Do you have close friends, best friends or just casual friends?
Do you speak to them regularly just to say hi or only when something needs to be shared/discussed?
Have you made real friendships on here? |

I've made more friends than anything else,
I found my fwb who is like a best friend to me too.
I've found lots of people who support me, appreciate me for who I am, and are there for me, and I hope I do the same for them |

I think as I've got older a lot of my friends have revealed their true colours and I have 3 or 4 good friends and that's about it .
I've made far more friends on here the past few years than I have in real life  .
God I sounded serious there for a minute  |

I’m lucky, I have a lot of friends. Some friends I keep in touch with everyday, some only occasionally, who are no less close. I have a couple of friends who know all the details of my past and who saved my life, I have friends I only see when a big group of us get together for a party. I even have close friends I’ve only met up with in other countries.
I truly hope I’ve made some real friendships on here. Fab is an unreal place, and it isn’t always easy to know just how real the friendships here truly are. But a few sure feel real Xx |

It's not always about the number's. I think we all realise as we get older the quality of the friendship is definitely more important |

We've made some amazing friendships through fab. Both with our singles and couples accounts.
Do we keep in contact every day, no probably not. But we do check in regularly and those we care about have our contact details and know we'll always be there when the call and vice versa. |

It is and it can be difficult to determine what's real and what's not. I guess it comes our own judge of character and the rest a leap of faith. |

I think 3-4 is about the right number of very close friends, the ones you hope will be lifelong and you trust for advice on big decisions, one being your partner. Then a wider group of about 12 , that are important but may come and go over time. |

"Do you mean on here in general?
Both, on here and in the outside world. "
Oh sorry I didn't read the OP properly.
Well I met Ash on here and he is my best friend.
There are a few on here i consider real friends.
One of whom drove 63 miles each way to make sure we were OK and had everything we needed.
There are definitely people on here i consider friends.
There are also people i like a lot but don't have much contact with.
I'd like to make more female friends on here. |

I have very few close friends, but plenty of acquaintances - I keep my defences high, especially on here, as unfortunately I've seen the bad side of this place far too often.
I have met people that I would class as friends though and chat to regularly, one in particular who is very dear to me, we chat every day and can spend hours on the phone. |

Friendships are always a leap of faith. How much of yourself do you give? How open and vulnerable do you make yourself? I have made some truly terrible mistakes with people in my distant past - they were exceptionally good at deception. But I kept my faith, and I’m glad I did.
So much of being a good friend is about accepting the differences between you, rather than celebrating the similarities. Forgiveness, a lack of judgement, an awareness of frailties, the desire to support, empathy and compassion. Such things are always worth a leap of faith xx |

This is very true. I think we've all probably made mistakes with our judgements in the past unfortunately it can make us more guarded which can make it harder for genuine ones to get close. My character judgement hasn't always been correct but I try to still have faith because sometimes you meet someone and within a couple of hours you just know
Yes they are and if you can find all that in a human that makes you laugh and smile in the process then you've got a winner xx |

I've became friendly with them because I find them attractive. Don't all relationships start out friendly anyway? I think I would like to screw them all!  |

In real life we have a tight knit group of ladies who support each other with anything, the rest are acquaintances who flit in and out according to our lifestyle journey.
In fab life going to the socials has cemented some amazing friendships with both ladies and men and a special few who have flowed naturally into my protection zone
I have been burned once on here before but I learned from that experience and shan't be making that mistake again |

Tbh now I ensure that I meet them face to face, if I think that a friendship will progress out of just an acquaintance zone it's one worth travelling for |

I have friends in all categories. There are some friends with whom I am regularly in touch through whatsapp and messenger. There is a very small subset of them with whom I feel comfortable talking about my personal and family issues. They are my closest ones.
Of course, no one knows about my fab account |

My close friends are my best friends but I have casual friends from work. We’ll get together for drinks or dinner.
I try and speak to them a few times a week but they know if they don’t hear from me it doesn’t mean that I’m not thinking about them.
I’ve made a few friends off here. Supportive, funny, and brilliant. I think I’m very lucky to have them in my life and I’m hoping we’ll get together very soon. |

Some I've actually speak to and consider good friends,
Others I've actually met socially and are great friends.

I have the best group of friends. I’m so lucky with all the friends I’ve got.
Most of them are all friends from back home, so we we went through Primary, middle and high school together. We’ve all moved away and live in different parts of the country but speak daily through texts and I speak to most of them on the phone every week. Plus we all meet up at birthdays etc and we all go back home for Christmas. New additions have been added to the group over the years which I love.
I have friends on here I chat to as well |

I'm blessed in that I have a few circles of friends from different areas of my life. Some from growing up with,work, football, neighbours and a few of them would know each other aswell! I have a small group of very close mates, male and female,and I know if I needed any of them they'd drop everything in a heartbeat for me. And I'd do exactly the same for them. On occasion some of these groups would get together and the craic is brilliant! If I don't see some of them for a while it's never an issue,we just pick up where we left off last time. And there's always WhatsApp... Like I said at the beginning...I'm blessed!!! |

I have a few friends from my youth, who I see rarely but we keep in touch. I have some local mates that I go for a drink with occasionally, as we are no longer involved in the thing that brought us together regularly when our kids were younger. I have some other friendships from different stages in life that I keep in contact with and see occasionally and I have some close friends I work and play music with and see them regularly. My band mate is probably my closest non-Fab friend, but I have friends on here that I have more contact with who know me better than any of the others. |

I don't have many friends from school, but my best friend once known for about 10 years. We don't see each other very often but when we do, it's like we were never apart.
On here, I'm still a newbie really I think I've started developing friendships that I would love to see grow |
