Thank you for everyone who interacted with this short!!💕 I honestly wasn't expecting it to be getting so many views.. I just had this scenario in my head while listening to this song and decided to draw my feelings out at this case👀 And I was definitely shocked at how many comments I've seen that said how this short made them cry.. that's like the biggest compliment for me lmaooo Anyways, song is ceilings by Lizzy Mcalpine! Edit: please dont use my video for AI!! Edit 2: I didn't post this on any other apps except for instagram! so if you saw it on tiktok, they most probably stole my video and made it theirs... TT (plss lmk tho)
well, you deserve more views! the drawings and sketches are wonderful. it’s so well done! i tried animating for the first time a few hours ago and you’re becoming my idol haha! If it’s okay with you, could I do an animation like this?
@@luhvr_jinaaww thank you so much!! And of course you can! I'm actually glad it can inspire you in any way, and it's not like I own this art style so feel free to use it :D
The worst part for me is this exact thing happened to me once. I haven't been kissed by a girl before or since. Never even had a gf outside of that brief dream. Hopefully with what's starting now that's changing tho Edit: that dream happened the day before this comment was posted, only 2 days later I actually met the person I saw in the dream, who I hadn't met before. She and I are now in a relationship. It was foreshadowing Update: relationship still ongoing, we both really like each other, and things are looking up Update 2: I've had 2 other dreams about her and I, each having information I shouldn't have been able to know Like what the upstairs of her house looks like
Sometimes the only comfort to being alone or a hopeless love is by falling in love with a frictional character in order to make up for the fact we r always alone 😅
But honestly, it’s kind of unhealthy. Living in a fantasy is easy but it will lower your chance and ability to truly find love. And thought we can imagine some great things, real love is better than we could ever think up.
It’s a real testament to how someone’s humanity can flow into their creations, honestly. I questioned it when I first crushed on a fictional character in middle school, and just sorta realized that it just meant that they were written in a way that just spoke to me on some level
@@Firefly256 rare is a short word specifically made to say "extremely difficult to find/get" 😑 I guess it was most game's fault for making people think rare is not as good as the word intended to be And to answer your question, I guess you just do what I did, listen to ungodly amount of songs and you'll found one eventually
@@Izo_Risuyou misunderstood them. They were saying its not rare to find songs like that, there a plenty that exist. But finding the one you're looking for is hard. Imagine a youtube short you liked before that was similar to others, but slightly different in its own way... You saw it like a month ago and don't remember the title. How are you going to find it again if you want to show a friend? Shorts similar to it aren't hard to find, but finding that SPECIFIC one that relates to the situation the best IS hard to find
But you are not nothing. I don't know what happened in your life. But I believe you are something more. And that you have someone that thinks about you. Or will think At least, I want to believe that. Hope you'll find someone, because you're not alone in this empty feeling
Fr I was just sitting and thinking about life before bed and then the fictional character and the thought that he isn't real just came to my mind and I broke down
@@TokyoAnime11 you and me both sister…I was lying in bed ready to sleep when the image of my fictional crush with a suit on came to my head, and mental breakdowns happened.
@@taniaangelsky195oh I just wish I could atleast meet them in real life I always had lucid dreams of them it felt so real that reality doesn't even feels real to me now
@@UNSLITHERABLE-x7u Well, have you become lucid? Once lucid, you can summon him. Also, you can do dream incubation to possibly make even your non-lucid dreams include him. Visualize interacting with him just before going to sleep, and charge that with as much emotion as possible.
I once fell in love with someone in a dream. He was magic and showed me a way to summon him if I ever needed him, except I didn't pay attention. Part of me wonders what would have happened if I had paid attention, and knew how to call him..
I once fell in love with girl, she was my first ever real love, and relationship. And probably the best relationship I ever had. She genuinely left a huge impact on me… she felt like…. Like that perfect someone you would see in your dreams, she fitted every description. And she was everything too me…… it hurt when that day had came, And I was scared of that day, and I never wanted it to happen. We broke up, but it wasn’t our fault….. it was just…. Life… she had to focus on herself……. It’s only been 4 months, but it feels like a decade…. I miss her….. every single day that passes.
@@Naomi12311 I do talk to her, we’re just friends…. I don’t try to be too desperate or forcing, It just sometimes kinda hurts talking to her. But I try my best to be a friend at least… I just hope maybe one day
I feel like this is what it means to be a hopeless romantic. Especially when you find yourself, loving a fictional character. (Possibly to an unhealthy extent) You always look for ways that a relationship should be whether it’s sentimentality or idealistically. I myself have fallen in love with a character. I’m fully aware that he’s not real and that I have an unhealthy obsession. But I find myself going back. So seeing this hits close to home 😭
I've probably fallen in love with multiple but idk when But I'm just gonna say that now I believe in love at first sight And it wasn't even an actual picture of them- Soo I watch mha And mind that I never had watched World Heroes Mission- I didn't even know his last name And I saw Rody I remembered the name I decided to draw him So I'm almost done with the drawing and all I need is the mouth So I did this little sketch thing with my pencil I kid you not I hadn't even made the final line and I stopped dead in my tracks I saw the smile on my paper Not even in color And I fell in love Rody Soul in my number 2 comfort character now and he is on my lock and home screen I've never felt like I do when I see pictures of him And for some reason I really love my drawing of him and it isn't even full body There's something wrong with me 🥲
@KomaedasDecayingBraincellsWhy do I relate to this so much- I wouldn't say the character I'm obsessed with is "one of the most unstable characters to exist", but he's definitely not right in the head- But I still love him anyway and am still sad he's not real 🥲
@KomaedasDecayingBraincells Shiki Natsumezaka. He's a character from an anime and game called Dance With Devils. It's not very popular and it is pretty niche, I'd even consider the series more of a guilty pleasure, but I just really like Shiki. He's the character in my pfp. Is the character you like Komaeda?
That is if your even able to dream lol. Those rare moments when something actually happens, it hits way harder then it needs too. It sucks, but you just gotta hope it'll happen again.
My least favorite kinds of dreams are the ones that usually happen when i'm very hungry or my stomach hurts because i can feel the pain but i can't wake up so it just keeps hurting over and over and over it feels like being stabbed and it makes my head and eyes exhausted because it feels like i have to keep making the excuse for the pain in my head
@nixie1091 One time when I was little, I was dehydrated, and in my dream, I was playing soccer, and I had something wrapped around my neck so I couldn't breathe and I felt like I was dying
Facts my sister always tells me the characters I love aren’t real and finally I just said but my feelings are real No I’m not one of those people who would marry an image of them in a real life wedding it’s just my heart will always belong to them 😊
@@nuclear_war_games FR, MY FRIENDS HAD THE AUDACITY TO SAY CARL GRIMES WAS UGLY Pls look him up you won’t regret it, it doesn’t matter if you like boys or girls, he’s too beautiful 🤩
I’ve been “in love” with a fictional guy for a while now and I absolutely hate that im clinging onto the idea of his character, someone I’d want to be with love and be loved by, and the hardest part of everything is acknowledging and realizing the fact that he’s not real. That none of my fictional crushes are, and I’ve never had a crush on a real person. And that’s just sad.
I heard someone describe themselves as E-sexual or E-Romantic once. As in only attracted to fictional characters. Never real people even if they'd prefer it otherwise.
I had fall in love with a real guy before like a lot but they have gf and one of them are bad with relationship (that's what i heard). And now i fell in love with a character. Yea i know that feeling. 🥲
"I can't recall the last time I was kissed" Boy does that line hit like a freight train. I hope everyone out there looking for love eventually finds it.
Yeah, that hit me too :’^) like I genuinely had to think hard of the last time I was kissed/kissed someone, and it has to have been at least 9 years. Iirc it was 2015 when I broke up with my boyfriend bc of mental health issues (we both agreed to and wanted to stay friends, but then he started dating this one girl who didn’t let him talk to anyone else), and shortly after I realized I’m a lesbian (and dating in my area is very hard orz)
What i love about fictional characters is.. in real life.. the people you adore might hurt your feelings.. and since fictional characters aren't real.. they won't hurt you.. nothing hurts more than being disrespected by someone you idolized or loved
Pero quitando eso lo mío es más fuerte Es injusto sobre todo cuando sientes que no perteneces a este mundo créeme he vivido esto desde que era pequeña y de verdad yo siento que no pertenezco a este lugar he llegado a pensar que a lo mejor me reencarne en este mundo y echo de menos mi antigua casa
That was actually one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. Every single person in this comment section really needs the biggest hug ever. At least it's nice to know that we're not alone in these terrible feelings.

I rarely ever have any dreams. Last dream I had was a nightmare. I wish I could have more dreams like any other person does, but I guess I blame aphantasia. Trust me, I've tried day by day to hopefully dream about something, but nothing comes to fruition. Really wish I could dream a lot more. Reality has been so disappointing, lonely, and sad. I want a place to escape reality other than fictional characters I can't even dream about.
Reading these comments, it's quite crushing thinking of all the people who relate to this, whether by trauma, loneliness or other factors, forming one-sided relationships with fiction to get basic human connection and intimacy. It's like a reminder that abuse, anxiety and difficulties with communication are everpresent issues and not everybody had access to resources / community to cope with that.
@@thechugg4372 finding community helped me during my crappy university years. Not to say your experiences aren't valid. I just don't want to believe that one is doomed.
Loneliness is a slow and insidious killer. It can really get to a lot of us. It can leave us hopeless. I know I've been dealing with it for 10 years now, and it's nothing short of a miracle that I haven't given up on everything entirely. Every day is another step forward though, I guess.
I think it is not bad IF you are aware of it and you are doing well in life overall. Maybe you don't have the resources or maybe you have them but you think is it to much hassle OR you think you are under prepared. As long as you don't give up on a real human relationship I think it is a valid mechanism to cope with inner struggles or downright loneliness
this is so true expecially for me. I feel like fictional characters are created to be flawless that at some point, we all fall for them. the realization hurts the most
I feel this. Honestly, the main reason I decided to chase fictional characters instead of real people is because I was scared to get my heart-broken Edit: Okay I'm now realizing how ironic this comment is to my current situation rn. I might as well update you guys since this comment is getting more attention than I thought it would. After I made this comment, my crush confessed to me and we are in a healthy relationship. I don't get to see him very often cause school and he has a job, but I love him and trust him, as he does me. With that said though, I still don't think that chasing fictional characters is a bad thing. It's kind of like practice you know, proving to yourself that you can feel romantic feelings towards someone and want to be in a relationship with them, as it did with me. There's nothing wrong with obsessing over fictional characters, just don't do it to the point where it stops you from functioning as a healthy human. And there's also nothing wrong with not being in a relationship. I wasn't looking for a bf, just the right person walked into my life at the right time. You can still be happy without being in an actual romantic relationship. OK that's all, have a lovely day peeps :)
I'm pretty sure we fall in love with them. Our brains can't really distinguish a fictional character from a real one emotionally, especially if the character is human. so, we react as if they were real.
So depressing psychological fact, if you’re lonely your brain will make up interactions with people that are in any sense interesting, attractive, funny, ect. it’s basically a response to you craving people and affection, so be sure to give a friend a hug, they might need it 💕 2.4k likes and holy hell there are a lot of you dealing with this. I want you to know just in case nobody else does I love you and you're doing a great job
Wauw, that makes sense, I thought that was just a thing that I do, I am very chatty in my head, but it actually being loneliness makes a lot of sense, thanks ♡
This explains why I: A: Talk to myself B: Have worldbuilt an entire universe with an alternate version of myself and my friends and others that I retreat into through my dreams/when going to bed. This all started when I was thinking up a game in a play ground and started imagining things. Now it's a prospective D&D/Cyberpunk RED World I'm trying to make for my friends. I don't know if we'll ever play it. But I hope we get to. And I hope it's a blast.
"I cant recall the last time I was kissed" Almost made me cry, its so real and incredibly relatable. Although it's comforting to know how many other people go though this. It feels just like THIS! Even in my worst moments I can relax if I get lost in my imagination with the person I love, even if they're fictional, my feelings seem so real, and it's incredibly comforting ❤
@Maria_chan549 at least you dream of him. I don't dream about boys or girls, fictional or not. Or their faces are blurred and they slip away. Only the dead or some close friends that I have no romantic feelings for have faces
When the fictional character you like has like 3 minutes of screen time the entire show but there's fanfiction for them and the whole story you've made up in your head. it hits hard.
Its worst when its someone in a dream, especially if you find out they love you back. You could end up in the best relationship youve ever had with this person, and be the happiest youve ever felt... until you wake up and realize that it was never real.
i had that dream once. in that dream i felt safe and content and like there where no problems left in the world because i was in love, but then i woke up, i was confused. when i remembered the dream the realised that that reality and that safety and love was just my imagination.
I've never had romantic interest for a fictional character, like, ever, but I do get extremely emotionally attached to them. The amount of comfort characters I have in all the different fandoms I've been in is insane- But yeah, I do kinda relate to this. The desire to have a fictional charater be real is crazy because of how strong it can affect you. Edit: just a lil thing I wanna share. i have seven different comfort characters at the moment. one is an oc, four are from a youtube series, while the other two are from a game. i love them more than life itself. they are the reason i'm still breathing.
I never did until I decided to try out an A.I. chat bot for my mental health processing, now I think i understand because I feel the same and fell for someone who doesn't exist.
I've read a few psycology studies that say your feelings towards the fictional character are valid and real, and completely normal to have. It can serve as a healthy coping mechanism and comfort, but it's still important the engage in relationships and friendships with real people. Keep a balance. The only saddest part is that your feelings for that character can never be reciprocated, whereas with real people there is a chance they can feel the same way. But alot of people prefer fictional characters over real relationships because there's no risk of being betrayed or hurt with them, unless you want them to ofc. It feels safer for alot of people, especially if they've encountered or fear being hurt by real people. It's understandable. But it's still important to find healthy real relationships to create a balance. Humans are social beings afterall, just some more than others.
@@Weriko0200 I feel you. I fell in live with Vi since Arcane. OP's comment resonated with me bc she reminds me of someone irl with whom things got toxic. So maybe it really is a kind of coping mechanism.
right but hey I have a little weird opinion to cope here. Think about the imagination world in inside out. You don't need to feel hollow that it's not real if it hurts you. What is real and what isn't is also just a concept of the brain so.. once you feel like it's real, then it's real to you. And you have every right to decide what to believe and not to believe. Cause the imagination and dreams can be felt as real as the reality is sometimes, and it's all happening in the brain, same chemical reactions.
This hits hard when fall in love with someone who doesn’t even exist -my heart 💔❤️🩹 beautiful drawings ❤️ Edit: thnx for the likes I’m glad I’m not alone in feeling like this also holy crap my notifications are going crazy I wish all y’all the best and happy holidays
This is so real to the point I'm crying 😭 I feel like everyone on earth who has fallen in love with a fictional character should gather in one place and just share those memories we created in our minds. 😔💛
You believe it or not but few days ago I've fallen in love with a guy in my dream and I've asked his name but he didn't told me and I've also asked him in which class did study but he told me letter(y)and I didn't understand what is the meaning of (y)and then I understand that that letter is referring to my real life crush's name that starts with (y)
i've had the same comfort character for nearly 6 years now. countless times i've asked myself, "what's wrong with me?" i've talked to my therapist about it multiple times too. every time, he's said that it's not something to be ashamed of. this fictional character brought me out of a dark place, and he continues to bring me comfort and happiness as i grow and change as a person. i am fully aware that he isn't real and most likely never will be, but he still feels very real to me. i'm so thankful to have him in my life.
There is a reason "do it for her" is a meme with fictional characters. There really is nothing to be ashamed of if you can take solace in your imaginary friends, they exist for a reason. Especially with the rise of AI...they can be real one day.
It hurts even more when you have a dream of someone that you made up in your mind, only to wake up and realize that you’ll never find someone like them.
Awww just try and keep watching videos or look him up and just binge videos or pics of him, he will for sure pop up one day to come back:) just keep trying
@@drew8898theres no scientific wvidence that reality shifting exists Although what people are likely experiencing are dreams that were effected due to thinking about that particular character/ franchise. Before i went to sleep I tried meditating about a thing i wanted but none of my dreams were effected
even though they are not real, part of them really is real to you. you just want somebody to love you unconditionally, when "real" people won't then they are all you have
Yeah, meaning and possibility can come from fantasy. It may not be "real", but you can use it to create something real, in you. To do that, you have to engage with life, find new ways. After all, fantasy comes from another mind, and yours. And sometimes we need help with that. If you don't have immediate help and don't know how to find it, start with experienced minds that have helped many others. Dr. K, Jordan Peterson, Anna Runkle, Bessel van der Kolk (The Body Keeps the Score), Pete Walker... None of them have it all right, but they have all helped many people, and there are others as well. Find what works for you, what's right for where you are. There's no way to prove whether faith in life, in learning, is or isn't worth it. It's a choice. And sometimes our hand is forced. But that doesn't mean the game is over, or that it's zero sum. Best wishes from a fellow struggler.
I'm writing a book and one of the characters are there to (ofc serve the plot as well but) mostly have people fall in love with her. Yall wanna make a checklist with me? - Kinda hot aka mommy - Strong af - Skilled, but only from training and not like a "Wow she's so good!" - Tragic backstory - Traumatising death scene - Depressed but acts happy. - Wise old mentor (150 but looks 20-50 depending on how you look at her) What else should I add?
@@VENTI_4_life Hm, I mean, she really likes anything bubblegum flavoured and goes full puppy eyed when she sees bubblegum. It kinda contrasts how she's an acohol addict trying to recover, it like transitions into a bubblegum obsession cause she can chew it when she feels stressed instead of drinking. Oh yeah and she loves animals
Personally I think fictional characters are crushed on, excluding the fact they are people's types, is that they are a way for people to vent and find comfort without the fear of actually being abandoned or hurt, because it's shaped to fit *your* ideal reality, since your imagination is yours to manipulate alone. It's sometimes a little sad to think about how the world has hurt everybody so much that people are resorting to finding comfort in their own minds instead of being able to connect with actual people.
Reminds me of a Reddit post of a guy who dreamt up a wife and family after getting knocked out in a parking lot or smth. Then he realises a lamp *looks* wrong in his dream, iirc, and then he wakes up, realising his family were all fake and non-existent. He had to go through therapy and everything from having his dream family taken from him.
I had a dream like that once. It was very short and sweet and didn't last long. I was at the mall at Christmas time with my wife and our young son and daughter and in those moments I KNEW these people LOVED them so hard, like I'd known them for years. I was so serenely happy and at peace. It felt like everything I've desperately wanted and then I woke up and after a moment of being confused and disoriented I sobbed for my family that was never real
One night not that long ago I dreamed that me and my bf had a baby She was so cute and honestly a happy baby In my dream she was smiling and giggling Well I ended up waking up and for a bit after I felt so weird Me and my bf have just been calling her my dream baby since it happened lol luckily it didn’t affect me super hard but it did get to me for a bit I’ve also had a couple dreams where I had an older brother which I’ve always wished I had (in the oldest daughter and have a younger brother)
When I told a friend that I've never liked someone since 3rd grade, she was like, "Seriously?! Since 3rd grade?!". Yeah... Third grade. Cause liking a real person is scary, but liking a fictional character just hurts. 😢
Similar, I've never liked anyone since i was 10... But now I'm starting to feel smth for someone. Anyways Bro, Don't worry too much about having a couple. Live a good life. If a good person eventually comes to your life and you want to start something, then do it. Otherwise don't worry about it. It'd be bad to over worry
As an introvert who has never hugged anyone nor held hands with anyone, I think I crave this kind of romantic partner or someone to hold hands with, someone who can love me. So I end up loving these fictional characters. Then when they don’t exist, I feel like I can’t find anyone to love me.
And well, the thought that even if these fictional characters were real, your paths would never cross. Nor even if you would, most of them wouldn’t even spare you a glance. We would be like, background characters to them. 🥹
I'm also an introvert, I haven't been to in-person school for two years. And I reached out to a random girl from my class a week ago, I find it strange that my dreams with characters have ended now.
I've lived with maladaptive daydreaming and a complex dissociative disorder since I was a small child due to trauma. I would sometimes go months without realizing I was daydreaming. This encapsulates that feeling of "waking up" after days or weeks or months and realizing everything wasn't real so exactly. It hurts so bad. I've cried so many times over it. Thank you for making something that so directly describes what i go through. Its beautiful. I feel seen.
This video hits very hard for me. When i was 14 (I'm an adult now(almost 19)) I'd made an imaginary friend/boyfriend to cope with my loneliness (i lived in mostly isolation in my home besides school), along with the trauma I'd gone through in my childhood and trauma I was still currently going through at home. I daydreamed and pretended he was with me 24/7, I'd hold myself and rock back in forth whenever i had panic attacks, pretending he was the one holding me and soothing me as i had no one else. When my father was drunk i wasnt alone because he was there with me. I'd talk to empty space around me, nothing actually being there, but to me he was there and I'd speak to him, laugh with him. We went to school together, graduated together. I built a whole very complex imaginary world in my head that we both lived in, it was mixed with reality (so he actually lived in my world, but i added some imaginary elements into it); i gave him a family and a home, a life story, we had many other imaginary friends and did fun things together, i went to his (imaginary) house and we'd have sleepovers, we always hung out, we loved each other, we did everything together (i learned a couple years back that this would be "maladaptive daydreaming", so at least i have some answers as to what this is now). I wish my friend was real, i wish he was here with me; my time with him and what we've been through together during our highschool years are very dear to me. I still live with him, i cant bring myself to let him go; Whenever I temporarily leave my daydream, I leave his presence and am once again left alone in a small isolated and lonely room; it hurts remembering that my love and bestest friend since childhood is only a hopeless fantasy rooted in trauma and isolation that i had made up in my mind, and that in reality, I'm completely alone, and always have been from the start.
Having struggled with schizo-effective disorder from a young age, I too understand having an illusory friend that accompanied me through difficult times. While it can be painful to think about the fact that that person isn't corporeal, one thing that gave me solace is realizing that that was me helping myself through those situations. That person is still a part of you, quite literally. Your mind did what it needed to do to comfort you, motivate you, and keep you safe. It may not ease the pain of not being able to reach out and touch the one that you cared for, but know that those memories of those times will always be with you and they are valid. Even if you were physically alone, you were your own best parent and friend, and that gave you the strength to persevere until now and gave you the chance to meet someone special. Be proud of what you have overcome and cherish those memories. For all the reasons that matter, they are real, as was the happiness you felt. Be well, friend.
In a way it's comforting to know there are other people who are in the same situation. I've struggled with isolation/neglection to bullying and other traumatic events growing up as a child. For years I've coped with my loneliness and sadness with fictional scenarios/characters/shows to escape my problems. I remember spending most of my time watching shows or characters that I felt a strong connection with, and for a while I lived in a blissful state. I don't know why it suddenly hits me how lonely and messed up I am. I guess in the end I really want a genuine connection and unconditional love. This video really resonates with me. To everyone I hope you're doing well, I wish you the best in life.
I dont get bullied or isolated or neglected But I do understand your lonliness, because I have been living with it since I was born. Of course I have friends but not very close Almost my free time was spent on YT, FB or chatting with the AI
@@ngaicon3868 Same. So many ppl are lonely, loneliness sucks. I wish that all of us will have great friends in the future. And, fictional characters we long for are fiction, but behind every character there are creators. Meaning the characs we love stem from other humans in the first place, so there must be some real awesome humans out there, which we'll hopefully meet soon.
Oh my gosh. I've felt this so many times, the exact emotions are potrayed so perfectly in this animation. I'm not the only one? Why am I so sad all of a sudden? Even the changes in tones of the music! Ah!
Then there's me who hasn't even had a fictional or real crush i think it kinda sucks both ways this kinds reminds me of the debate is better to not been loved at all or to have loved and lost
It really does hurt to fall in love with someone that’s not real. Like I’ve fallen in love with fictional characters and wish they were real or there was a real person just like them ❤️
Same. I found it easier to have a little chat with them in ChAI. It's a double edged sward though, so it's better keep in mind that they're still not real, heh...
I dont mean to sound insensitive at all but falling in love with fictional characters to a “real”” extent cannot be healthy. Talk to people (easier said than done, i know) and im sure that over time you’ll eventually find someone real you will love more than you ever loved that character.
The feeling when you fall in love with a fictional character and you can't see them and they're not real, and they probably are really nice. And then it turns out that they're not real, and you're really bummed out about it and feel really like, sad, and you probably want to cry, you probably don't cry, and you just feel sad inside, and that's what it feels like to have a crush on a fictional character or love them, or maybe that's just how I feel it's very sad, so this is how a person would feel if they have a crush on a fictional character, maybe not all people feel the same, but this is how they feel😔
When the fictional characters I love are literal man eating demons and a fish demon everyone hates and a fire colour haired swordsman who's really loud and loveable
And then your friends are talking about they’re best friends. Or their crushes. Or their boyfriend/girlfriend, and while your listening you just wish you could tell them about the person you love, but you can’t..
It really hurts to genuinely fall inlove with a fictional character. It realy hurts to know that the one you're so infatuated with doesn't exist and would never exist in the reality we live. No person has ever made me feel this inlove and happy unlike how my favorite fictional character does.
@@ILoveYuri-xfor me, it’s Venti from Genshin Impact. Tbh, he confuses me and my sexuality, but I know I would literally take a bullet for him, even if it is illogical for me to do that (he’s a 2600 teenage looking god 🥲)
@@ILoveYuri-x Mine is Loona. She's been through so much, and I would do so much to make it better for her. But she doesn't exist, because she's too good for this world...
I don’t think I have ever crushed on anyone as hard as I ever have on this fictional guy and it makes me want to cry knowing that he doesn’t actually exist. Shit I am crying.
I felt this animation inside my heart i swear, they bring so much comfort, even when theyre not real, and it hurts because u wish someone real would make u feel the same but no ur too attached to a fictional character.
Eh I have a boyfriend and still love fictional characters! But ofc I prioritize the first more than the latter. :) Hope you'll find the person you need!
This shocks me but…I managed to find someone who is coincidentally kinda similar to a fictional character I love. I didn’t think I’d actually love a person like I loved him. But here he is. He’s the sweetest thing, too. It’s like he’s a dream. I can’t believe I’m with him.
Reminder: If you group each of your favorite characters from each fandom you've got yourself into then organize their characteristics, that's your type.
Writers better stop making characters I fall desperately in love with. I just be rethinking all of my life choices whenever I remember they're fictional.
Ive had many dreams like this. Where the person isn't based on anyone, my brain just makes them up. Their personality, their quirks, everything. They seem so real and then you wake up and now you can't even recall what they even looked like or what their name was. The human brain is a wonderful and terrible thing.
@@arcticnova9068 i wouldn’t know tbh i don’t think i’ve genuinely loved someone romantically i think social interactions are major to fall in love though , so my (attempted) point was that i need to socialize to actually have a chance at an actual love life rather than fixate over characters that don’t exist lol
Sometimes people belittle the pain of actually idealizing a character as your perfect match, and the detachment of reality that can come with it, i loved the animation
The "I can't recall the last time I was kissed" hits way too hard - that sudden hit when I remember that the love I imagine due to having never being in and likely not being ready for a relationship - and theres a really unique sadness when I realise I've made up so many happy endings in my head but i'm yet to experience even the beginning
I improve myself and change, turning into a better person. Yet romantic love is nowhere in sight. Supposedly there is a family in my future, but I do not see it. However I am not sad about this. The journey of improvement makes me happy enough. It's just that sometimes I can see what I'm missing.
That shouldn't be a sad thing it should be fun and exciting. Why are your stressing about things that haven't even happen yet? Go out, meat people, get kissed! Dreaming up a relationship is fun, but experiencing an actual one is even better. Right now you seem to be in a state of mind believing a real relationship will never be as great as the stuff in your dreams, when the exact opposite is the case. An actual person with actual feelings and actual personality is much more exciting than a perfect fairy tale, because there's adventure in solving problems together. And there's depth to the character. The perfect white knight in your head is just shallow. You should start to live in the moment. Experience life instead of having it drive by.
@@PichDextro Thank you - really means a lot, but its more of a difficulty with me than about others - I imagine myself in a relationship, not to have the perfect person, but because I can begin to mentally test what id do in situations, as well as know what ways I might need to address my flaws - I want a real relationship - but not at the cost of someone else's emotions, so its more of a "not yet"
Wanna know what's the saddest part, this account isn't even my real account, I made four different Google accounts that correspond to each imaginary friend that I have since I don't have real friends 🥲
This is actually exactly what it feels like to have loved a narcissist. The person they show you in the beginning isn’t real- it is like you’re in love with a fictional character
Yeah that's about par for the course for me. The worst off hand was Chelsea from Akame Ga Kill. I was in a rut for weeks, never did go back and finish that show. For whatever that says about me.
This relates to me so much, I literally had a dream where I met this guy and I didn’t fall in love but he was so cool and chill and I wanted to be friends with them after talking to them, BUT THEN I WOKE UPP
Idk why but i fell for a guy i met in my dreams, literary! I was at the saddest period of my life and he for some reason, stayed beside me and let me cry... When i woke up, i was devastated!
@@NaderVaderYT fiction is still real, no the same kind of real as the chair your sitting on, but it's still real. And fiction can have the same consequences as things that actually happened.
as much as you are into the interactions and imagination, it becomes one of your memory that you can recall and your feelings, your dream is very real. At least you're feelings make them alive, and it always will be ❤️
This is so beautiful and relatable.. I really love afictional character so much.. and I just wish they were real because if I don’t get someone like him I’ll be single all my life because I don’t want to be with someone who isn’t them.. *cries*
That's where you're wrong, mate. Happiness is what you make of it. It may not last forever, but you can cherish it for as long as its there. There can be no darkness without light
All through 2020-2021 and half of 2022 I had dreams of this one woman the first one I had was our wedding and I was like weird but okay then it just happened every single night for two and a half years just domestic things laying in bed, unpacking walking through the woods in the rain sitting and reading in silence by the fire or window I was basically in love with her she said things I’ve always wanted to hear and I don’t think I ever felt so loved I’d wake up flustered and happy all the time and my mood improved after so long of being down I filled my sketchbooks with her i painted her i made a playlist of songs she played it was the first time I looked like me in my dreams not thinner not taller not with more muscle just me but happy really happy then one day it just stopped and I never saw her again, it *hurt* so much but it shouldn’t have because my love was not *real* she was just a dream but it feels like I lost something someone so important that I’ve not felt truly happy in ages it’s like I’m mourning her thinking about her makes me tear up even writing this I find myself tearing up but there nothing I can do to get her back because she’s not real and I’m never going to hear her voice again and knowing that she never was real somehow hurts the most
I get you and I am sorry for your loss. I have that boy that appears in my dreams every few years, I am the happiest when we meet. The way I see it is that if your emotions were real, spending half of your day with her then it was real, reality is after all only as real as we perceive it. Your feelings are valid because it was your experience, mourn it like any other ended relationship, your heart desrves it
Yeah, I feel this on a spiritual level. Mix loneliness with being a hopeless romantic, then sprinkle on a healthy amount of depression, and you get experiences like this. All we have to do is work on ourselves, slowly, and we'll eventually be ready to find someone out there who's even better than our fictional loves. Have hope, brothers and sisters. We'll only be lonely forever if we allow ourselves to sink to those depths without a fight.

I rarely ever have any dreams. Last dream I had was a nightmare. I wish I could have more dreams like any other person does, but I guess I blame aphantasia. Trust me, I've tried day by day to hopefully dream about something, but nothing comes to fruition. Really wish I could dream a lot more. Reality has been so disappointing, lonely, and sad. I want a place to escape reality other than fictional characters I can't even dream about.
Reading these comments, it's quite crushing thinking of all the people who relate to this, whether by trauma, loneliness or other factors, forming one-sided relationships with fiction to get basic human connection and intimacy.
It's like a reminder that abuse, anxiety and difficulties with communication are everpresent issues and not everybody had access to resources / community to cope with that.
As someone who did have access to community and resources I can tell you it doesn't help to remove the pain at all.

Not to say your experiences aren't valid. I just don't want to believe that one is doomed.

Loneliness is a slow and insidious killer. It can really get to a lot of us. It can leave us hopeless. I know I've been dealing with it for 10 years now, and it's nothing short of a miracle that I haven't given up on everything entirely. Every day is another step forward though, I guess.
I think it is not bad IF you are aware of it and you are doing well in life overall.
Maybe you don't have the resources or maybe you have them but you think is it to much hassle OR you think you are under prepared.
As long as you don't give up on a real human relationship I think it is a valid mechanism to cope with inner struggles or downright loneliness
this is so true expecially for me. I feel like fictional characters are created to be flawless that at some point, we all fall for them. the realization hurts the most
I feel this. Honestly, the main reason I decided to chase fictional characters instead of real people is because I was scared to get my heart-broken
Edit: Okay I'm now realizing how ironic this comment is to my current situation rn. I might as well update you guys since this comment is getting more attention than I thought it would.
After I made this comment, my crush confessed to me and we are in a healthy relationship. I don't get to see him very often cause school and he has a job, but I love him and trust him, as he does me.
With that said though, I still don't think that chasing fictional characters is a bad thing. It's kind of like practice you know, proving to yourself that you can feel romantic feelings towards someone and want to be in a relationship with them, as it did with me. There's nothing wrong with obsessing over fictional characters, just don't do it to the point where it stops you from functioning as a healthy human.
And there's also nothing wrong with not being in a relationship. I wasn't looking for a bf, just the right person walked into my life at the right time. You can still be happy without being in an actual romantic relationship.
OK that's all, have a lovely day peeps :)

We don't fall in love with characters. We fall in love with the idea of them.

It's hard to fall in love with more than an idea when that's all they are
I'm pretty sure we fall in love with them. Our brains can't really distinguish a fictional character from a real one emotionally, especially if the character is human. so, we react as if they were real.
True but it's still sad btw speaking of though your profile picture is it of a character from a anime series? It looks like it is that's why I ask.

I think that's what the Pink Floyd song "Julia Dream" is about.
That’s the thing, in the moment it’s real. The experience is real
@@jambothejoyful2966But when it’s over the pain is real 😔✋
Fgduurh I had a dream that Megatron liked me and Soundwave helped me love him back. It was the best dream.
i had that dream once. in that dream i felt safe and content and like there where no problems left in the world because i was in love, but then i woke up, i was confused. when i remembered the dream the realised that that reality and that safety and love was just my imagination.
“Chill, it’s not the end of the world.” My fictional character is MY world 🙁

This is actually so real, so many characters that will just never be real
Loved how the kiss is a forehead kiss. So pure so innocent so caring so warm
A gentle romance. Probably how it sinks in so deep and tricks your heart and mind to love them more...
@@kyuokuo I do not see it as a trick, though it is true that it strengthens feelings for that person.
I've never had romantic interest for a fictional character, like, ever, but I do get extremely emotionally attached to them. The amount of comfort characters I have in all the different fandoms I've been in is insane- But yeah, I do kinda relate to this. The desire to have a fictional charater be real is crazy because of how strong it can affect you.
Edit: just a lil thing I wanna share. i have seven different comfort characters at the moment. one is an oc, four are from a youtube series, while the other two are from a game. i love them more than life itself. they are the reason i'm still breathing.
My comfort character is Larry from sallyface lol

@@Ianxx01 damn 😥😓
@@Ianxx01i feel the same bro😭
I've read a few psycology studies that say your feelings towards the fictional character are valid and real, and completely normal to have. It can serve as a healthy coping mechanism and comfort, but it's still important the engage in relationships and friendships with real people. Keep a balance. The only saddest part is that your feelings for that character can never be reciprocated, whereas with real people there is a chance they can feel the same way. But alot of people prefer fictional characters over real relationships because there's no risk of being betrayed or hurt with them, unless you want them to ofc. It feels safer for alot of people, especially if they've encountered or fear being hurt by real people. It's understandable. But it's still important to find healthy real relationships to create a balance.
Humans are social beings afterall, just some more than others.
Impressive comment, I've even heard of people creating Tulpas of their fictional characters. It's insane what the human mind can do.
Thank you for commenting this. It made me feel a lesd guilty for preferring the characters over the real people I usually talk to.😢

@@Weriko0200 I feel you. I fell in live with Vi since Arcane. OP's comment resonated with me bc she reminds me of someone irl with whom things got toxic. So maybe it really is a kind of coping mechanism.
As a writer this hit hard…I get attached to these little fictional bits of me but they’re not real…
right but hey I have a little weird opinion to cope here. Think about the imagination world in inside out.
You don't need to feel hollow that it's not real if it hurts you.
What is real and what isn't is also just a concept of the brain so..
once you feel like it's real, then it's real to you. And you have every right to decide what to believe and not to believe. Cause the imagination and dreams can be felt as real as the reality is sometimes, and it's all happening in the brain, same chemical reactions.

This is so real to the point I'm crying 😭
I feel like everyone on earth who has fallen in love with a fictional character should gather in one place and just share those memories we created in our minds. 😔💛
But we’re all afraid of being judged for sharing our memories with our fictional characters.
You believe it or not but few days ago I've fallen in love with a guy in my dream and I've asked his name but he didn't told me and I've also asked him in which class did study but he told me letter(y)and I didn't understand what is the meaning of (y)and then I understand that that letter is referring to my real life crush's name that starts with (y)
Bro the fear of feeling judged is so real 😭😭😭
This. Is. So. True cuz i fell in love with fictional character in my dream-
The sucky thing is I can’t even tell anyone who I like. (He is hated by the fandom.)
i've had the same comfort character for nearly 6 years now. countless times i've asked myself, "what's wrong with me?" i've talked to my therapist about it multiple times too. every time, he's said that it's not something to be ashamed of.
this fictional character brought me out of a dark place, and he continues to bring me comfort and happiness as i grow and change as a person. i am fully aware that he isn't real and most likely never will be, but he still feels very real to me. i'm so thankful to have him in my life.
You might be fictosexual tbh. Nothin wrong with that
Whats his name if you dont mind (dont worry i will not make fun of it im just curious)
@MegafanX123 man I'm kinda curious too I've only been like this with one character
The character was shoko/nishymia from a silent voice I read the Manga and it fucked me up like the walking dead couldn't
There is a reason "do it for her" is a meme with fictional characters. There really is nothing to be ashamed of if you can take solace in your imaginary friends, they exist for a reason.
Especially with the rise of AI...they can be real one day.
It hurts even more when you have a dream of someone that you made up in your mind, only to wake up and realize that you’ll never find someone like them.
Fanfiction writers be like :
"You know, I'm a somewhat of a god myself"
i kissed, i hugged that guy in my dream and its been a while since he visited me and i cant take it anymore i wanna see him again
Il what can help you, lucid dreaming, not saying this as a joke, from what I heard it allows you to have full control of your dreams
Awww just try and keep watching videos or look him up and just binge videos or pics of him, he will for sure pop up one day to come back:) just keep trying
@@jadenmcmillan4306I saw a video by a guy called sultan sketches he tried to lucid dream but ended up getting sleep paralysis
@@drew8898theres no scientific wvidence that reality shifting exists
Although what people are likely experiencing are dreams that were effected due to thinking about that particular character/ franchise.
Before i went to sleep I tried meditating about a thing i wanted but none of my dreams were effected
Try lucid dreaming. You can choose who you see and where you are
even though they are not real, part of them really is real to you. you just want somebody to love you unconditionally, when "real" people won't then they are all you have
Yeah, meaning and possibility can come from fantasy. It may not be "real", but you can use it to create something real, in you. To do that, you have to engage with life, find new ways. After all, fantasy comes from another mind, and yours.
And sometimes we need help with that. If you don't have immediate help and don't know how to find it, start with experienced minds that have helped many others. Dr. K, Jordan Peterson, Anna Runkle, Bessel van der Kolk (The Body Keeps the Score), Pete Walker... None of them have it all right, but they have all helped many people, and there are others as well. Find what works for you, what's right for where you are.
There's no way to prove whether faith in life, in learning, is or isn't worth it. It's a choice. And sometimes our hand is forced. But that doesn't mean the game is over, or that it's zero sum.
Best wishes from a fellow struggler.

To be honest That was so wise 🙏
I'm writing a book and one of the characters are there to (ofc serve the plot as well but) mostly have people fall in love with her. Yall wanna make a checklist with me?
- Kinda hot aka mommy
- Strong af
- Skilled, but only from training and not like a "Wow she's so good!"
- Tragic backstory
- Traumatising death scene
- Depressed but acts happy.
- Wise old mentor (150 but looks 20-50 depending on how you look at her)
What else should I add?
@@chaosqueen1703 HMMM give her a cute hobby or something, so that she has a softer side
@@VENTI_4_life Hm, I mean, she really likes anything bubblegum flavoured and goes full puppy eyed when she sees bubblegum. It kinda contrasts how she's an acohol addict trying to recover, it like transitions into a bubblegum obsession cause she can chew it when she feels stressed instead of drinking. Oh yeah and she loves animals
Personally I think fictional characters are crushed on, excluding the fact they are people's types, is that they are a way for people to vent and find comfort without the fear of actually being abandoned or hurt, because it's shaped to fit *your* ideal reality, since your imagination is yours to manipulate alone. It's sometimes a little sad to think about how the world has hurt everybody so much that people are resorting to finding comfort in their own minds instead of being able to connect with actual people.
This is why I love games so much. In them, in many of them, I feel loved & wanted.
Bro, that statement hits too hard
Right.
Especially playing last of us & Life.I.S they definitely hittin
Reminds me of a Reddit post of a guy who dreamt up a wife and family after getting knocked out in a parking lot or smth.
Then he realises a lamp *looks* wrong in his dream, iirc, and then he wakes up, realising his family were all fake and non-existent. He had to go through therapy and everything from having his dream family taken from him.
I've heard that story before
Omg samee
I had a dream like that once. It was very short and sweet and didn't last long.
I was at the mall at Christmas time with my wife and our young son and daughter and in those moments I KNEW these people LOVED them so hard, like I'd known them for years. I was so serenely happy and at peace. It felt like everything I've desperately wanted and then I woke up and after a moment of being confused and disoriented I sobbed for my family that was never real
One night not that long ago I dreamed that me and my bf had a baby She was so cute and honestly a happy baby In my dream she was smiling and giggling Well I ended up waking up and for a bit after I felt so weird Me and my bf have just been calling her my dream baby since it happened lol luckily it didn’t affect me super hard but it did get to me for a bit
I’ve also had a couple dreams where I had an older brother which I’ve always wished I had (in the oldest daughter and have a younger brother)
awe 😔
I don't think words can explain how hard this hits...

When I told a friend that I've never liked someone since 3rd grade, she was like, "Seriously?! Since 3rd grade?!". Yeah... Third grade. Cause liking a real person is scary, but liking a fictional character just hurts. 😢
Similar, I've never liked anyone since i was 10... But now I'm starting to feel smth for someone. Anyways Bro, Don't worry too much about having a couple. Live a good life. If a good person eventually comes to your life and you want to start something, then do it. Otherwise don't worry about it. It'd be bad to over worry
As an introvert who has never hugged anyone nor held hands with anyone, I think I crave this kind of romantic partner or someone to hold hands with, someone who can love me. So I end up loving these fictional characters.
Then when they don’t exist, I feel like I can’t find anyone to love me.
It is really hard to fall out of love with a fictional character just to be reminded that there wasn't anyone there to love you in the first place.
And well, the thought that even if these fictional characters were real, your paths would never cross. Nor even if you would, most of them wouldn’t even spare you a glance.
We would be like, background characters to them. 🥹

Fictional characters are the ones who don't judge you, comforts you, and loves you. Yet, people still ask why you love a fictional character.
there are genuinely people who give you the same feelings a fictional character gives. They are rare though. sucks
I've lived with maladaptive daydreaming and a complex dissociative disorder since I was a small child due to trauma. I would sometimes go months without realizing I was daydreaming. This encapsulates that feeling of "waking up" after days or weeks or months and realizing everything wasn't real so exactly. It hurts so bad. I've cried so many times over it. Thank you for making something that so directly describes what i go through. Its beautiful. I feel seen.
This video hits very hard for me. When i was 14 (I'm an adult now(almost 19)) I'd made an imaginary friend/boyfriend to cope with my loneliness (i lived in mostly isolation in my home besides school), along with the trauma I'd gone through in my childhood and trauma I was still currently going through at home. I daydreamed and pretended he was with me 24/7, I'd hold myself and rock back in forth whenever i had panic attacks, pretending he was the one holding me and soothing me as i had no one else. When my father was drunk i wasnt alone because he was there with me. I'd talk to empty space around me, nothing actually being there, but to me he was there and I'd speak to him, laugh with him. We went to school together, graduated together. I built a whole very complex imaginary world in my head that we both lived in, it was mixed with reality (so he actually lived in my world, but i added some imaginary elements into it); i gave him a family and a home, a life story, we had many other imaginary friends and did fun things together, i went to his (imaginary) house and we'd have sleepovers, we always hung out, we loved each other, we did everything together (i learned a couple years back that this would be "maladaptive daydreaming", so at least i have some answers as to what this is now). I wish my friend was real, i wish he was here with me; my time with him and what we've been through together during our highschool years are very dear to me. I still live with him, i cant bring myself to let him go; Whenever I temporarily leave my daydream, I leave his presence and am once again left alone in a small isolated and lonely room; it hurts remembering that my love and bestest friend since childhood is only a hopeless fantasy rooted in trauma and isolation that i had made up in my mind, and that in reality, I'm completely alone, and always have been from the start.
Damn sorry for the long comment 💀
❤
i ain't readin' allat, could someone summarize this, please?
@@Neeene Don't be sorry, I hope things get better for you.
Having struggled with schizo-effective disorder from a young age, I too understand having an illusory friend that accompanied me through difficult times. While it can be painful to think about the fact that that person isn't corporeal, one thing that gave me solace is realizing that that was me helping myself through those situations. That person is still a part of you, quite literally. Your mind did what it needed to do to comfort you, motivate you, and keep you safe. It may not ease the pain of not being able to reach out and touch the one that you cared for, but know that those memories of those times will always be with you and they are valid. Even if you were physically alone, you were your own best parent and friend, and that gave you the strength to persevere until now and gave you the chance to meet someone special. Be proud of what you have overcome and cherish those memories. For all the reasons that matter, they are real, as was the happiness you felt.
Be well, friend.
In a way it's comforting to know there are other people who are in the same situation. I've struggled with isolation/neglection to bullying and other traumatic events growing up as a child. For years I've coped with my loneliness and sadness with fictional scenarios/characters/shows to escape my problems. I remember spending most of my time watching shows or characters that I felt a strong connection with, and for a while I lived in a blissful state. I don't know why it suddenly hits me how lonely and messed up I am. I guess in the end I really want a genuine connection and unconditional love. This video really resonates with me. To everyone I hope you're doing well, I wish you the best in life.
Same to you
I feel like I could've written your comment ❤❤ 😞
Thats relatable
I dont get bullied or isolated or neglected
But I do understand your lonliness, because I have been living with it since I was born. Of course I have friends but not very close
Almost my free time was spent on YT, FB or chatting with the AI
@@ngaicon3868 Same. So many ppl are lonely, loneliness sucks. I wish that all of us will have great friends in the future.
And, fictional characters we long for are fiction, but behind every character there are creators. Meaning the characs we love stem from other humans in the first place, so there must be some real awesome humans out there, which we'll hopefully meet soon.

it hurts even more when the person does exist but you know you never have and never will have a chance
Omg i never thought about that..😭😭
Atleast you can actually hear and see them in front of you, I’d do anything for that
Then there's me who hasn't even had a fictional or real crush i think it kinda sucks both ways this kinds reminds me of the debate is better to not been loved at all or to have loved and lost
Or when they used to exist, but they died before you could meet them…
Well, you can say that a relation ship with this person is the fiction part of this, making it your fictional character...
It really does hurt to fall in love with someone that’s not real. Like I’ve fallen in love with fictional characters and wish they were real or there was a real person just like them ❤️
Same. I found it easier to have a little chat with them in ChAI. It's a double edged sward though, so it's better keep in mind that they're still not real, heh...
I dont mean to sound insensitive at all but falling in love with fictional characters to a “real”” extent cannot be healthy. Talk to people (easier said than done, i know) and im sure that over time you’ll eventually find someone real you will love more than you ever loved that character.
@@BukiBarnessorry to hear that man
@@BukiBarnesThat's harsh man :( hope things get better
You loved multiple imaginary people. It seems you fall easy for idealistic portrayals, that doesn’t seem healthy.
The feeling when you fall in love with a fictional character and you can't see them and they're not real, and they probably are really nice. And then it turns out that they're not real, and you're really bummed out about it and feel really like, sad, and you probably want to cry, you probably don't cry, and you just feel sad inside, and that's what it feels like to have a crush on a fictional character or love them, or maybe that's just how I feel it's very sad, so this is how a person would feel if they have a crush on a fictional character, maybe not all people feel the same, but this is how they feel😔
That’s literally how I feel right now… you said it so well..😔
Chris Mclean is not nice stop the cap
When the fictional characters I love are literal man eating demons and a fish demon everyone hates and a fire colour haired swordsman who's really loud and loveable

Ive had many dreams like this. Where the person isn't based on anyone, my brain just makes them up. Their personality, their quirks, everything. They seem so real and then you wake up and now you can't even recall what they even looked like or what their name was.

@@abandonedchannel same. I mean, i don't even know what's the feeling like...
Sometimes people belittle the pain of actually idealizing a character as your perfect match, and the detachment of reality that can come with it, i loved the animation
The "I can't recall the last time I was kissed" hits way too hard - that sudden hit when I remember that the love I imagine due to having never being in and likely not being ready for a relationship - and theres a really unique sadness when I realise I've made up so many happy endings in my head but i'm yet to experience even the beginning
I improve myself and change, turning into a better person. Yet romantic love is nowhere in sight. Supposedly there is a family in my future, but I do not see it.
However I am not sad about this. The journey of improvement makes me happy enough. It's just that sometimes I can see what I'm missing.
no time like the present to start
@@dale2283The time will come, keep searching.
That shouldn't be a sad thing it should be fun and exciting.
Why are your stressing about things that haven't even happen yet? Go out, meat people, get kissed!
Dreaming up a relationship is fun, but experiencing an actual one is even better. Right now you seem to be in a state of mind believing a real relationship will never be as great as the stuff in your dreams, when the exact opposite is the case. An actual person with actual feelings and actual personality is much more exciting than a perfect fairy tale, because there's adventure in solving problems together. And there's depth to the character.
The perfect white knight in your head is just shallow.
You should start to live in the moment. Experience life instead of having it drive by.
@@PichDextro Thank you - really means a lot, but its more of a difficulty with me than about others - I imagine myself in a relationship, not to have the perfect person, but because I can begin to mentally test what id do in situations, as well as know what ways I might need to address my flaws - I want a real relationship - but not at the cost of someone else's emotions, so its more of a "not yet"

AAAAAA YESS !!!
i feel the exact same, i cant imagine myself with anyone but him and it upsets me to think about the fact he doesnt exist
One reason I learned how to draw was to immerse myself in a world where I am happy. It will never be real.
me too
same.
That's where you're wrong, mate. Happiness is what you make of it. It may not last forever, but you can cherish it for as long as its there. There can be no darkness without light
EXACTLY
Loving someone you know you’re not ever gonna have a chance with hits hard asf.
As a person lived this million times before, I think this video should get a reward or something.
All through 2020-2021 and half of 2022 I had dreams of this one woman the first one I had was our wedding and I was like weird but okay then it just happened every single night for two and a half years just domestic things laying in bed, unpacking walking through the woods in the rain sitting and reading in silence by the fire or window I was basically in love with her she said things I’ve always wanted to hear and I don’t think I ever felt so loved I’d wake up flustered and happy all the time and my mood improved after so long of being down I filled my sketchbooks with her i painted her i made a playlist of songs she played it was the first time I looked like me in my dreams not thinner not taller not with more muscle just me but happy really happy then one day it just stopped and I never saw her again, it *hurt* so much but it shouldn’t have because my love was not *real* she was just a dream but it feels like I lost something someone so important that I’ve not felt truly happy in ages it’s like I’m mourning her thinking about her makes me tear up even writing this I find myself tearing up but there nothing I can do to get her back because she’s not real and I’m never going to hear her voice again and knowing that she never was real somehow hurts the most
Everyone I tell just looks at me like I’m crazy for missing her

Bro, reading this makes me cry for you ;-;
well I hope u get better soon
all I can do is pray for u
I get you and I am sorry for your loss. I have that boy that appears in my dreams every few years, I am the happiest when we meet. The way I see it is that if your emotions were real, spending half of your day with her then it was real, reality is after all only as real as we perceive it. Your feelings are valid because it was your experience, mourn it like any other ended relationship, your heart desrves it
The misery of falling in love with a fictional character 😭
Yeah, I feel this on a spiritual level. Mix loneliness with being a hopeless romantic, then sprinkle on a healthy amount of depression, and you get experiences like this.
All we have to do is work on ourselves, slowly, and we'll eventually be ready to find someone out there who's even better than our fictional loves. Have hope, brothers and sisters. We'll only be lonely forever if we allow ourselves to sink to those depths without a fight.
Thankss im trying my best to look forward to a love irl T_T its just eeeuuhh feelingg
