It is noble of you to want to give people the benefit of the doubt, but unfortunately there are very evil, conniving people out there.

These people target anyone who is naive and willing to give them a chance to be friends. They have nothing but time on their hands to be nice to you, have benign conversations , all the while keeping notes on everything you say, reading your other posts, finding clues as to where you live or go to school.

Please be careful and find a safer way to make friends. Have you spoken to your parents about being on Reddit? I am guessing they too would be concerned It is a scary world out there.
