You're right! There are risks involved. But I now want to be more guarded and careful with my heart and with whom I choose to share details of my life.
I got sort of close to this one woman IRL, and she turned out to be really flaky. So I haven't pursued the friendship. She would text, telling me to call her as soon as I woke up, or she would say things like "love you" and "miss you", and then whenever I would call or reply, she wouldn't pick up the phone or reply back. So I gave up trying after a couple weeks of this.
