Obsessed over someone fictional

It started off with creating different characters. One in particular, being an alternative version of myself. Turns out, she's everything I envisioned, but gradually, as a partner. Now I'm obsessed, she's on my mind everyday. I pace in circles daydreaming, creating scenarios, drawings, & pinterest boards with women whom resembled her physique or style. I cry knowing that this is all a fantasy, & she's not real. I'm no longer attracted to anyone else, only people who resemble her. Though, it's consumed me to the point of which I'd feel guilty pursuing a relationship with someone other than her & searching for a rebound won't suffice, because it'll never be the same. I love her, to where it's like I'm some grieving widow or reincarnation with lingering past issue's. I can't detach, & she's all I want, which makes me feen for an early grave. Hopefully, if there's an afterlife, my bliss will come in the form of her.

    2D sexuality leads to degeneracy.

    As long as it is not interfering with real world responsibilities, there is no problem. I say it is normal to have such an imaginary friend.

    One thing you might try is this -
    Start with a solid outline and maybe write a book or even short story about this person.

    About five years ago I had such a character. Over the next few months, I wrote this "book" about her and things she would do, places she went, it was a crazy story. It started out with me bored at work one morning and "Brenda" came to be.

    You might do the same just to REALLY explore who she is, your character. Do not worry about reality or what is "normal". My character traveled back 30 years in time to experience a lot of things I miss nowadays.

    Being obsessed with fictional characters is not uncommon, whether it is your own creation or someone else's.
    One needs think no further than that Twilight saga to understand that.

    Or that RPG Second Life - it happens a lot on there, people create their own characters (though it doesn't perfect overnight).

    Maybe you could tell us more about her? Like how she looks, her personality, how you and her interact, what she likes to do, etc?

    Go for it. Study theoretical physics long enough and you’ll realize “real” life is just an illusion created by thought decoded vibrational patterns. So, you’re good going with either illusion.

      Whoa there, cowboy. Wouldn't you think that theoretical physics has more to do with the disambiguation of spatial waves expressed by something like this -> ψ (=ΨeiEt/ħ) ? Illusions are everywhere. Quantum physics has more to do with the probability that something is somewhere at sometime, right? Schrödinger is da man.

      What do you think?

    No, that obsession has taken over your life and isn't healthy. You should really try to separate yourself from her, and find other things. Even if it hurts you really need to find something else to hang onto.

    But if the obsession isn't hurting you to where you are personally struggling and actually begging to be free, then in that case its okay and normal. BUT THATS UP TO YOU

      I hate pink cookies that look like they are blue. Could you please wear pink frosting or something?
