1:14 am MeghanTucker: I've found that my OF tend to understand me a little better sometimes. #inspchat
1:14 am homewiththeboys: True. RT @monicabrand: my IRL friends are busy. my OL friends can pick up convos w/me easily, anytime. makes it easy to connect #inspchat

1:14 am unvlmom: @monicabrand so true. and OF friends are all over so someone is bound to be around whenever you need them. #inspchat
1:14 am dutchbeingme: @GatherInspirit I think because 1) I'm more honest/open in social networking and 2) because they read my blog and interact w/ me #inspchat
1:14 am shelbylyn1982: @Gatherinspirit I think it is bec. I feel I can be more open with OF sometimes - like @Dutchbeingme said "maybe I'm more honest" #inspchat
1:14 am KristiStephens: To be honest, I think we can rely on OF because it's easier! You can step away/ pull back whereas IP friends take real sacrifice. #inspchat
1:15 am momofAJ: Hi! I have found some wonderful OF, they are so encouraging & supportive about homeschooling and blogging. #inspchat
1:15 am karen_hammons: @homewiththeboys @monicabrand Exactly... IRL's tend to be too busy... but I understand why. #inspchat
1:15 am ProverbsWife: Yep! Especially blogging stuff. @MeghanTucker I've found that my OF tend to understand me a little better sometimes. #inspchat
1:15 am erinclosingtime: @monicabrand I have experienced the same thing...OF are so available! #inspchat
1:15 am CreatorsPalette: OF really read to understand - IP friends skim my writing and often know less about me than OF #inspchat
1:15 am theoutdoorwife: @MeghanTucker Hey you!! #inspchat
1:15 am monicabrand: it's a new world. OL is just as real, important as "real" relationships. #inspchat
1:15 am HomeschoolSue: @KristiStephens Such a good point! #inspchat
1:15 am KristiStephens: It is so true, though, that the ppl who read my blog consistently often know that side of me MUCH better that IP friends. #inspchat
1:15 am aunt_nette: @shelbylyn1982 I agree. it "IS" easier to be open with OF #inspchat
1:16 am homewiththeboys: RT @KristiStephens: I think we can rely on OF bcuz it's easier! U can step away/ pull back whereas IP friends take real sacrifice. #inspchat

1:16 am aunt_nette: wow - this tweetchat is really hopping! it's exciting! #inspchat
1:16 am unvlmom: @MeghanTucker OF are usually like minded or have more in common then IP , or at least that is what I have found. #inspchat
1:16 am erinclosingtime: With OF, it's easy to find people you connect with and have a great deal in common with. #inspchat

1:17 am erinclosingtime: IP we're often friends with those who are close geographically, rather than those we might connect best with. #inspchat
1:17 am ProverbsWife: So true. @ monicabrand it's a new world. OL is just as real, important as "real" relationships. #inspchat
1:17 am unvlmom: RT @monicabrand: @momofAJ yes, the homeschooling connect is HUGE online. praise God!!! #inspchat
1:17 am a_steady_rain: So true! RT @erinclosingtime: With OF, its easy to find people you connect with and have a great deal in common with. #inspchat
1:17 am unvlmom: Does anyone have the tweetdeck link ? #inspchat
1:17 am dutchbeingme: @homewiththeboys It's not that I can't... it's just that I live such a different life than what they do. IP = too busy. #inspchat
1:17 am aunt_nette: w/ OF you can take time in responding, think about answers more carefully...seem wiser? LOL #inspchat
1:18 am erinclosingtime: RT @homewiththeboys Feeling a little sad that so many can't open up to IP friends... {It is sad...I've experienced this a lot!} #inspchat

1:27 am shelbylyn1982: Do you drop all your OF boundaries if you meet once IRL - just asking? Thinking about #relevant10 #inspchat

1:28 am karen_hammons: @MeghanTucker Have a great night! #inspchat
1:28 am sarahmaeblogs: Since some of this convo is geared towards privacy, think I should share a vid of my girl tomorrow? Was going to for a link-up #inspchat

1:33 am GatherInspirit: And are your more open with your online friends or in-person ones? #inspchat
1:33 am karen_hammons: But I completely understand why people do it... #inspchat
1:33 am shelbylyn1982: Sometimes I wonder what I am teaching my DD by having more OF than IP friends - do I want her to "trust" OF more than IP friends? #inspchat
1:33 am dutchbeingme: @GatherInspirit I do think I drop a lot of my boundries once they are IRL friends. At least from previous blog conference. #inspchat

1:35 am KristiStephens: @GatherInspirit I try to balance - if I'm spilling my guts to OF when I wouldn't IP, perhaps it's too personal! #inspchat
1:35 am TheMamazine: At the same time I think if you hold too much back its hard to form those wonderful relationships and make online friends. #inspchat
1:35 am dutchbeingme: Probably OF. RT @GatherInspirit: Are you more open with your online friends or in-person ones? #inspchat
