I have posted here before but it's been a while.
I created a fake persona years ago to chat on a website. It was created strictly for this place...name, email, picture are all not actually mine.
I started talking with someone outside of this site 18 months ago. 18 months later he professes his love for me. He was kicked out of med school partly because of depression, partly because of me. He's living with his parents. There has been no profit..we've exchanged small gifts over the years and more of them have been sent on my end than his.
I do feel for him...or something that feels like it. i don't know. When he's upset with me I cry. When he says something hurtful I cry.
Anyway, he's getting a really good job starting Monday. He's moving on with his life. It would be natural for me to "die" in this scenario considering how sick I am....but I really just want to come clean...tell him as much as I can without giving my real identity away.
How much criminally or civilly am i libel for? He's in Utah now and I'm in Florida.
