My best friend is an online friend. I can tell her just about anything. Some stuff I do save for my therapist. And other stuff my husband is terrific at.
Maybe you can spread out things a bit? Find three or four special people?
Who is the most promising person around you to be a good friend? Can you make some effort to engage with that person more frequently?
Have you been to Babble Open? The freedom and real time interaction there have led to some close friendships for me.
Or if there is someone on board that you think you'd like to get to know better, you can send out a trial Babblemail and see if it leads to anything.
I've found engagement to be the hardest thing in the world. I really have to work at it. I envy those who have a natural talent for it.
