I made a friend in VR

Picture this: You're strapped into your VR headset, exploring a virtual world, when suddenly you stumble upon a digital soulmate. You hit it off instantly, sharing virtual high-fives and exploring pixelated paradises together. You're convinced you've found your new best friend – until reality comes crashing down. As you remove your headset, you realize your newfound companion is just a bunch of ones and zeros. But hey, at least they'll never eat the last slice of pizza or borrow money without paying you back. Welcome to the brave new world of virtual friendships, where the bonds are strong, the memories are fabricated, and the Wi-Fi connection is everything.
