i know what you all probably think already :(

is my experience in this on-line community less fulfilling & meaningful because i have not met a du'er in real life?

that's all

you don't even have to answer me

i probably don't even deserve a response

25. Not less of a person
but certainly less of a DUer. I'm sorry if that sounds harsh, but that truly is the reality of it. You have NO pictures to post, so, yes, I'm afraid so.

There's still hope for you, though. Set something up or travel somewhere. If you want to be really sneaky, you could always create a sockpuppet, arrange to "meet" and post all about it. You can just use a random pic of two people. Who would know?

But, the important thing, you will finally be one of us, or create the illusion of it.

30. Not much good has come out of DUers meeting; you are a better
person for it. Keep it online only.

32. It might mean you're less of an activist
If you go to protests, town halls, etc, you're more likely to run into one.

38. Not everywhere.
Those of us in rural areas are not as likely to meet a DU'er if we get involved locally. That's just the way it is for us. We would probably have to travel (in some cases, a few hours) before we run someone down.
I've only met two and that's because they are both friends that I referred over to DU. Otherwise there would be no one.
