Wanna be friends?

I find it so funny that it's easy to make "friends" online.

Face to face, making friends can be a bit of a process. It could take a couple of meetings or a month, maybe more. One never knows what will start that bond- I once glared at someone for cutting ahead of me in line, and BAM! Friend!

In real life though, unless you're in kindergarten or younger than that, you don't walk up to someone and say, "Hey you're cool! Wanna be friends?". That changes online. We will "friend" someone whom we have never met in person. The more impersonal the source (Facebook v.s. Tumblr) the more intense these feelings of friendship seem to be.
