    i hate to be pessimistic but this will not work on people who have always had difficulty making friends or relationships

    some people do have poor social skills therefore have become reclusive and unable to engage in conversations and build relationships

    trust me i am one of them

    I completely agree with meeting people via social networking. I frequent a natural hair website, and I met a great group of friends just from a meet up post in a forum 3 years ago. We're all still hanging tough & support each other in various endavors.

    it will lead to problems.

    trust me.

    i've never seen that end well.
