seeing them in person + irl activities
Actually being there physically
Less bias
the few short times i *have* had in person friends since i was really young, i did like hanging out with them in person sometimes and i do kinda miss that.
Shared experience
in-person conversation and going out together
The face-to-face contact, being able to spend time together (that isn't just over a screen)
Hugs
You can meat them IRL
I can see them IRL and do IRL stuff with them or something like that.
There is some kind of a "physical" aspect to it. I miss my offline friends even when I talk to them (thanks COVID-19). I miss being around them. They can read your body language better in person. And there are more opportunities to have fun or just do timepass.
In person hanging out
Physical contact
We can do more than just talk or call or game together
Disconnection from my other friends/family, lack of judgement/different standards
Meeting people face to face and actually "knowing" them.
I can directly talk to them, go places with them, etc.
Couch Co-op games, sometimes it's nice to go out for drinks with the guys
Ditto
physical affection
