Some people see this as just any other internet forum that they will probably forget about five minutes after they log out. But, some members have gone on to have relationships, marriage, now even a behbeh. These are people who will probably remember LiveWire long after it's gone.

Has LiveWire actually affected your life, and will you remember it down the road? Or do you see it as just an internet forum?

Well without LiveWire I wouldn't have met David (and thus my boyfruend). I've been on LiveWire for so long I would be silly to think I'd ever log off and forget about it. Any activity that I do regularly for over a year become a pretty decent part of my life and I'll always hold memories of it.

i feel like thats cheating aha.

I didnt meet my significant other here (or at least not yet ) but livewire has definitely had a lasting impact on my life and helped me form friendships that even if they fade in the future, had drastically impacted me.

I feel like I'll put a downer on what is otherwise such a happy topic.

I have to say, it affected me in a bad way, but only to a certain point. I met my (ex) best friend on here and she turned out to be a complete psycho. Albeit, LW DOES have an Internet safety policy for a reason, which is why it's really not on LW's shoulders. She screwed me over badly for the best part of 5 years and messed my life up really badly. That all started here.

That said, i TALK to some lovely people on here and my life is a better place for having those. So i try and focus on that. I find the fact you met your partners on here amazingly cute.

Ps. I also cope with issues by helping other people, so yeah, when i had a rough time, this place was a massive part of my daily life. I like helping.

Ive only been here for coming up on 2 years, but I don't ever think I'll forget LiveWire. It's part of my routine now.  

I have met many great people here and become very good friends with some, and strengthened pre-existing friendships. That's something I would never give back and never forget. Who know what will happen to me with the remainder of time I have here?!

I've helped people get through tough times, encouraged others, and even made people hungry with my delicious posts of food I cook. It's fun and actually meaningful to me, even as insignificant as one little website may seem.

well considering my days active, it'd be hard to forget the site after so long hanging around

aside from that though, i'd say lw has affected my life in that i've gotten advice here, years ago probably, that did significantly help at a really difficult time in my life. and a friendship that i hope lasts a loooong time. so yeah it's affected my life and i'll remember it.

it's that place

Yes, i'll remember it. And not only for how it transfers to "real life", though that too.

LW had been my peek into the world for a few years (ha ha), had been the place to say whatever and see how people receive it, and also to offer support that i otherwise would not (i don't in real life much).

And i've met 5 people from here. 2 whom I'd met from the internet and not strictly met here, and 3 from here. 1 of them has been a huge part of my life.

But i also wanna agree with this:

I'll probably remember it forever, yeah. I met the people I love the most through this website, who in turned kept me alive. They made a huuuge impact on my life.

I even met the person who I thought for a long time that I would marry through this website.

It's pretty important to me. I've been on here since I was 15 and honestly the people have helped me a lot and despite what most people say, I've gotten a lot of support from this site, even if not through the topics directly. And two of my relationships happened because of LW. So yeah.
