1. It is a bit upsetting when people ignore anything for an addiction, and online can definitely become a consuming addiction or escape. However, some of us just really aren't interested in the things that most of our RL friends want to do. When I'm on vacation, I like going out and sightseeing. While I'm here, I love having picnics and reading in the park and just taking walks. ERrrrr, my friends just want to get high, drunk, or meet up with boys that I don't care to interact with :O but maybe I just met the wrong crowd? In the end, I hardly have any time for RL friends or OL friends, and OL takes less energy, lol. I'd rather be alone in nature either way than spend time on the computer or with stoners ;B


It's not good to shut yourself off completely, though. At all.
