I connect with people on Hellobee on an almost daily basis, whether it's on the boards or Instagram. My in real life friends don't communicate with me nearly that often. They're so busy and assume that I don't have time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114381 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 16:01:42 +0000 Cherrybee 1114381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha! Interesting thought!! I know my BFF best so Im going to vote no! But its a close call with my other IRL friends!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114262 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 15:19:03 +0000 MrsBrewer 1114262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: I would have known nothing about it, but being here on HB I think I am so well versed on all of this now! LOL Although I'm sure when the time comes for DH and I, I will be asking all the newbie questions :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114258 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 15:17:39 +0000 rachiecakes 1114258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: yes! we didn't tell anyone when we were TTC either and I knew nothing about the TWW or ECM, lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114195 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:57:47 +0000 MrsBrewer 1114195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In some aspects yes! No one IRL knows how much I wish we were TTC. We keep telling everyone "we are waiting for a couple more years" just to try and keep questions about TTC at bay. But I desperately can't wait until DH and I actually TTC. I'm sure most of my friends IRL all think that DH and I won't even have kids with how long we've told them we're going to wait! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114187 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:55:51 +0000 banana 1114187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: YES! I know several moms like that. They look super polished and put together and never complain about anything. Their kids are always dressed in these cute outfits and hair styles. I walk around with jeans and flip flops and my kids always have some sort of stain on their shirts. I'm always in awe on how they manage to be so "perfect"! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114173 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:53:02 +0000 rachiecakes 1114173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha sometimes! especially casual friends IRL - I have some friends/acquaintances that are moms and are always sooo put together, so cool, and you know that there must be SOMETHING about being a new mom that they struggled with but they'd never spill to me. I feel like I "know" a lot more about how normal it is to be overwhelmed, stressed, unsure, etc. about a lot of things when you're pregnant/have babies. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114162 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:50:17 +0000 banana 1114162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I know what you mean! I feel like there are like only 30 people reading these boards (our HB friends!) when in fact there could be hundreds of lurkers. Yikes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114160 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:49:57 +0000 pui 1114160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. No one but my husband and my parents know I am TTC IRL, nevermind all the challenges I've faced with that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114154 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:48:55 +0000 Shutterbug 1114154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, and my HB friends definitely know aspects of me better than my IRL friends, since none of my IRL friends (except one) know about my IF. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114148 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:47:30 +0000 HLK208 1114148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!!! Actually, I connect with my IRL HB friends more than I do with my regular friends! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114140 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:46:09 +0000 mrs. bird 1114140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lol, yup! I &lt;3 HB 'cause it feels so cozy &amp; I feel like I 'know' many bees. Sometimes I forget that the whole world could be reading all of our convos </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114093 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:28:11 +0000 Bao 1114093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha yes, I feel the same way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-like-your-know-your-hb-friends-better-than-your-irl-friends#post-1114087 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:27:20 +0000 banana 1114087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like I know some of you better than my IRL friends! I guess it's because we're on HB every day (or most days) and share a lot of details about our lives and our likes/dislikes. For example, I have NO idea if my IRL friends like dark or light roast coffee. Or whether their SO's are bed hogs! haha.</p> <p>Do you feel the same way? </p>
