I did say there were not useless and I think our being able to continue our friendship despite the distance is proof of that!

Yes, it lets me keep in touch with people far away both physically and temporally but really, does it mean anything? No. And I get requests for 'friendship' every so often from people I either barely know or don't at all. What's the point? I prefer LiveJournal, though that's becoming passe, because you generally have to have something to say to be bothered to post. Same thing with blogspot, I guess.<br /><br />Electronic connection is far inferior to face to face, but in some cases, it's better than nothing. Especially with folks like you and me who might otherwise not have ever connected again.

I think you are saying because you have a lot of difficulty relating to people in life that Facebook lets you have superficial contact which gives you a small taste of social contact without the risk? That seems to confirm my idea that these social networks keep some people from having to deal with others or themselves in anything other than a depersonalized way. Something I don't really want to be a part of.Behemoth mediahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06224320582603239565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414147859974935053.post-40762144615720092982010-09-09T11:00:03.052-04:002010-09-09T11:00:03.052-04:00Hello Vincent-Louis.

Solicitation, stimulation, feeling exasperation, it is what I am experiencing now. I'm in a deep relationship that nourishes me and kills me at the same time. The usual loving triangle. So, I am often more than happy to surf with others, not making too much commitment, because, the other way, I would tell again and again my story to the point of being heavy. My dream is simple: be able to love intensively a companion without any fear, even for a fraction of a little second. Facebook is the shadow of that, I think.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14706765411928359193noreply@blogger.com
