Is it normal you are my friend for the summer?

The reason why I come here every damn day to is it normal is because I don't have any available real friends to hang with right now. I moved to a new city a year ago and have only managed to make a single good friend, who is busy more often than not. I don't have a job yet and I take some classes but not for the summer months. Most of my hobbies are solitary and I like that but I wish I had friends to go for coffee or beer with. Nice people, who would tell me all about their lives and all I'd have to do is listen, give the occasional feedback, and enjoy their company. Thanks for being my my backup plan for the summer, members of IIN. Am I the only one who uses is it normal as a replacement for real life friendships that aren't happening? Is this normal?

    I still hang with friends even though I come on here a lot. But really, I need to get out more often. Yeah, good call.

    Aww:(. I see my friends all the time and still come on here everyday. I've never seen it as a replacement for anything other than boredom. And even then, that's not why I usually come here.

    I suggest you go out and meet some new people. IIN isn't a substitute, at least not a good one. In my opinion, I don't think it's possible to replace a good friend. You might make some of those here, but it obviously can't be the same as being able to meet someone and actually talk to them. I guess I can understand why you'd turn to IIN, though. The people here are great, and I would consider a lot of the users as friends:).

    You sound like me. Hehe. I'm pretty much the same way since what I like to do during summer time is very different from what my generation likes to do during summer time. Plus, I come here every day whether it's summer time or not. But yes, what you're doing it's normal and I'm sure you and I aren't the only ones.
