How much is too much on Facebook?

I’m a long-time Facebook user — while Dr. Leah is new on the Facebook front.

Staying friends with someone you met online?

“I recently met this guy online and we talked for hours over coffee. He’s smart and funny. There’s just one little problem: I’m not attracted to him.”
