So I have found myself in a bit of a weird situation recently.
I had a friend request come through to me on one of the social media platforms out there, and although as yet I have not accepted it, we have been messaging each other for the past couple of weeks.
Normally I would of just ignored it as I didn't recognize them, but they caught me at a low point so I sent them a message asking how they know me. My account is pretty well locked down to friends only and there are no public photos of me anywhere on there. In our conversations in turns out that they saw a video I shared way back in 2018 which for some reason was set to public, the video wasn't of me, so they decided to add me as a friend.
Anyway, the problem is that although I am enjoying the conversation that I have been having with them, (as said, they caught me at a low point, I was feeling lonely, I had a lot on my mind, my father was in hospital and my mother is in ill heath too) I am 99.9% sure that they are not who they say they are, but the remaining 0.1% is hopeful that they are and is what is keeping me messaging them.
So has anyone else found themselves in a similar situation, where you know that something isn't right, but in a weird way it's warm, it's cozy, it's comforting, so you carry on with it, knowing that sooner or later it's going to have to come to an end?
