I think your counselor gave you very good advice. I also think one should not "date" online. You can start to get to know someone online. But if it's turning serious at all, then phone conversations and meetings in public places should happen fairly soon. Trust, but verify. Online it's much too easy for people to pretend to be someone they are not.

Doesn't make me feel better, no meaning to me for sure.
Can't stop you from praying and blessing me,
and if that makes you feel better feel free.
But keep it to yourself please, don't tell me.
And let's all respect each other's feelings.
With kindness, support and "sweet dreamings."
