Actually if you can make friends on, home, it just proves a point that you can make friends and perhaps you not as socially inept as home users are made out to be. The only thing in home is that I’ve been added not because what I bring to they lives but what I bring to they home lives. Example of that is rewards. I had no problem playing the dust slay mini game, and have beat it repeatedly. Happen to mention it in a chat room on another home site. Next I got a bunch of friends requests including ones that asked if id log in as them and get them the rewards they craved so much. Again I was one of the first to buy the mansion, again someone asked me what I thought of it, again people saw the chat and again friends requests galore. Friends in home can be friends just because of a standing it gives them or ability to get something they couldn’t before. I’m quite lucky as I’ve got good friends on home that would take 30 seconds to reply to a message but could any of them be friends outside of home, one or two perhaps. I’ve very lucky outside of home that I have friends that are more extended family that friends.

Totally agree with you two, Burbie and Strom. Home can be so therapeutic for some. For someone that had a sheltered and limited world outside of family, Home has helped me grow and learn first had about real friendship. Though I don’t have a full list of friends and have had to delete a few bad apples, I wouldn’t trade the pain or heartbreak for the real and lasting friends I have made through Home. YAY to FRIENDS!!!

Good article

The friends I have here in Home are very real to me. We laugh and cry together, we talk about everything under the sun, and even though we may never really meet in “real life” some of us see each other on camera and Skype, and I would jump at the chance to actually meet them face to face.
Friendship is based on trust, like any good relationship. It takes a lot of trust to be apart from people yet feel free to speak to them openly. Home has given us this ability, and in doing so opened many people up. Trust can be abused, yes, but even that is a learning experience for us if we push past the hurt and move on.
Nice article Strom.
