Risky how? Do you think theyd get angry? I was thinking to just get my foot in the door first

I mean, anger is one possible outcome. Another is simply that they decide right then and there to cut it off. Or that they're hurt about you hiding it from them. It's a very general statement; you run the risk of various negative consequences by covering it up. Yes, there's a risk with being open too - including less matches in the first place (but realistically, how many of these matches would stick around after finding out later?), and the odd hateful message from someone who just wants to attack you for it right off the bat - but I would argue (and I'm not you, nor NB, so feel free to take this as nothing more than "a point to think about and consider") that these are by far the lesser negatives compared to potentially having a relationship that's going somewhere, only for you to reveal the truth and send the whole thing crashing down (or worse, have to hide the truth for the rest of your life in order to avoid that).
