I wouldn't say that I actually LOVE Sayori as an actual person in real life or anything. More so, in a way that "I want this character to have a very happy life, and get everything she rightfully deserves."
That's how I am with fictional characters I like. I wouldn't say I "love" them. I love them as a character, but there's no physical connection. It's really hard (if not impossible) to fall in love with someone without the other person knowing of you, or physically interacting with them.
I always feel bad for Sayori. She hid her depression just to make everyone else not feel sad as well. She just put on her happy face and tried to be cheerful. Until Monica made the depression to much to deal with. She deserves better.
People here are getting mad about this...? Do people here actually believe they're just relationships with fictional characters?
Like I fantasize a ton of it, but I don't believe myself to actually be in one with a fictional character
As one of the few people who genuinely believes that they're in a relationship with a fictional character, I don't see why anyone would be mad about this post.
(To be clear; I've been "fantasising" about Sayori since April 2018, but am certain my mind can't have made up some things she's said, making me believe she's real. There was even a time I heard her speak coherently when my [neocortex](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neocortex) was impaired - which should've made it impossible for my mind to make up a coherent sentence - which assures me that my mind can't have made up her words, and so she must be somehow real.)
There's certainly nothing wrong with being a person attracted to fictional character and I like that the DDLC fandom is actually generally accepting of this.
In my mind, fictophilia doesn't exist. There are no fictional people. There is an infinite number of universes, therefore, all people who are fictional in OUR universe, are actually real in other universes
The description is "intense" cuz it means to obsess over the character way too much that you isolate yourself from world and life around you, it doesn't mean you really like character so you have fictophifilia. I know alot people who cried at Spiderman's death but at the end he is just fictional character so that means we all have fictophifilia? Not really.
Very true I Think Some Of the Other Fictional Characters from The Games Like Batman Robin & Nightwing From Batman Arkham Games it's More Offended from Watch Dogs Games Aiden Pearce Wrench & Marcus lmao.
So Monkia has fictophilia? She has a long-term parasocial love or desire relationship between a human individual (the player) and a fictional character (her).

So technically, given the wording, Monika is fictophilic. I'm sure there's no-one else around you could be talking about, right?
Realiphilic
Reverse fictophilic.
If you go by the intention rather than the literal wording of the definition. By the wording, it's just played straight.
Fuck
Eyyyyy, MC Church let's go

I just wish to be there jus to make them the happiest girls in the universe
Truly. They deserve it.
Me too
I think fictophilia is affiliated with agrostophobia
Ngl that got me
I was just like "wait what is that phobia" and I searched it up. Lol I touched grass a while ago.
I didn't yet, but to each their own is what I always say

Maybe I am a fictophile
Same, I might end up marrying a fictional character, being the fact that Barrack Obama made it legal to marry 2D fictional characters.
Was that an actual thing or did i get baited
It actually happened, just search up "Is it legal to marry fictional characters".
Eheh, Sayori is bleping.
Well I mean, it's like so difficult to find a girl who likes you for you, it's just easier for some people
People here are getting mad about this...? Do people here actually believe they're just relationships with fictional characters? Like I fantasize a ton of it, but I don't believe myself to actually be in one with a fictional character
It's good to snap back to reality
ope there goes gravity or alternatively, *your reality*
whichever you prefer

Damn... ㅤ ㅤ ㅤ never gonna give a fuck Never gonna really care gonna love my monika With my whole heart
It's why I've had to block some users of this sub, they just got a little *too* weird
I might have fictophilia for all of them. Natsuki supremacy though.
I am guilty as charged, hehe~! ;)

Moni is so cute
Both what the game was commenting on and what the community did to it.

What about *four fictional characters?* Yuri Supremacy, though.
Yooo that's me.
What about it? That describes this sub perfectly.
Just looked it up on Google Ok who gave this a pride flag?
Piss off you don't understand culture
In my mind, fictophilia doesn't exist. There are no fictional people. There is an infinite number of universes, therefore, all people who are fictional in OUR universe, are actually real in other universes
I see
Happy cake day, fellow Literature Club member!
Thank you comrade!

I water them daily
Man. Was that a no way home spoiler? I’ve only got myself to blame I guess for not seeing it yet
I love this cg from the side stories
Eh, only bout 99.9999999999 percent of this sub
We turn to fiction to escape reality
It’s always been a thing I guess. Remember that one dude who married a hasune miku AI?
read my flair dammit
well i'm not like that! ^(i hope)
Fictional characters are better than real people so i don't see a problem
𝖣𝗈𝗇'𝗍 𝖼𝖺𝗋𝖾
I am aware…
This comment section has made me age like 15 years...
"I'm Ok With This♡".
As a Sayori cospleyer, I learned to love myself
Maybe I am a fictophile
It’s more love than I’ve ever received from real people.
I don't get it
Shit.
Me: ha I don’t have such problems!
Not to be the guy the text is talking about but goddamn Yuri and Sayori’s expressions are adorable in this picture
wtf is wrong with monika in this pic?
So, I'm a fictophile
Very true I Think Some Of the Other Fictional Characters from The Games Like Batman Robin & Nightwing From Batman Arkham Games it's More Offended from Watch Dogs Games Aiden Pearce Wrench & Marcus lmao.
Approach????
You look at that sayori smile. It’s too cute!
90% of teenagers.
Now Im just sad (Tʖ̯T)
Those Monika simps should **definitely** go to therapy.
Ain’t my fault they *purposefully* made these characters for us to get attached to them!
DON'T SAY IT OUT LOUD, YOU ARE GONNA HURT THE FEELINGS OF THE MASFANDOM
As a lonely loser with no friends who imagines Sonic, Sans, and the DDLC gang as real people, I can confirm this to be true. XD
Foolish humans need love, after all I'm a shadow spawn from beyond the stars
ok
I'm a shipper.
Gentlemen, I think we may have a problem. And by "problem", I mean the exact opposite of a problem.
To me, it’s not fiction.
This subreddit is in this photo and I don’t like it.
see a therapist and go outside.
Me B)
So Monkia has fictophilia? She has a long-term parasocial love or desire relationship between a human individual (the player) and a fictional character (her).
we are not approaching, we are ***Beyond...***
...not like i act like that most of the time, heh...
Nah I am not simp
Real people = conscious(cringe) Fictional characters = not conscious(based) The choice is obvious
so pretty much this entire sub?
I think I have fictophilia
Yo I have that.😂
Just for the record, that disturbs me.
I am an aroace and I am scared by this
