Same here. I have met a couple of my online friends in person.

Ha! Neither.

Let me clarify that: neither of either. As in none.

online(although i doubt that within 2 ta 3 years or so, that i will have a single friend from there on 4 the rest of my life...it really
sucks, and i'll never have a woman, for two reasons..NT women of course most likely would not give an aspie guy a chance IN HELL to meet/date her...and two, i drive myself crazy, and hate my condition, and i sure wouldn't want to be around me if i were someone else, i'd just want an aspie girl, for her body/kissing/sleep/cuddling/understanding....so basically just for sexual purposes! LIFE OF AN ASPIE- NOT FUN.

used to be online, then it switched, though I think it may switch back and forth over a long enough span of time.

More online friends, though oddly enough I don't normally seem to have so much of a problem making friends in real life.

I think I just prefer it that way though, I feel there's less pressure on me if it's just virtual and easier to communicate.

Definitely, but that's hardly surprising.

Definatly more online. I have a few rl friends, but more online. Funniest thing, though, is that most of my online friends I've met through rpgs.

more rl , we live in a geographically interesting village, people come have weekends at my place and if i cook they keep coming back, even if for the rest i keep painting all day and even if we got a rather primitive -but very large- house)
i like a few people online, but i don't know whether such communication could turn into real friendship? time will tell
wp is the first place i like being online, and i only know it since a few months,
before i had a blog but that was pretty lonely, my real friends kept replying by email, even if it was about a blog-topic and i had shut all other links to popular anouncements of blogs to no communication.

I don't know. My two closest (not in distance) RL friends both live far away (they've moved), so I talk to them over the internet (email, mainly). Does that count?
