they could be but friends that you meet and associate with in your real life would be more meaningful. |

No, unless these online friends have become real-life friends.
We can never ascertain sincerity online, no matter how sincere the person is in real life. We can never feel the warmth of one's shoulders if we need one to cry on. We will never get someone online tapping us gently on our backs when we are crying a river. |

of course not. i would classify all my "online friends" as mere acquaintances because there's so little to learn about a person by just exchanging messages, pictures, or information online compared to spending time with a real person and be-friending them in real life.
what a loser life would that be if all a person had for friends were online friends... ever heard of an eyeball? |

Not really.
Cause real life friends can totally understand you and they know you very well than your on line friends. Though online friends are ok as well. |

Yes. I value my friends.. virtually and in real life. As long as I know them well. I have friends here in YAP and value their friendship and consider them real friends even if I have never met them. Because I know I will meet them for sure someday.

Physical presence is also important in relationships (like friendship), like intimacy in a romantic one (which is why long-distance relationships hardly work). There are some things your "real life" friends can give you that your online friends can't. Your friendship with online friends are more bounded.
However, value is relative. |

It depends. You can find real friends from your online or virtual friends. |
