I feel the same way, Ted. Well, not about my therapist. I feel safer with him than anyone. But I definitely find friendships easier in this medium. It seems to be more in line with my capabilities. And I do see you guys as "real" people.
But I guess there is a difference. People come and go here a lot more than in real life, in my real life anyway. My friends are ones I've had since high school, grammar school even. So maybe this place is helping me learn to deal with loss in a way that I generally don't have to in real life.
Gosh. This started out being a positive post, but now I feel downright melancholy.
