Friends I have never met

It's an odd thing.

When I look think of my friends I have the classic ones like everyone else. My old school friends, my work friends etc, but there has developed a group of friends who I have never met.
The odd thing is that I tend to talk to them more than my physical friends, and no, they are not my plants etc.

The internet has a lot to answer for, I started to play online Facebook games in order to develop my network, and, as a wanna-be writer, the more people I network with, the better the pool of knowledge I can draw from.

These friends in particular are not from Facebook though, well, not all of them, Joanne from Maryland, Sam from Newzealand etc are facebook people I talk to regularly, but the minecraft friends I talk to a lot.

Please though, if you have never played Minecraft I do ask you to avoid it, it sucks your life away.

I guess a friend is someone who makes you feel you are not alone. Who don't expect huge things and accept you for who you are. So who cares if they are unseen, they are still my friend.
