of course there is a lot to do in real life....maybe you just haven't come across the right kind of friends.i believe in real friendships rather than friendships we strike up with pseudo personalities in cyberspace.see,on forums like this,we can exchange views and ideas...i do not see the need for using this as a place to "find new friends"....the people in my buddy list for instance are people i personally know or became friends with after repeated one-to-one conversations in threads.
