We both posted regularly on the teenage chicken soup message boards and I flew up to meet her 6 years later... About 6 months after that I moved out of state and we were roommates for about 3 years before I moved back to my home state... We met about 14 years ago and at this point she is my longest standing friend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bff-you-met-online#post-351333 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 23:37:26 +0000 HLK208 351333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No!

I know I am lame but with my social anxiety I can't go out anymore or hang out so I am losing my real life friends. My online friends don't need to hangout to know what we are friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bff-you-met-online#post-350986 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 18:18:51 +0000 Arden 350986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Actually yes! My best friend (who ended up being my Maid of Honor) and I met online. </p> <p>She wrote to me on Myspace (back when I still had myspace, lol) and told me that she read about me in a magazine and she wanted to talk to me cause she thought we had a lot in common. We started IMing, and then emailing, and then phone conversations...</p> <p>Ended up meeting at a conference, met a few more times, and then she moved to Albania to work with my organization and we shared an apartment for a year. :) </p> <p>We're still best friends, years later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bff-you-met-online#post-350973 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 18:10:04 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 350973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awwww, that is awesome you guys! I have met several girls through this site who I could *see* myself becoming close to, but no BFF relationships yet!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bff-you-met-online#post-350962 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 17:58:19 +0000 Honeybee 350962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hahahahahahaha! YES! And I'm going to meet her in December. Wink, wink, friend. We'll be there for a few days both before and after Christmas, and I expect to meet you then! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bff-you-met-online#post-350956 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 17:51:09 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 350956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, and she knows who she is! We tried to meet up a few months ago, but baby schedules didn't work out... We're going to meet up in the next couple of months though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bff-you-met-online#post-350950 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 17:47:13 +0000 Mrs. Pen 350950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep!! My friend, who actually just joined HB cause I asked her to :) </p> <p>We met a long time ago, and it was actually through my ex boyfriend. They had a mutual friend. We started out facebooking and IMing and then calling/texting each other. Now we talk to each other on a daily basis about general life stuff. We have always just happened to be in similar walks of life so it's been pretty cool. She had a baby just a couple months after me.</p> <p>We haven't met yet, but we're trying to plan a trip for me to come visit her in December. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bff-you-met-online#post-350938 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 17:36:52 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 350938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If so, where did you meet them? When?<br /> Have you met in real life? </p>
