When you have a mental illness it is easy to fall into traps. If you meet someone online and they seem like the great love of your life after only a few sort conversations than you are being CONNED.

List of Lines a Predator Uses:
1. I'm falling in love with you.
2. I've never felt this way before so quickly.
3. We can be good together.

The predator has said it before and will say it again to another girl. HOWEVER the dead giveaway is that the predator calls you by another woman's name- repeatedly.

The only good thing about this is that yes, you did meet a predator but a really, REALLY stupid one.

We all get conned sometimes. I say "blame it on Disney."

There's an old poem called the spider and the fly. "Come into my parlour, said the spider to the fly...". Look it up.

Basically, you are vulnerable and need to be extremely vigilant

I would frankly suggest you look for love in real life and avoid the Internet traps but nevertheless caution is always needed regardless of the backdrop or setting.
