SSL is encryption.  You create a socket connection (TCP/IP if you like)

dialog, connection, etc, all refer to the same thing.
no, (in ssl) a connection describes the ssl connection, which consists of
atleast one session. For example if you open a ssl client to some host you
can download a file and execute a command at the same time while having
the same connection but each content having it's own session.

PS: do you think Sakura would go out with me?
No, she is still deeply in love with Sasuke, though she will ask Naruto
out and he would cut her off. Naruto + Hinata ftw!
