Hi Jess12
You'll find loads of friends on TamaTalk - because it's a friendly site.
Just make sure you regularly visit a variety of forums - especially Help for New Tamagotchi Owners, What's On Your Mind, Fun Stuff and Introductions - make helpful, friendly posts and you'll soon find that you can send a friendly PM to another member and they will be your friend.
I've always just assumed that everyone on TamaTalk is my friend!
Best, etc.
TamaMum
