i really like a fictional character so much it hurts and i have this friend who i make stories with with that character and she’s the only one who likes him as much, probably more than me. i don’t want to be that way.

    Is this adoration of a character negatively impacting your life in some way? Does it prevent you from being productive or taking take of yourself? Does it detract from social activities? Is it causing you financial strain?

      If it’s not now, it will in the future.

      If someone is asking strangers for help to stop a behavior, you should believe that the behavior is an issue.

      Would you ask this if the question was about alcohol?
