I wish I could delete the conversations of people who don't respond anymore (rather than waiting until the system says they are stale) but other than that its a good site.

I have been corresponding with the same person weekly for the last few months. I don't socialize much in person anymore so this is a nice way to be able to interact

I have made great friends and shared ideas. I loved sharing ideas with different people from different countries. I have changed my perspective on being alone in the world.
