<p>Hey, so this girl that i'm friends with acts like she's my really good friend and all when i talk to her on the internet or like on the phone. She talks to me on the internet literally everyday. But then, if i see her in person, she acts really awkward. Like she wont say anything at all and she'll kind of stay away from me...so i'm not really sure what to make of this. She isn't like this with anyone else, so i'm confused.</p>
<p>maybe she likes you and is shy around you when in person?</p>
<p>on the contrary she could have put you in the category of "AIM/phone friend". She might just be bored and you're there for her to talk to.</p>
<p>Most likely what otacon88 said, but also consider what atomicfusion said (proceed with caution). Girls can be quite confusing...</p>
<p>someone prob jacked her sn. i doubt you are even talking to her online.</p>
<p>Shes A Man Baby!!!!</p>
<p>wow, thanks for the advice steis and hokegoalie, that made me feel awesome lol. </p>
<p>I don't think she classifies me as aim/phone friend just because she'll even go and tell her other friends that she's good freinds with me and blah blah...but then if i see her in person(which i do pretty often), she just starts acting really awkward. Oh, and i'm pretty sure she doesn't like me as anything more than a friend.</p>
<p>are you in very different social groups?</p>
<p>^^well if she tells her friends she's good friends with you...i suppose your social circles don't really collide or anything.</p>
<p>i think it's just the symptoms of cyber communication. you can detach yourself from any actual awkwardness from physical contact and just type away as you don't take direct responsibility over it. basically....she feels more comfortable telling you stuff face to face than in person...which is the case for many people. </p>
<p>ever heard of myspace or facebook...if you have it you know what i mean. people "friend" you all the time on those, whether you know them well or not, but would you meet them in person and call them your friend? probably not. </p>
<p>anyway, that may be a little extreme in relation to your case. but try talking to her about what you guys wrote about on aim last night, maybe that will loosen her up. </p>
<p>
oh yes...because only men can be attracted to women...lesbians actually don't exist anymore b/c they couldn't reproduce...haha</p>
<p>technology is killing social skills.

That is beautiful. Your sceenname kills me.</p>
<p>Well I also have had a few friends who were girls who I'd only really talk to on the phone and AIM. They'd also tell their friends that they were good friends with me. But in reality they weren't. You can't be "good friends" with someone unless you talk to them in person during school and probably hang out with them out of school (if it's possible to... if it's not long distance). I used to be in your shoes, so trust me when I tell you that you're going to need to talk to "girls who are good friends" in person and hang out with them, if you want to really be good friends with them.</p>
<p>Thanks for all the advice guys.</p>
<p>There are some weirdos that are extremely confident via msn/aim and extremely awkward outside the internet-world..</p>
<p>I know this person who's like that. Extremely extroverted on msn but really annoying/boring/shy/awkward in real life.</p>
<p>I personally dislike these kinda people. It's like, they've got no ssocial skills or something and they depend on the internet for their social problems..</p>
<p>yeah NoFX, I kinda used to be like that somewhat. More extroverted online (but I wasn't completely terrible in real life at least). It's not good...</p>
<p>Haha, this girl isnt like that. She acts perfectly normal around other people in person. Even people that she talks to online a lot...i dont like her as anything more than a friend, but i just felt hurt when i realized that she was so awkward around me in person. Oh, and another thing, she went to my school and i talked to her at school everyday and i see her around a lot, so its not like i never used to talk to her in person before.</p>
<p>Well, it appears that you don't like her. I thought maybe you thought about pursuing her. If you like her as only a friend, then things will be okay until she tells you how she feels. If she tells you she likes you, then you're gonna have to find a way to deal with that. But I guess you should go with the way things are and not think too much about that.</p>
