I am totally obsessed with ted bundy

This is going to sound strange.. But I am 100% completely obsessed with the serial killer Ted Bundy. It's not that what I think he did was right, it was totally wrong and disgusting, but for some odd reason.. I bassically think he's the man, and Im not a bad person! But I can't help it! I know absolutely everything about him, to the date and place of birth, his life story, the people he murdered, the murder weapon, the way he murdered.. I pretend I hate him, but for some reason I am totally obsessed... Should I see a therapist or something??

    Me too! I love serial killers in general. They are so mysterious and Ted Bundy was so sexy! I think that killing college girls was totally wrong (especially since I am one!) but it is so intriguing to look at his motivations behind the killings not to mention the fact that he was so intelligent and committed many killings in WA (my home state!) Washington turns out so many prolific killers- I think it is all the awful weather!

      You will never date a serial killer, stop being stupid. Most are psychopaths who can't even feel empathy or love, you would probably end up one of his victims and raped for being stupid, wake up they're all manipulative.

    Before Ted Bundy was executed back in 89, he had hundreds of letters from girls saying they were in love with him, to me it must be a sex thing, a danger thing. It all depends on the girl and her weird imagination, but I just think its based on their "turn on's" and the fact Ted ain't exactly an unattractive guy.

      My name is penni and i am 49 years old and in the 1980's i was visiting my boyfriend who was on florida's death row with ted bundy. I knew ted and i would talk with ted bundy in the visiting area on florida's death row. Ted was charming and very sexy and good looking and i had to keep reminding myself that ted's victims were all probably attracted to him and these young women had no way of knowing that ted was a serial killer. I am a white lady and i am beautiful and i have long black hair to my shoulders and ted bundy would stare at me his eyes fixated on me. Unfortunately ted chose the wrong path in life.

    I think we are all a little fascinated by the darker side of humanity (I mean, that's why shows like Criminal Minds are so popular, right?), but it is a little unusual to be so obsessed with a particular serial killer. If it really bothers you, then yes, you should see a therapist about it; if it gets in the way of your relationships and such, definitely see someone. And if you ever get the urge to commit crimes like that, seek help immediately.

    Then again, look how many books there are about Jack the Ripper or other serial killers... it's not like you're totally alone in that department.

    You know that there are women that date and marry hard core prisoners serving their sentences, right? There is a psychological issue behind that. I think you might be caught in the grip of one and that you really ought to seek help before you land yourself in a really bad situation with some sicko who will torture you and murder you. There are enough of them out there and you're the perfect bait.

    It's normal. Women are 100% insane.

    Embrace your insanity and name your dildo "ted".

    Women like power and danger - serial killers offer both.

    IMO, totally normal for women to like serial killers.

    Men wouldn't ever be attracted to female serial killers... unless they were hot.

      I think it's part of human nature to be attracted to "taboo" and "darker" things and people. And in Ted Bundy's case he was very attractive too.

      @ BigRedOne

      You're an idiot. See a teacher, you've got alot to learn... You probably don't even know who the fuck Ted Bundy is, do you? He might be a sicko but he was an interesting person.

      @ the person who asked this question, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being I quote your words "Obsessed" with Ted Bundy. I myself find him pretty interesting as a person, smart and creative, though he had different perspectives on life then a "normal" person would. You knowing about Ted Bundy's, personal life is normal, any researcher, persons learning about him or even investigating him or even have a interest on hes life would know all this and MUCH MORE. I don't think you KNOW THAT MUCH about Ted Bundy as you think. He's date of birth, time of death and what he did and got up to in hes life would be all in he's biography. Think about this, what was your source of information? How did you learn about him? Many people would have written and known A LOT more about Ted Bundy the you do for you to be able to get all this information to think your weird. Knowing about who he murdered each and everyone of hes victim would be too simple to find and I guarantee you that over 10,000 people would know how much people Ted Bundy has killed, for the murder weapons he used, well you know that because you know he's victims. :D Am I correct?

        Bitch shut up, he is a serial killer who feels empathy for nobody, he rapes and kills whoever he wants, you are an idiot for even trying to defend him, go see a therapist too, moron. Now apparently one of the biggest pieces of shit and serial killers in history was just misunderstoood, lool what a joke. If you think just because a person is smart, creative or whatever he is dating material when he has killed and raped so many you should REALLY see a therapist dumb bitch

    I think most people are obsessed with someone with a stranger personality or disorder (including serial killers). Like I'm obsessed with Adolf Hitler, it started off with just joking about him but now I just like knowing stuff about him. I don't even know anymore if it's a joke or not.

    Sure it's normal...a lot people are fascinated with serial killers. Perhaps the reason you are so obsessed with him is merely due to the kinda person he is. He is a natural psychopath and very charismatic. People were/are drawn to this man's presence and others who are just like him. In reality people should be compelled to RUN THE FUCK AWAY from the likes of him. My advice - stop yourself from being obsessed with this psychopath.

    My brother says that I am obsessed with Ted Bundy. However, I am a student and I'm studying psychiatric health and I am completely fascinated by him. Bundy was raised in a good home, and aside from discovering in his young years that he was an illegitimate child, he had a normal life. That does not mean that normal people cannot have or develop psychopathic behavior, but think about other serial killers such as Jeffrey Dahmer, or just criminals in general, there is often an early onset stressor from family etc. that caused the start of some trigger. Was Bundy intelligent? Yes. Was he attractive? Yes. And he studied psychology in school which is ironic, but he used his intelligence and charm to lure his victims. He is my hobby, along with researching things about mental illness and other criminals, simply because I want to know as much as possible about Bundy and those like him, as I plan to one day keep society as safe from those people as i possibly can. THat being said, Hybristophilia or "Bonnie and Clyde" syndrome is a mental disorder that a small handful of people have. Those who have hybristophilia find sexual or romantic desire in someone who has committed outrageous things. If you are not romantically drawn to the thought of Bundy, and there are no underlying anger issues etc. that make you sympathize with Bundy's actions, I would say you are perfectly fine. If you feel strongly about your interests in him or they persist in bothering you, then maybe you should see your doctor. :)

    I am not obsessed with Ted so much as I am fascinated by him. I would never want to meet him in a dark ally, but I would have spoken to him if he was safely behind bars. He was a very sick and purely psychopathic human being who was lacking any kind of morality or sense of right and wrong. On the other hand, he was physically beautiful with mesmerizing blue eyes. He also had charm, charisma, and supreme intelligence. That contradiction is fascinating to me, and I can see why some women would become obsessed with him. It is a very primal and powerful draw women have towards sex and violence. Many women have fantasies about being raped and domineered by a man, but there is a big difference between fantasy and real life. I do not think it is abnormal to be obsessed with him as long as it does not spill over into real life violence or becoming a victim. Regardless of how charming he may appear on the surface, he did unimaginably horrible things that no human being deserves to endure. Was he sexy? He looked sexy, but his sexual gratification came from the pain and degradation of others. I would not wish that on anyone! So ultimately, it depends on your perspective. I would say that if you are having violent fantasies about him and such thoughts are becoming beyond your control, then seek professional
    help. It is not healthy to always have Ted Bundy inside your head. Never forget what he is, and what he was capable of!

    yeah im obsessed w/ him too. its not that i agree w/ anything he did bc of course he did very wrong. but hes so hot and sexy. and also, the power and danger thing definitely plays a HUGE role in the attraction. being a girl, i am so turned on by a dangerous, powerful guy but of course, then you gotta think straight and understand that he did terrible things. a gifted person gone to waste, in a way

    I think the obsession with Ted is normal. I think if you want to be like him or romanced by him, then you're nuts. The man ruined hundreds of lives, caused so much emotional pain and loss(to his own family as well as the victims'), tortured and murdered innocent people, some he kept alive for days ,had sex with bloody, dead bodies until they were rotting (can you imagine the smells, the flies, the maggots and worms?), took heads home with him and applied make-up and used them for sex, raped, tortured and killed a 12 year old LITTLE girl and left her body in a pig pen and was a narcissistic a-hole untl the very moment he died. And these are only the things we KNOW. He confessed more things to Bob Keppel that were so gruesome Keppel said he would never speak of them and would take them to his grave. Sooo...I think fascination about how someone so gifted could be so insane is normal, but be realistic when you think of him. He was a cold, cruel, extremely sick human being.

    Oh my god. Is it usual? Yes. It is normal? No. You wouldn't believe how many girls are obsessed with Ted Bundy. Yes, he was handsome and charming, and if you met him, he would probably murder you too.It's not a good thing to be obsessed with serial killers. It's not good psychologically or emotionally. By having an obsession for him you will subconsciously try to find men that have his characteristics, which will probably get you killed.

    I feel the same way about Ed Gein and Jeffery Dahmer. Ok I wouldn't call it an obsession but I just find them fasinating serial killers.
    True what they did was wrong and twisted but there is just something that is just cool.

    EEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!! OOOOPS, I'm so sorry, was tired and just assumed you were a woman. Well, maybe serial killers and the way the operate fascinates you? Could be the psychology side of it, or maybe you have repressed anger and identify with him? I don't know hey, I find serial killers extremely interesting, and Ted Bundy was certainly an interesting case because he was so well liked. Still, perhaps you should sit down and give this some thought as to why you are so obsessed with him. Whatever you do, don't imitate the dude...
