Making friends in real life is different because you can actually see the person and read their body language. It's easier to trust someone when you meet face-to-face, and you can do things together, like playing sports or studying. I think these friendships feel more real and deep because you can help each other out in person when needed.

Online friendships are different because you can meet people from anywhere in the world. It's easier to find people who share your interests, and you can chat whenever you want, even late at night. Some people feel less shy online, but sometimes it's hard to know if someone is telling the truth.

Both types of friendships have their own challenges and benefits. Online friends might not always be as reliable as real-life friends, and real-life friendships can take more time and effort to keep up. Online friendships are convenient, but sometimes they don't feel as meaningful. Still, both kinds of friends can be important, depending on the situation.
