I agree that a lot of bloggers are really good friends now, but I do still call them blog friends to people around me, becuase most of them don't understand how you can be friends with someone you have never met. But blog friends ARE my REAL friends!Kyria @ Travel Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05889638304509763419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-26582670592174137322012-01-19T14:57:22.279-06:002012-01-19T14:57:22.279-06:00One of my blog fiends became my girlfriend, so I h...One of my blog fiends became my girlfriend, so I had to stop calling her a "blog friend." ;)Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10034296312699922176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-55417908597535013242012-01-19T11:02:43.058-06:002012-01-19T11:02:43.058-06:00I still say "blog friends", especially w...I still say "blog friends", especially when talking to my "IRL" friends, but really, they are just friends. I think of it as saying something like "these are my college friends", "these are my work friends", "these are my blog friends". It doesn't mean I like them any less (actually more!), but it's just to clarify how I know someone.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09026566759989208220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-32251473027130154462012-01-19T01:40:46.028-06:002012-01-19T01:40:46.028-06:00I often still refer to people as "blog friend...I often still refer to people as "blog friends," but I don't mean that they are any less my friends than people I met elsewhere.

There are a lot of blogger friends who I just refer to as their name now (or...their twitter handle if I'm talking to Ben - ha!), and there are women in my life now I can't imagine not being there. It's crazy to think I would have never met them if not for blogging. <br /><br />October in D.C. baby - let's make it happen!Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497016301321352544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-51732805731609743722012-01-18T21:19:17.201-06:002012-01-18T21:19:17.201-06:00I'm so grateful for all of the people that I&#...I'm so grateful for all of the people that I've connected with through my blog.

Maybe it's because I actually haven't met too many blog-friends in person?<br /><br />I also use "girl I know" more with older people because they figure a blogging friend is some crazy chat room person that may be a serial killer, lol!Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071700151057759667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-34304400517822510542012-01-18T18:16:37.178-06:002012-01-18T18:16:37.178-06:00Sounds like a great trip!

Over the past few years, my blog friends turned IRL friends (even if I haven't met them yet)have gotten me through some hard times and I turn to them more often than the friends I've had since childhood. These friendships are amazing and definitely transcend time and distance. <br /><br />I cannot wait to meet you IRL one day but I do count you among my nearest and dearest!Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07840515813374990142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-88676457418240347002012-01-18T16:10:11.925-06:002012-01-18T16:10:11.925-06:00I have not met anyone in RL that I have met throug...I have not met anyone in RL that I have met through blogging, but I do care/wonder and genuinely support a core group of women (you included!) and no one outside of the blogging world understands...except hubs, because he said blogging has made me want to be a better person. I am truly inspired by so many people on here, and so yes, I consider them friends. :) LOVE bloggyland!!Jenn @ Bliss to Beanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02134766752500683257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-34727917466677134432012-01-18T15:27:01.431-06:002012-01-18T15:27:01.431-06:00It depends if I've met them or not.

If I've met them, they instantly become just a friend, regardless of how I met them or how often I see them. But sometimes it helps because if I refer to Amber, and Erik goes, "Who's that?" it makes more sense to say "A blogging friend" so that he doesn't try to figure out how I know you or if he's met them!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09845901120926051578noreply@blogger.com
