Discussion Anyone have parasocial relationships with people?

[FATLINKSBLACKPENIS]

I really hate to say it but I do.

I have a pretty strong parasocial relationship with Dbdr and that's why I'm very sad that he's gone.

Honestly I think I've had parasocial relationships with people for as long as I can remember.

Even when I was a lil kid I had parasocial relationships with youtubers and stuff.

Even with tv shows i have those kinds of relationships with the characters too.

Wbu guys?

with my vtuber oshis buti t's not purely parasocial since they do talk to me, but it's business for so many it's hard to tell where real feelings begin

Maybe a little bit. I think about fictional foids I like sometimes (though I am not even an avid anime watcher, maybe 2 or 3 anime a year, including re-watching) and I was a fan of Pewdiepie when I was younger, though I wouldn't elevate it to parasocial status.
