Do you have a pen pal?

I mean, did you have a pen pal?

I think you really mean, "Have you ever had a pen pal?"

I wonder how many pen pal relationships continued via internet, and still exist today.

I actually do. I live (near) Toronto, and she's in NYC.

We did a pen pal thing when I was in, like, the second grade or something. We only exchanged letters once though. I think, though, that the traditional pen pal practice is largely dead at this point. With things like Facebook and IM, that person on the other side of the globe becomes instantly accessible, forming, what I feel is, friendship on a very different level from a traditional pen pal.

I'm in Arizona and met an Australian girl on Omegle that I talk to all the time, usually everyday. Does that count?
