Answer 1

It is often easier to communicate with strangers than with close friends, let alone family members. I am completely estranged from my family, and I keep in touch with my friends through email and related electronic means for the most part. I do not consider it a disadvantage as long as I have some actual human contact. I get less of that now, with a couple of good friends having moved two hours away, but I also am getting to know people here. I have lived here (St. Louis, Missouri) less than a year, so it takes time.

But look what I've gotten in exchange: friends literally all over the world! Friends whose faces I don't even know, but I know they have good hearts. And many of those might never have wanted to be my friend if they saw me in person first, because I'm morbidly obese, and many people are so turned off by fat that they don't bother to get to know the person. It's not even that they are prejudiced, exactly; it's that they simply do not get to know the heart of a person whose body turns them off.

In contrast, my family probably knows what I look like, because I look like them -- they are all fat, because we are genetically and culturally programmed for it. But they do not know my heart in the least, and I wonder often whether they even have hearts. (Only a slight exaggeration there; I'm sure they pump their blood around their bodies.)

I want to be very careful letting my neighbors know me personally. If they don't like what they learn, it could be awkward. Or if I don't like what I learn about them. I prefer to make friends slowly if they know where I live. Don't you think that's sensible?

Plus I met my best friend through Yahoo! Answers, and then got to meet him in person at the Answers birthday party last December. We are both fat, and probably would never have come to appreciate one another if we had not first known each other through our questions and answers and our 360 blogs.

Answer 2

Since they personally know us. We can't always tell our heart out to them. There's a fear always that they might use that information sometime else.On the internet we are not related neither much bothered about them. We can be anonymous and need not reveal our identity. That's it i think
