Making Friends On The Cyberspace ( part 2)

hello everyone, i just think about my friend and how i made friend with they....

Friendships online is different

The friendships you are able to build online are different form the friendships you have with people you physical interact daily. This is because they are coming from different face of the earth. Your religions and traditions are not the same. Your beliefs are different. Your perspectives differ largely. More likely, you do not have something in common. Because of this, it will be harder for you to mingle with easily. You really need to work on it. It doesn’t happen in an instant. But, you can do something to bridge the gap.

Another thing is that you have never seen these people personally. They may have pictures in their profiles, but their pictures do not necessarily give the whole idea of who they are. You don’t have any knowledge on how they think about so many things; how they react, perhaps; what they hate; what they like most; there are still a lot more things you don’t know about them. So, you need to be careful and it will take you an extra mile to get things well with them.

Also, trust is difficult to build in the online environment. Nowadays, a lot of people are already using the internet to promote bad and immoral things. You don’t know 100% if the person you are trying to make friends with is noble and sincere in the intention of making friends with you. You don’t know the back of their minds. Thus, it makes a whole lot different case meeting with people in the real world.

Of course, it’s not only you who finds it hard to trust. They too are keeping themselves a little reserved to ensure their safety as well. They do not know if your intentions are really good. They still need to find it out for themselves.

Mostly, when you are making friends through the internet, both of you tend to communicate more in the general way. This happens because of the trust issue that is creating the gap between you. It is normal and it does make sense. You have to understand them the way they also understand your side.

It might be difficult at first. But once you have gained their trust as well as them getting your trust, creating a sincere friendship will make itself through.

See you soon...
