(I did not know how old she was - I assumed she was older as she looks much older)Now I feel really weird - I dont know what to do or if I would get into trouble for talking to her. I am NOT / NEVER interested in her in a romantic way at ALL. It was just a friend to speak to about fashion and music. Also she lives in another country all together.I do not know what to do. If I carry on speaking to her (on a platonic level of course!) would I get into trouble with the law? Or should I just stop speaking to her altogether now? It feels wrong so not sure if it is if I carried on chatting to her?Thanks

There is no law that dictates who you are or are not allowed to talk to. However, if the talking has been sexually suggestive then it's a whole different matter indeed...

I'd still watch what I type, though, just in case.
