First of all: how me and Kiera became friends.

Me and Kiera both joined this website, which I’m not going to name, but it was a website where you had an avatar and you would mingle with people from all around the world. (It was also for 13+ and I was 10 when I joined…) We were both in the same room on the website and we started talking somehow (I don’t really remember but it might have something to do with a YouTube video being on the screen). After that one interaction, we kept going on the website everyday, finding each other in the same room, talking and we eventually became Internet friends. (And the rest, as they say, is history!) 🙂

Kiera: Tips for making Internet friends:

Join websites or social media – Obviously you want to make friends online and the only way that’s going to happen is if you are active online and are signed up to websites. Twitter is a good social media to join as people are always online joining in with conversations on popular subjects and Tumblr is also good for mutual interests. Another option is joining social websites, for example like the one me and Beth met on.

Be active – The only way you’re going to make friends is if you keep active on the websites you’ve joined as one conversation is not enough to make a friend. Keep going online everyday to continue the conversation with the people you were speaking with before and you’ll eventually become friends.

Fandoms – If you’re in a certain fandom, follow fan accounts in the same fandom, contribute to discussions in the fandom and be active in the fandom. This way you will make friends with people who like/love something that you also do and you will have something to keep talking about.

Don’t be scared – Some people may think it’s scary to become friends with people online because they could be fake, but there are so many people online nowadays that one friend you make won’t be fake. Majority of the people you will meet online will be 100% real, but always get
