I have WP 1 friend I text and another former WP user I phone but no one else. Do any of you have a ton of friends you talk to on WP?

I'm surprised no one has responded to this question.

I only have 1 friend here (Road Ratt) but I hope to get to know others here, I'm very easy going to know and get along with. Good luck to you and remember its not easy to make friends in this society.

Yes, quite a few. I had an account here years ago and I still speak to a few from then, who sadly are no longer members here. Some members that are still here are my friends too.

What?
You mean people who talk back?
I'm not as invisible here as in real life, so I do have some interactions, but only within WP.
My next trip OS may see me attempting to meet with a few if they're interested (BB & Peet...you're both on top of my WP list)
But this is coming from a guy who has yet to meet his best friend of 20 years. (She's #1 on the meet list when I hit Europe)

Ton is surely not the unit of choice for me.

Not been here long enough... but saying that, never made any friends on forums, do some people have like extended DM chats or something? I dunno!? Reminds me of a previous workplace. I'd been there a few years and suddenly realised most people in the office were chatting via whatsapp. Except me. Seemed a bit weird. But no I'm the weird one :lol: :lol: :lol:

No, but some wrong planeteers sometimes write that they appreciate my input publically . Generally if I make a friend here they either get banned or get so disgusted they will not post anymore. And still to this day ,I have no exact idea of why these things are happening . . ? Such is the life of a Aspie?
