Inspired by Dan Murphy...the "other" way

[Rajah]

Yup, I've met a few good friends through the net -- a few here, a few from other places.

 

[Buckalew]

I haven't met many people here but a few. (Two of which failed to stop and pick me up on their way to WDW )

I have many friends here and hope to make more friends here. I feel a bond with Heather and Lynne for sure. A friendship with many others.

I feel like if I'm blessed enough that the friendship with Dan (& hopefully Marie) is lifelong. I respect him and know that he cares for me and my family and he has shown me that he is someone I want to be lifelong buddies with.

There are many people here that I'd love to meet in RL. I hope to do just that someday.

<font color=navy>Absolutely, without a doubt. I have never met anyone in person from the DIS, but that doesn't matter... friendship goes beyond all barriers. I do hope to meet them in person some day, but even without having met them I know that they are true and wonderful friends and I am so very thankful that they are in my life. Makes me smile just thinking about it. ~*Hugs*~ </font>

I haven't met anyone from the net. There are those that I am close to on the net that I wouldn't want our friendship to end, just as there are those that I am close to IRL that I wouldn't want our friendship to end.

There are definately some bad seeds out there on the net as IRL, but those bad seeds don't matter much in the grand scheme of friendships.

I've met wonderful people from the net...some of whom were/are considered the pond scum because they enjoyed naughty/adult humor. (just the right kind of humor if ya ask me! LOL)

Those that I HAVE met have turned out to be the most wonderful people I've ever had the pleasure of calling my friends.
I would guess that our RL friendships will be life-long friendships....

I've yet to meet Tony, although we had a date last January but we never did hook up. Maybe this year, huh?



Dang...what was the original question? Seem to have flaked out here.

 

[ByTheSea]

Absolutely!

I am fortunate in that I travel a lot for my job and have had several opportunities to meet friends I would never have known if not for the DIS.

Although I don't DIS all that much, I do have a nice group of friends that I stay in pretty close touch with, several who's friendship and support I cherish and value.

 

[Jenzebelle]

I have several wonderful friends that I'd be hard pressed to know what I would do without. We'd never have crossed paths if it weren't for this place.

I've had a pretty bad year. Not as bad as many, but bad enough that I've cried myself empty many a night. But thanks to my friends, I knew I would never be alone. Many many times they've lifted me up and cheered me up when I thought I was the most lowly and disgusting and miserable person on earth.

They sometimes get an undeserved bad rap, these friends of mine, but that's the other peoples' loss. Because never in my life have I come across such a group of witty, intelligent, loving, caring, and loyal people. I would do pretty much anything for them, and I am so grateful for their friendship.

you know we're here for you, jenz. {hugs} another chocolate martini at Mohegan Sun?

 

[WebmasterMaryJo]

<font face="Comic Sans MS"><font color=#006400>I've met people through the DIS that I know that I can count on, and I hope they know that they can count on me.

There are several of you that I think of from day to day, and not a day goes by when something reminds me of someone here on the DIS.

I'm not one to post that often, but I care about several people here.

 

[MonaCK]

Absolutely.

There are people that I have met as a direct result of being on here that I now consider in my arsenol of closest friends. From my first DIS meet especially, I met Ripleysmom and Briar Rose - my Long Island buddies.. and from there.. it's just grown

 

[DixieDreamer]

Tony - that was a great post. Yes, I have some very dear friends that I have made here on the DIS. People I want to have in my life - both here and IRL.

I understand completely what you mean about the sad part of having to say goodbye (at least for a while) to our DIS friends.

I know you and PandyPaws are good friends - anyone can see it when you are together. All smiles and having a good time. Hang on to that.

 

[Kama89]

Have you ever met anyone from the Net that turned out to be a TRUE lifelong friend?

Absolutely!!!

 

[buggin']

You mean like as close as you & Donna are?!?

Yeah, I sure have...!!!

Theres quite a lot of other DISers that I still havent met yet & would love to...think that those relationships could turn out to be lifelong ones as well...!!!

P.S.
Tony, you looked adorable with Santa Goofy today at EPCOT...!!!

 

[Mickey's sunshine]

Yes! I have a few that I have met that I hope to have a lif long friendship with! Some are real close and others are not so close. A couple of them helped me during a very hard time almost 2 years ago and I will forever be greatful to them!

 

[Marla Hellwig]

This past couple of weeks have shown me that I have friends here that I can count on when the chips crash around you.

Thanks

 

[catsrule]

Does Shep count?

 

[CarolAnnC]

I have made some wonderful friends from the DIS. I've even traveled to Texas to stay with one of them and met 2 more DISers that I now consider friends too.

I've also met some I didn't particularly care for and some that after meeting them a few times, now like
