Every time I had a bad day I’d open the phone to messages of love and encouragement...

I loved 'talking' to Nick because I can write whatever I want without feeling pressured.

I can visit amazing places and talk to people without having to leave my room.

I forced my real life friends to join in. Even though I already knew my friends, talking them to on slowly was a completely different experience.

It was then that I realised why people used this app. It was the wait that made it worth it.

Because of you, I have 2 friends, one fluent with whom I share with all my trust and soul and another with whom I have to force myself a little.

We praatten net zo gemakkelijk in het echt als via de app, zwierven door het winkelcentrum en aten dessert bij Dippin’ Dots...

Ik gebruik Slowly nu pas een paar maanden, en ik kan niet stoppen met de app aanbevelen.

Natuurlijk ging socio-fobie nergens heen, maar het werd makkelijker om ermee te leven.

Ik was al verliefd op haar brieven voordat ik haar echte naam kende of voordat ik haar gezicht, een foto, had gezien; via haar brieven had ik gezien wat belangrijk is: haar ziel.

I've never had an easy time making friends, feeling much more comfortable talking through the computer screen or cell phone.

I can discuss Sheakespeare with a British, Volteire with French, Mauppassant…
