In love with a fictional character?

Falling in love with the fictional character? Umm go get some help, because that's just a bit over the edge. I can deal with the infatuation bit, the sex appeal that does sell some characters, but to read any more into that, you need to take a step back and make sure you've got a good grip on reality.

I know there's been some characters in movies/series that I figure, damn I wish I could meet someone that nice in real life, but that's usually the extent of it. I don't think I've ever fantasized about a fictional character, only about real people that they resemble.

That's exactly how I would have said it if I was any good with words. I don't think it's that uncommon for the personality traits of fictional characters to be desired, or loved to use such a strong word, or perhaps for physical traits to be lusted after (in a fantasy world you can find truly perfect people, especially physically...). But truly in love with a fictional person seems to be taking things a little too far.

How ya doing, buddy?
