As far as I know, none of my "real life" friends are on livejournal. I stumbled onto it through reading on-line fanfic and in the beginning I just checked community pages without having an lj of my own. I eventually signed up and joined the communities I was interested in so as to be able to read them in one easy place. Then my natural curiousity took over and I would check out the journals of people posting in the communities and people posting comments and then people posting comments on those journals until I wasn't quite sure how I got to a specific journal. At some point something somebody had posted prompted me to get up the courage to comment and thankfully they didn't feel stalked but responded and after a few comments back and forth even asked about friending me. My life on lj has grown slowly from there.
And now I have 59 friends! (thank goodness not all of post every day or I'd be reading my flist until it was dark outside!) Well, I don't post very often, so I am 'helpful' in that regard. *grin* Generally, I post a lot more comments to other people's entries than entries of my own.
