<human>: So I've met this wonderful woman online through a MOBA video game and we've hit it off ever since that fateful day 1.5 years ago. Eventually we grew feelings for each other and tried dating, but the distance was an issue and we both had unresolved issues outside of our relationship with each other.

 

    We've recently reconnected and have begun to grow feelings for one another, this time uninhibited by our unresolved issues. Within our group of friends online, I'm the only one she doesn't call by my real name (as you know, you create a username in most online games or settings, such as reddit).

 

    So, one day when she was referring to me and another guy, she uses my online alias and his real name. So I kinda poked fun at her about it and she messages me that "using your real name is too intimate". So I have no clue what this means, can anyone help?

Summarize the given text in a few sentences.
<bot>: My online friend who I have feelings for doesn't use my real name, but instead my online alias, when talking about me/to me because it's "too intimate". What does this mean?
