How many Litsters do you consider your friends?

[GimpyIntellect]

I'm not talking about people you make smalltalk with on the boards.

I'm talking about daily interactions, discussing your most inner feelings, either via chat or over the phone or in person.

I would say my number is zero. I'm an antisocial turd.

 

[Not Normal]

Two current and one past.

 

[Noor]

A few, including two past ones and one who has passed.

 

[butters]

i'd say about 10, but i don't need to be in daily contact for the friendships to exist. and... i miss byron.

 

[JohnnySavage]

I suppose two or three have my phone number. An additional one or two have my real email address. I'm in daily contact with one by text/voice.

Notwithstanding, there are a couple of dozen that I consider friends even though the only contact is via the Lit.

Same here, and Byron too, always!

pretty much this.

always

not all of my friends are from the gb, and there are many others who are friendly to me and vice versa but, as johnny says, limited to lit - and some posters who don't post anymore but are still friends even if it's months between talking with them.

Well chat isn't something I care for. I don't call anybody every day. I don't leave the house every day.

Daily? The only person I interact with every day is my wife, but she happens to be a Litster, so the answer is one.

Okay, I've checked my buddies list. Basically all of them have have dropped out of here. There is one guy I met here who is still a good friend. I forgot I met him here first. We exchange e-mails about 6 days a week, unless I'm traveling. Make that two.

I am BFF's with every user on this site.

We you, too.

 

[GothAngelBabe]

[butters]

sometimes friendship needs breathing space

[cowslinger64]

Two I talk to every day, one I talk to most days.. And a handful I do occasionally.

 

[islandman]

A handful.

 

[JAMESBJOHNSON]

None I know of. LIT is not the place I want to collect friends. That said, I respect a few people, like VETTE and BUSYBODY and ISHMAEL and MILES, and a couple of newbies who seem worth the candle.

 

[Balladeer08]

My theory has always been that a friend will help you move, and a good friend will help you move a body.

As I don't know of anyone here who lives within a hundred miles of me, chances of them becoming either are vanishingly small.

I'm within 100 miles of you, but you're not really my type.

 

[Adre]

None, but I can think of several who would make pretty good friends.

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

loads of acquaintances, several close friends,

two to whom I could say pretty much anything without fear of judgment or abandonment.

Share those two with me, please.

[glynndah]

One by the OP's qualifications; a few more are close acquaintances.

Flying Monkeys don't count as acquaintances

One friend for sure, scratch another. People can have some strange definitions of friendship & acquaintances so I honestly can't answer beyond this.
