Five years ago on Twitter.com a friend of mine was tweeting back and forth between some girl I had never met before. Being the nosy human I am I jumped into the conversation and then went and stalked the girl's page. Rebecca* and I had very similar interests and she only lived 30 minutes away from me.

Since that day we became twitter friends or "mutuals" and we frequently chatted back and forth discussing bands and concerts we had been too. I loved her personality and was hoping that one day we would finally be able to hang out in real life instead of just talking through social media.

For a few years, Rebecca and I attended the same shows yet somehow never met, every time she was in my area I somehow seemed to miss her. We always said we needed to meet up but the time was never perfect. Flash forward to summer 2019, this was the summer of concerts and I knew that someway somehow my dear Twitter friend and I were going to meet.

A couple of weeks before the first show she messaged me and said that her friends got an Airbnb for the concert and they had an extra bed for me to stay in, finally I was going to meet my gal pal. So for the weeks up until the concert I briefly got to know the other girls I was going to be staying with.

The day finally came and we decided to meet at Cracker Barrel. So the first time I met Rebecca and Anna* was in the bathroom at Cracker Barrel. We had a fun weekend in Atlanta, we visited the aquarium, picked up our friend from the airport, went to a park and rocked out to our favorite bands. It was one of the best weekends of my life.

After that weekend I continued to stay in contact, I have gone to several more concerts with these gals as well. I have grown so close to them and we always have so much fun together, they are supporting and beautiful and such wonderful people. Because of them, I have met other wonderful people at concerts and I now have a group of people no matter what concert I go to.

Twitter is a social media website full of jokes and celebrities making political statements, but for me, it is where I met a group of girls so close to me that I would die for them.
