Genuine YouTube Friends?

Wouldn't you say though that your size makes that a bit more important? Like in that scenario it's not just a friendship it's almost like a business decision. I mean unless I'm misunderstanding due to your vagueness but it appears to me you're not naming names because these channels are large so isn't it almost like... your job to make those kinds of friends? Legitimately curious over here :)

I understand your point but that's not really the situation. They're in a completely different genre and I haven't done collabs with them or anything. It's just nice to talk with other likeminded youtubers and see what they're doing, and it helps motivate you to do more yourself.

Pretty sure it's close to three yeah... But yeah I mean even though you're miles away in Canada we're not some little like... "oh me and this girl talk sometimes on the net" LOL We've BEEN THROUGH s**t, we totally get each other and have helped each other through a huge amount of history so I mean... you can certainly make some very real relationships through the net. Now how rare a friendship like ours is this I don't know, I just know it's an irreplaceable part of my life now and thats all I know.

That's pretty encouraging, it can get easy to start assuming alot of the large channel's "friendships" are just for show, well if anything you start thinking it cause so many people say it all the time hahaha hooray for large channels that are just friends![DOUBLEPOST=1415457093,1415457072][/DOUBLEPOST]

Have you guys made any true friends through YouTube? People that you communicate with regularly, maybe met up in person or exchanged numbers?

I've got a couple people who regularly watch my videos, and I will regularly watch theirs, but I wouldn't consider anyone a close friend.

Share!

What be friends? :/
 
Besides the friends I had IRL first, the closest it gets is on skype :) It's always cool to have friends from all over the world you do learn a lot from them too :D
