I would be treading carefully bro. I have a few WL friends and once you know them, it really opens the doors to what the industry is really like if that makes sense. It's really tricky because its hard to know if they are really there to be friends or if they want your money in the long term. One of my WL friends is great because she doesnt send regular messages like "hi baby you coming tonight to see me ?" only when shes working. Others might be like "hey how you going or hows your day been" as an example.
So yeah, just tread careful but don't get too involved with them because it can open a shitload of problems if you are not careful.
