Is it normal to be in love with a dead person?

So, I started loving... Let´s name him Paul since last year, but now the feelings that I have for him are stronger than ever. Even though I know that this relationship will never work, since he's dead; I still care for him too much; and sometimes I even have the feeling that he's alive. Also, he is someone that I never met. He's not a celebrity neither, but he is kinda known for his acts. I started thinking that it had to be admiration towards him, because I found it really weird to be love. But last month, I discovered that it had to be something... Bigger, you know? My feelings for him are stronger than ever, as I stated previously, and I'm pretty self-concerned for this. I can´t love any other person, because I think that I'll never find someone better than him. Please, someone let me know if this is just a normal phase; or if I'm mentally ill.

    Millions of women around the world still love singer Elvis Presley and he's been dead since the seventies.

    If it's a deceased celebrity, I think it's ok to love them, like if you're watching one of their movies and you really love them while seeing them on screen. I know someone who is still in love with Frank Sinatra and watches videos of his films and videos of some of his concerts. And I love a deceased celebrity too and watch her films, Ginger Rogers, she was very beautiful, and charming, and a great graceful dancer. If it's someone deceased who wasn't famous, it's still ok to love them too if you knew them. But if you didn't know them and they weren't famous, I'm not so sure about that

    i used to be in love with michael jackson when i was 9-12. he died when i was 9. i would pretend we were together lmao

    i think it’s a normal thing for kids to do when the have an active imagination. some kids have imaginary boyfriends, others have imaginary pretend alive boyfriends. lol three years of my childhood i was dating michael jackson. you’ll grow out of once you get a real boyfriend.

        lol yeah i was pretty much obsessed with him. and i promise getting a boyfriend is not as hard as you think. what’s hard is finding a GOOD boyfriend. but you will find one eventually. you’re too young to be thinking about that right now but i understand you. i was your age once. it should go away with time :)

    Its not normal but not mentally ill. You havent really met the guy and I suggest moving on and stop thinking about it.

      I know what you're trying to say, but it's not that easy; it's really difficult.

    How old are you?
    If it was someone you used to know and your still in love even though hes dead it would be more normal-ish...
