Well it's hardly my fault that everything I say sounds like I'm writing a medical report.

...actually, I think it kind of is...

...

Anyway:

Whether or not it sounds like it, you're still pretty high on the hierarchy of my social life. I'd appreciate if you didn't question that.

And if you still do... well, I guess I'll go and write a poem or something...

Yes I do, even though I rarely speak with someone through messages, the peeps that are hanging around IRC are all fun people to be around, I like all the people I'm making friends with around here.
I've also met someone who I trully cherish my friendship with that person. An amazing person I must say.

Well, sure, I've known some of them for 4 years now and in an age where many people do their RL communication solely via stuff like facebook, skype and sms I don't see how it matters if I actually ever met them, as long as I regularly spend time talking with them etc...
I probably regret this post by now.

Not true. I did respond to that gif you send me.

You should have thought about the coldness before you started to interact with a kuudere.

I should have broken through the protective shell more than I have by now. You are an ice queen baka
Ive only managed to chip away a little in so long ;_; You need to open up more, be vulnerable I thought I was going to help you move away from that cold medical sounding stuff...maybe im not good enough.

You're not a robot Kousoku! you need to feel something, get angry get sad show me you feel! I need the people I know to feel emotions beyond me. Making others express their feelings is all im good for!

Interesting thread, OP.

The only bonds I really make here are through users of another community I'm a part of, whether they be past members of it or not. The ones I know I feel comfortable around, namely four of my current contacts, I completely value them with every bit of my all, and these are friends I know I cannot replace.

Lone exception is my best friend IRL as she has an account here. That bond is the most irreplaceable of them all.

Yes. I've made some really good friends on this site, people that I can talk to about anything.

But I can't develop feelings for someone unless i know them in real life.

Very true.

In some ways, people are more open and honest on MAL, and in some ways they are more guarded. Just like face to face, but a bit different.

I've met some interesting people here. I'm glad I met them.

I can't say I know them extremely well, but honestly I can't say I know anyone IRL extremely well either.

Not really. Bonds online tend to be ephemeral. Even in the real life most friendships don't lead to a strong bond. From my experience getting overly attached to any individual has consequences. Sooner or later the relationship becomes stale and for a lack of a better word, boring. I do value the input from individuals whether it be online or real life, and I enjoy spending some measure of time with them. I don't feel the need to invest on a strong emotional level though. In other words, if for one reason or another the individual were to inexplicably disappear, I may lament for a short time frame, but like many people I would move on.

Sure I do. I've met really amazing people here. And even I got to meet one of them in a mall. But the group of people I talk here, and I really appreciate, I can count them on the fingers of one hand.

I know the feels.


Apologies, I didn't want' MAL to be left in the dust but it looks like that's the way it's becoming~

You have kosaku though! not that anyone would be able to replace lime <3

I value and appreciate all the friendships I have made through MAL.
There are users who I know I can rely on, and they can rely on me if the time calls for it.
Some people on MAL are easier to talk to than IRL, simply due to us meeting due to similar hobbies and personalities.

Bonds on the Internet are a lot harder because people can simply disappear from a site and no one will ever know what happened to them, it's a lot harder to disappear like that IRL.

That said I value some people on here, and there are some that I value a lot. One of them has basically left MAL, but we usually speak twice a week.

For some reason I care a lot in the sense that I wasn't them to do well and I want the best to happen to them, despite how superficially I honestly know them.

Then there are a couple of people that I want to hug because they are super kawaii.

Mm, it kinda depends really.

I'm most likely never going to meet any of my friends I've made on MAL irl (except maybe one or two), so I'm not sure how long I can cherish these bonds. I'll make the most ouf of this as I can, I guess. Never know when I'm leaving or someone else is.

I'll value them the same but they are still internet relationships. There's only so much you can do with them.
