I enjoy being online, but don't miss it when I'm away, and I often choose now to go and do something else in the evenings even if I'm not going out. That said, I really love being online, and find it much more productive than sitting passively in front of the box when there's nothing good on. I spent last night watching a very moving documentary about Tony Robinson and care for the elderly. And an interesting one about the Jewish community in Belfast. Then I stumbled across a great programme about the Yorkshire Ripper Hoaxer. Not my usual kinds of programmes, but they were thought provoking and interesting.

I'll confess now that my first year of being online was one of complete addiction. I did MSN, stayed on forums with my dial up for hours on end - far exceeding the package I'd sorted out! Some of my phone bills were truly shocking!!! And I thought more about online than I did about real life. I can't believe I let it get to me that way, and I do see the dangers in it now.

But then I'm a bit like that generally. I get all obsessed about something for a limited period and then move on to a new obsession. I take after my dad!

same here (again vagabond!!) but it was new to me and I was very much enjoying it. I got a bit of stick about it too. Now although I read and post most days I don't read every thread (I'm talking about BBfans ) and don't post as much as I used to. I have met some great friends online and have no regrets but I also enjoy my 'real ' life too. I enjoy time spent on here especially as I am a single parent and have to stay in most of the time and I've had some great laughs over the months as well. ()^

I feel exactly the same as you HC.

I still love coming on the internet but it isn't the obsession it was.. I quite often only read the things I think I might be interested in and don't post like I used to.

But I really value the friends I have made from this site, they are people I talk to and text away from the internet now..

well, i use the internet for work as well as chat so don't feel too bad about this. Usually when I come on here it's when I've got a spare few minutes between two meetings or something, or later in the evening when I'm relaxing. But it can be a bit distracting sometimes when i'm working at home for the day....
