Is it normal for me to love a stuffed animal more than humans?

I got my stuffed animal 17 years ago. I am 23 years old now. I still treat him the way I did when I first got him, except I don't take him every where I go. I still kiss him, I still talk to him, I still look at him like he is my baby, & I still feel flutters inside of me and I can't help but to smile when I look at him. If my house was set on fire, I would grab him before I grabbed my more expensive things, like my laptop, and ipod. If I had to choose between never seeing him again or never seeing a family member again, I would choose to keep him in my life. So yeah, I love him more than humans. Is this normal?

    Yes, well, in my opinion. Im still the exact way! When I was about five, I got this stuffed animal for Valentines day, and tothis day I still sleep with it, and pretty positive that when I get married, shes going to be sleeping with me! I talk to her, and believe she has a heart of her own, sometimes I even think she comes to life when I'm gone, like off of Toy Story. But yes, in my opinion, its normal. Only because I do it myself.

    I think you're going too far with the house-fire thing; I'd rather want my family member to be alive...but aside from that subject, it's normal and I also talk to my stuffed animals and my friends tease me about it lol xD
    I have about 15 stuffed animals on one big shelf, and I do this cycle thing for sleeping with each of them for 3 nights each. Then I keep switching them to sleep with for 3 nights in the same order. I feel like they're all alive but they can't talk to me so I want to spend time with them :)
