The Art of Making New Friends: Navigating Real-Life vs Virtual Connections

i don't have friends in real life at the moment, I only know people and i once used to have friends back then when I was a kid. Now at this age I'm in early twenties and I only know people but they're not my friends.. it's not that hard to make some new friends but the way it end is something I don't want to experience.
Well, my point of view about friendship is a bit different.. let me share how I find it hard to make new friends in life but it is more easy on internet ahead in this post.
Making Friend in real life is way too easy
I remember my first day at school and one thing I was worried about was "meeting whole new people".. like how I'd make my place among them.. when it was my first day at school I did introduced myself to teacher and than just sat there in class until the one sitting next to me talked to me.
It took one conversation and than started talking with each other more often and sharing the same bench always became a real thing.

We became friends, it all takes to become a friend with someone is one conversation.. it could be a friendship for years and lifetime.. in my case I studied in that school till 4th grade and than moved to a different one and lost that friend.
After that I thought I have friends in the neighborhood where I was living and then when we moved out to another place and city.. lost those friends too.
I lost friends one after another
In my entire life being Tennant's is like moving from one to another place, other life traumas since I was kid did really dirty to me... I lost friends one after another that too without my fault.
People have best friends since childhood days.. I kind of thought x person is my best friend like I do trust people way too quick but somehow that other person just want some benefits.
Friends on internet are more better
In my case I've meet many people like strangers on internet later we became frens and friends I've made on internet have been with me since years, supporting each other.. exchanging ideas and trusting is like blessing.
I can trust friends on internet with my life savings honestly.. a lot of time when I was going through lowest point and having a really bad day my frens got my back.
I've made a lot of frens on hive since I joined.. it's more like homies now, not holding anything against each other.. being true selves and doing our own things is like one of the best kind of relation.
Wrapping Up...
In the end making friends in real life is easy but friends on internet turned out more better than irl in my case. The frens I made on hive have seen my journey from day one to now.. they know more about me than anyone else and I do too.. it's kind a friendship I'd always be grateful about.
I'd like to know if you're good at making new friends and how that goes... Do share your thoughts about it in the comments.

for you O.O. Glad to see you had an easy time and didn't get bullied or anything
yup that's why i prefer having a few. it's dangerous to trust so many people.
i feel the same way here . i think i have similar experience even tho most of these people online i never met in real life
For me making friends in real life is a bit difficult because i tend to be on my own more often, apart from school where you get to meet different people in your class but to me I feel friendship should be something we hold dear to ourselves so I take my time to pick my friends regardless of the location I find myself.
Very interesting article you have shared here dear friend. As we grow in life, our priorities and ambitions tend to change, and we usually get different view of life. Friendships usually goes through that changing phase too. Thanks for sharing boss.
Communication and conversation is the method of building any relationship.
I used to think that real relationships are unlikely to build in online world. Nevertheless, my experience proved me wrong. I have met some of the most genuine people of my life online.
I think the the people in real and virtual world are alike. It just depends on our encounter how we navigate in the world.
