It’s not uncommon nowadays for someone to foster a deep friendship with another person they met online. Finding friends through Facebook, twitter, or Instagram is actually a great thing because you discover other people who are like you even though you live in different parts of the world.

Finding new friends through twitter likes is not something new for twitter users. You may come across a user from your twitter searches or see their tweets retweeted by your other followers. Then you start to visit their profile and place twitter likes here and there. Then you follow each other’s account and start to have more regular tweet conversations and sooner or later, you’ll become friends.

There are many new friendships started over the Internet thanks to situations like these. If you have an Internet friend you feel close to but have never met, then you know the feeling. However, because you don’t know them, still exercise caution and never reveal any personal and/or sensitive information to them because there are criminals out there who want to gain your trust.
