Have you met 'proper' friends on hitched?

Friends you call on in a crisis, who you would do anything for and will be in your life for a long time sort of friends

I have and I really count myself lucky. While I was slicing potatoes before (?) I was trying to think how many hitchers I have met, I lost count but I'm guessing around 30-40 and more to add on a few weeks! Quite of these folks have really become close friends and a small group who I would count as my best friends (well one of them brought me to hitched and the others I met here.) Because of my health and the fact I've never worked, not really able for night school etc, I've not met many friends 'in real life' so I'm very thankful for my weirdie friends!

I have little groups of friends in my head; My really close friends, Edinburgh, North West, London, Flickr, good old 'direct from hitched' friends and people I really want to meet. There is some crossing over, obviously. ? I really dread to think what my life would be like without this place.

So, what about you?

    I have made fucking marvelous friends here, bloody brilliant.
    And i have absolutely turned to them in my umpteen crisis, and they have listened to me, met up for coffee, taken me on nights out, sent me cheery emails and texts.
    they are bloody brilliant and i absolutley class them as my most excellent friends.

    group hug ?

    I have been on holiday with someone I met on hitched ? Met in April 2005, became firm friends. Holidayed in August 2007 with the families!

    There's another whos a very good friend that I met on hitched, pure coincedence that she lived in same town as me AND had a baby the day before me, at the same hospital, same midwife? Yep, we couldn't not meet up ?

    I've also got a few other hitchers whom I consider friends that I've both met and haven't.

    Yay for hitched ?

    and still you like me! ? ive met quite a few hitchers, become friends with a few but fg is one of my best mates, and without hitched we wouldnt have met?

    Yes I have, and not all of them are people I have met irl. Mr v, however, insists that none of you are real and that you're all in my head.
