What are the advantages/dis of belonging to an internet social site versus belonging to a group of real-life friends who get together often?

good thing, because right now I don't look very good at all. 

Maybe next year. 

You wold always look great to me.  ????

Thank you. Shar to the Rona. ????

True. Or your financial situation or your home or your car or your success or your degrees. All we have from one another are words that convey ideas. Nothing more. Thank you for your thoughtful answer cp. You can also leave an internet social site when you want and show up when you want and ignore some and engage with some. In real life you don't always have control. On the internet you are ALWAYS in control! :)
