This "conversation" took place over smses... I called the other person no 6 because I saw a digit 6 instead of a 5 in my friend's number. Haha... lame...

No 6: Oh..U low batt liao ah..Then msg mi after u gt hm n charge ur hp.. U take care hor..

And that's the end. At least for tonight.

Now that I read everything, I think maybe I'm just overly friendly so it seems like I was interested in continuing the conversation with him. I didn't even know that he was a "him" in the first place. I was just being friendly. Serious!

This incident seems a little similar to the stranger incident that happened to me on the bus. I just didn't know when to stop being friendly.

Anyway, I was also grateful that he told me last night that I got the wrong number so in the end, I managed to message my friend. That's why I said "have a nice day" to him when he was expressed his concern in the morning. Totally didn't expect him to reply though.

So now, I don't know what to do. It would seem fun to make a friend. I don't mind making friends if I'm sure that he's not a bad person. But the thing is, I don't know.

He may not be 24 years old. And his name might not be Edwin. He might not even be a guy! (although I highly doubt so. Why would a woman want to pretend to be a guy to make friends with me?!)

I know, I know... I don't even know this guy so it might be dangerous. I know! It seems fun to make a new friend though. But I'm still sensible enough to make the right decisions and take care of myself. So don't worry!
