Is it normal to worry about this?

hey everybody. i have a question that might be kind of a stupid question. but i need to ask.

If a 20 year old is attracted to a fictional child who is played by an adult, does that count as pedophilia?????????

This is really stressing me out because there is a character who I might be attracted to and she is a minor. But the actress who plays her is/was the same age as me, so maybe I am worried about nothing???

Idk man. I have a lot of problems. The last thing I need is to be a pedo.

Maybe I am worried about nothing. Maybe it's just my anxiety making me worried about stupid stuff. Sometimes I can't tell.

Btw don't tell me to get therapy for my anxiety. I am already seeing a therapist.

    Eve the alien, or the pink haired one off Lazytown? I was rather relieved to find both those are played by 20 year olds!

    You're sort of on your way there, but you're not a pedophile. This experience shows that you can potentially be attracted to a girl that is actually too young. But that fact that you're worried shows that you can keep a level head about these things.

    Attraction isn't something that can be controlled, so there's no sense worrying about it. Your actions however, can. So make sure you can, and there's no need to worry.

    • What do you mean "You're sort of on your way there"????

      Yikes!

      "But that fact that you're worried shows that you can keep a level head about these things."
      Ok well I don't want to be a pedophile.

      I really wish they would stop having hot girls around my age playing KIDS on tv. It makes things very confusing.
