I can still see where the op is coming from. no, it's not realistic to think that you will click with everyone but you do have to start wondering why you're clicking with NO ONE.

It's hard to sit on the sidelines and see everyone acting all bff and wondering what you've done wrong and why no one seems to even want to talk to you. I think you're being a bit unfair to the op by implying their being neurotic about it.

How can someone on the outside watch as people talk about what good friends they are in fandom and keep in mind that all of that may really mean nothing to them because they don't view online friendships seriously. No one knows how others perceive friendships online and yet all we have to go on is how WE feel.

You've just completely told the op that she's wrong for feeling the way she does and that it's her fault for not being able to connect with anyone.

Congratulations.

I don't remember saying that the OP was neurotic or that it was her fault for not connecting with people. *reads my comment again* Still don't see it.

The fact remains that you can't be a close friend to everyone, and people who don't connect with you aren't cruel or unfriendly. The answer is to look for people who have more than just an interest in whatever fandom you're into at the time. There are reasons that you aren't privy to as to why some of the people around you seem so close online, as I said in my original comment.

It's just a fact that not everyone takes internet 'friendships' as seriously as other people. You can't force someone to become your friend, especially on the internet. It's unfair to fault people who are able to make those relationships for your ability not to, which is how I read the secret.

I'm not saying the OP is wrong for expressing his/her feelings. But it's not fair to expect more from some people than they are willing to give, especially online.
