“THE CON WOMAN”

Four and a half years ago, I received a friend request on Facebook. Normally, I don’t accept these from strangers. This woman shared 54 mutual friends and most of them not your traditional friend hoarder types. I accepted, and over the course of several months we would chat at night with no mention or plan to ever meet. Just passing the time & joking around.

Four or five months in, she messaged me just before 10PM midweek.

MARY: Hey. I’m in your neighborhood. Want to meet for a drink?
