is as ugly as you.

How do you expect anyone to love you when you don't even love youself?

Damn I'm was pretty clingy person and cared more about having fun with friends than my own future. This was biggest mistake since friendship is not eternal because people changes. Our "friendship circle" start breaking around uni age and was broken in the end of uni+/- 1 year. Even my best friend changed too much. This was exactly moement when I udenrstand that I don't belongs there anymore. Pretty sad. It's like in fucking punpun.

Honestly, I feel like VRChat really is something special. I've been lucky enough to get a close friend group from there that I talk to everyday, have met with all of them at conventions three times now, and some of those guys are really close to my heart.
blogposting, but i was just some lonely 16 y/o (18 now) who bought a vr headset and ended up getting into the game by chance. but hey, the social gains i made there from two egirls and a bunch of cool dudes transferred to my irl social skills and i learned how to not be an autist and actually talk to people. comfy thread

>Nobody will ever love me
So fucking what? Get a job, do what you love in your free time and fuck everything else.

Why do all of you say that being short is the end of the world?
I'm 6'5 and nothing good has ever happen to me.

The only good friends I currently have are all people I met online. Some of them through an MMO, the rest of them on Yea Forums discussing said MMO. Been friends with them for about 10 years. We still play games together but not as much as we used to, we're all busy with work and our schedules don't line up very well. Discord has made it very easy for us to stick together in the last few years though, we chat all day pretty much every day.

You could do something to better yourself instead of wasting energy wallowing in self-pity.
Become a jacked manlet, or something. And try not to take yourself/height so seriously.

Jesus, has VRChat been around that long?

>So fucking what? Get a job
nice conformist boomer advice. Working minimum wage retail would make anyone want to kill themselves even more

Short guys just get the short end of the stick. They can't stand up to the rest of us. Nobody respecting them isn't even the height of the problem. People need low standards to think good of them. It's a small thing that people naturally dislike. Midgets are doomed to a life filled with manly tears

Do ERP friends count? I met one, separated years ago and I still think about her every night
But I'm just an autist

I made a bunch of online friends when I was 16 because I stopped talking to people irl, progressively they also became really normal and stopped watching anime/playing vidya so I just lost interest in talking to them. I still talk to them but it isn't the same and they really feel alien to me at this point. Now I'm basically alone again.

Hang in there, one day it starts to hurt a bit less.

So fucking what? I killed my back in retail a year ago for 11 months and 600 monthly bucks, that's my country for you, i still won't let any faggot feelings or pain ruin my vidya interests.

Yeah, time flies. I got in on the first January 2018 boom, which was the knuckles phase that made it popular in the first place.

yeah one main dude i've known about 10 years now and another I picked up about 3 years ago. handful of others I don't talk to as much but still good friends.

I met my best friend on an anime forum when we were 13. I turned out to be a black guy, and her a tiny korean girl.
We visit each other 3-4 times a year ever since we became adults. Our lives are very different, but we've always been perfect friends. I'm kind of worried because we haven't had an argument about ANYTHING in about 15 years (We're 28 now), other than when I purposely recognize her writing style on Yea Forums, and then shitpost on the threads.
She's like the imotou I always wanted, so I try to spoil the shit out of her.

I have fucked her, right?

I wish I could tell you some advice or tell you that it's not like that. Sorry. Not that I'm looking down on you, I haven't had a friend since I was 13 let alone a romantic relationship

>We're 28 now

I left town the day of my graduation and ghosted my old mates for the good part of a decade. Rude but I was glad to be rid of that shit. But part of me wants to go back and apologize to all of the teachers that I was a cunt to. I want to do at least that much before I eventually kill myself.

Super real. She visited this weekend and we went to Round 1 to play arcade games, ate dimsum, and then lazed around and watched anime like we were 16 again.
I don't think theres a single person in this world who knows me as well as she does, and every day I thank the internet! She'll be back again next month because now we're adults, and a 4 hour bus ride doesn't seem as crazy when you're an oldfag. We're both office workers now, so we can't travel as much, but we still chat almost every other day.

bitch, I'm 30, living in my own apartment with my gf, restructuring a house, working remotely for a CA software house as a lead developer and play competitive games since I can remember

Start building some self criticism and think about things you can improve in your life instead of spitting acid on people that made it

I have many "normalfags" friends, almost all of them and feel the lonelyness from time to time but I know I can improve that, plus the more you grow up the more people gets apart and think about their wife/children/etc, so get wasted with them when possible (I assume you don't drink and smoke weed judging by the edginess)

I promise you that no one other than her cared when I shitposed in the Tiger and Bunny threads in 2012.

I mean, we both like anime, so it's not too strange. Closest friend in NYC is also a small korean girl, and so is the last girl I hooked up with. NYC is full of korean girls, and i've lived with one for the last 4 years.
All coincidental, there just isn't anything super special about it other than the contrast since i'm dark as fuck.

Matters how you shitpost honestly. Arguing from opposite side is pretty okay.

I promise that my 2012 shitposting was as eloquent as 2012 posting was in general. The Geass years were a fucking mess, and I shouldn't be held to modern standard posting practices.

Love you user. Hope you treasure the ones who are special to you!

I asked this fat nigger at work today if he liked video games. He said no, and that he hasn't played any since the original Xbox. Surprised the fuck out of me because he looked like he was into all that faggy shit like Overwatch or something. Fucking weird, and my interest in him plummeted. In my head I feel like everyone plays video games, but nobody actually does. Where the fuck are all these people who like games that aren't League of Faggots, World of Faggots, Overfaggot, and Fucknite?

Thank god my mom couldnt find the numbers this year.

real TV right there

I had tons of online friends when I was a kid. I owned a guild on Neopets with 30+ active members. Somewhere along the way I lost the ability to make friends even on the internet.

I don't know how old he is (guessing 30s) and I honestly don't want to say where I work just in case. I know this other retard who wore an Overwatch shirt today, but I don't say anything to him. I overheard him and someone else I kinda talk to talking about games. So I mentioned to him "oh you play on PC", and he said yes, and I told him I just like consoles especially since I can have discs. He understood but I was telling him I still want to build my own desktop for the very few exclusives I'm interested in + emulators. Then he tells me what he plays.. League of Legends. I laughed out loud and he said "hey man its popular dont make fun of it". Then he said, "I've also been really into WoW classic", and I'm just like, god dammit. So on the topic of MMOs I brought up FFXIV, which I love. And he says "oh don't talk about that". And so I asked, what, you have something against FF? And he said no, but he played the trial and thought it was bad. I said dammit again. The beginning is pretty bad though. It's so hard to find people who are not into this popular trash.

That does kinda look like foxworth.
