Does This Dude Have an Addiction or Just Mental Problems?

Question by Corey: Does this dude have an addiction or just mental problems?
To spend like 10 or more hours a day online in a chat room cuz that’s where all your “friends” and “gf” is….no interest in spending time looking for real life friends and considering the girls you talk to in the chat as real relationships that will go somehere? he seems to prefer online relationships to real ones and has no desire to even learn to drive when almost 17 and considers this chat room his “heroin”? does he have an addiction to this or is he just living in a fantasy world? just wondering your opinions. thanks

hey
well personally i think people that like to kinda live there life on the internet are probably insecure about themselves and such. Because on teh internet u can be who ever you want to be, and you can lie, and u dont have to face this person, and u dont have to deal with them if u dont want to ect. BUT what hes doing is un healthy. And if i were his mom i would limit his time on the computer per day to say 2 -3 hours per day. which is plenty. He really should go out and meet people. real people. People on the internet are real but there fake they can be lieing about there whole lives. and besides everyone needs friends that are actually going to BE THERE for them and you need people to social with hes 17! he should be going out with friends and party-ing u only live once. i think its more of an addiction. btw. plz help him before he wasted his life!
luv ali!
