    I have about 4 great friends who are my best buds, but they ridicule me when I mention anything pony related. I love them But i wanna find some new friends, or basically bronies that I can talk to. Maybe on Facebook or even in real life. But it's hard to find any in my small town. What do I do? Where do I go?

    Facebook. If your lucky you could find a page for meet ups in your area.

    As far as real life goes, you can google around and see if there are any cons close to where you live. Even if there's one like a city over, potential friends there might live in your town or close to it. You never know. Other than that, my only idea is to wear a My Little Pony T-Shirt around. If you're too shy about it, you could always wear a less obvious shirt that only a brony would recognize, like one of these for example:

    http://www.welovefine.com/3667-discord-nouveau.html
    http://www.welovefine.com/3380-discord-is-best.html
    http://www.welovefine.com/485-elements-harmony.html
    http://www.welovefine.com/851-mustache-spike.html

    These could get stranger-bronies to approach you about the show, which saves you the effort of finding 'em. :D

    As for online, well, you're sure in the right place to find brony friends. There are more forums at your disposal, too; just google "my little pony forum" and you're golden.

    Don't mention ponies and don't ask for advice on a site like this.

    you can try and find friends by using social networking sites and saying if there are any other bronies in your area to meetup

    You don't have to go out looking for them! Like love, it's better to wait until it comes to you. :) Not that there's any harm in looking, but it's more important to focus on yourself more than devoting your time and effort to seeking others. For the meantime, I agree with Testy. Don't mention ponies if they instantly ridicule you, it's not worth it. They have their opinions, but I'm sure you'll meet plenty of other people in your time that you will have the oppertunity to grow close to. ^-^ Jud keep your head up and don't let it get to you. There's enough people in this world to go around.

    I don't care what people think of me. Il wear a pink my little pony shirt in the middle of New York City. I could care less about others opinions. I'm just saying it would be cool to have a brony friend in real life.
