Okay... I really want to know if other girls/gay guys do this.

Basically I only ever fall in love with fictional characters (not always from anime but still). When I do take an interest in a real person it's usually because I don't know them that well and I 'fictionalize' them in my mind. Like I take the attributes that I do know of them and think they are so much like some fictional character I've been in love with before. I also have no desire to get closer to a real person because that would ruin whatever fantasy I have about who they are. I tend to like a certain trope male in fiction as well.

In a nutshell the trope I like is someone who is bitter and isolated or seemingly 'evil' but secretly just needs attention and love.

I'd really like to know if other people do this, what type of character you do this with and why you think psychologically it happens. Sorry if this is the wrong board for this discussion.

Scratch evil, and it sounds a bit like you OP doesn't it? You isolate yourself from others (don't want to ruin your fantasy by getting to know them) but want love. 4chan isn't a good shrink so maybe visit a real one?
>>
Are you literally gay, OP?

OP I know EXACTLY how you feel.
Best bet is just getting a hug pillow or something because 3DPD will never satisfy us. ;_;

straight guys too are burdened with the surreal and empty feel of falling for someone who only exists in fiction.

im drawn to darker character ho are very selective about who they show kindness to

as far as breaking this kind of thing down psychologically, i think there is a chance that real love is 475637times as intimate and fulfilling and i just haven't felt it yet.

You are not the only one, anon. Except with me, I've never had an interest in another human being except the 2 minor crushes I had when I was only a child. I have never met a person I've felt emotionally connected to except for fictional ones.

>why you think psychologically it happens

I believe it usually happens in people who are not very social friendly (severe case of social anxiety, a long history of being bullied, outright social outcasts, etc). They reach out and fall in love with a character who can not reject them for who they are and what they have possibly done.

>>2914175
>and it sounds a bit like you OP doesn't it?

It's always like this in my case. My process of falling in love with a fictional character is being able to relate to them on some level, then forming a emotional attachment that turns into love.

>>2914173
you're not alone.

if someone doesn't have feelings for a fictional character, i'm surprised

I know your feels, femanon. That is a road that leads to disappointment. Real men will never love you. Use them for cock and buying you drinks, go home and masturbate to your beloved. Real men are disgusting, ungrateful pigs who will hurt you. 2D is love.

I go for anti-heroes and grey-morality villains. They're not afraid to be rough~

Don't go for real men with that type, OP, the "just needs love and he'll stop being an asshole" type. That is how women get abused.

I don't want this. I want real caring, support, romantic kissing and having my pussy licked thanks. But we all can see how real guys act irl and write on the internets - this is 4chan for gods sake, reading here is enough to turn you off real men for ever. I don't want ot be with a pornloving womanhater.

It's 2D or other girls I guess

>other girls I guess

I'd be a lesbian if I could, but I love everything about the male form, from the shoulders to the chest (god, the chest) to the hips and ass and the big hands and strong forearms. The SCENT. But they're dickheads. Always think they're being clever and pulling one over on you, trying to be manipulative, trying to puff their feathers, meanwhile eye always on the lookout for a hotter girl who can suck them off. Brutish, dirty, rude, messy, disgusting, foul in manner, lack of hygiene, or if you get one that grooms itself it's a pansy-ass who shrieks at bugs and is either emaciated or skinnyfat. And then there are the ones with issues.

>tfw have never loved a real man

>>2914365

You have literally devolved into the men you dislike so much. You're just on the other side.

Men:
>all women are whores
>they cheat on us
>always go for dicks instead of nice guys

You guys:
>they're dickheads
>always looking for a hotter girl to suck them off
>reading here has convinced me ALL men are pornloving womenhaters
>will always hurt you
>real mean are disgusting ungrateful pigs

My point is that all of the normal people, (and yes, they ARE on 4chan too,) thing you people are really kind of sad for generalizing the opposite sex and writing off all other men/women because you're insecure.

Also, >>2914175, is exactly right. This is escapism. You reject 3D because 2D is easier, it can never disappoint you.

Not all 3D is bad guys. There are good guys out there, just as I'm sure there a good girls too. (Why are using a disgusting place such as 4chan as a reference for how normal people are anyway.)
>>
>>2914365
I'm not trying to sound rude or anything but it sounds like you just have trouble with people in general. I know plenty of guys that are exactly opposite of what you just described.
>>
>>2914373

All of that said though, I do the same thing. I fall for fictional characters and have only ever had one guy I've ever actually liked. He is my boyfriend. He is my proof that good guys exist.

If you're ugly, abused, or socially awkward it's totally fine to be bitter about your life. Just acknowledge it and move on. I guess that's hard to do all the time but it's better to try than becoming sexist.
>>
there is nothing wrong with falling in love with fake people
humans have been doing that since the dawn of times
>>
I only fall in love with fictional characters because I'm far too repressed , scared and angry to love a real person.

I know that If I love them, im going to let my guard down around them, and sooner or later they will see parts of me I'm too scared to share with anyone, the parts of me i try very hard to hide on a daily basis, because theyre either dangerous or crushingly depressing, there's this fear that I might snap and loose controll, like has happened in the past, and hurt the person I love, I don't think I could live with myself if that happened.

So, If I don't let myself love real people, I can't hurt real people. Simple.

4chan is filled with people who had insane controlling parents. That's where worrying so much about appearance and stepping out of line emotionally comes from. That's why they reject potential wives and husbands. Familial narcissism, basically.

>>2914578

After re reading my initial post I can see some of the clues that would/ could have led you to that conclusion, but still, nice work.

Were you always so good at psych related stuff or did you have to study?
>>
>>2914173
Well... In my case I'm just bad at reading and emitting social clues, especially flirting and interacting with someone with more in mind than being just friends. My default face is not very expressive so usually people can't tell if I'm interested and when they try to reach out to me I get scared and run away, emotionally and physically. Since I was very young my parents have been in bad terms and my dad specially was at first kind of absent and emotionally abusive, the type who one time says that loves you a lot and the other says you are only capable of fucking everything up and that you are like a curse in his life, and then started talking shit about my mother when their relationship hit rockbottom. My mother had problems of her own but didn't expressed herself emotionally very much. They didn't divorced because of cash problems and spend a big time of my childhood and adolescence fighting and telling me that I should never marry or date anyone, my dad specially, and that all men are shit and only think about sex. Thus I don't really get how to express healthy feeling towards guys and how not to be attracted to guys who treat me like crap and make fun of me. They only time I actually had a date was when I was in a summer job in a library and since I had to act all receptive and cheerful all the time some clients kind of had a thing for me, one was a creepy old guy who gave me some earrings and talked about his Porsche and the other seemed cool but tricked me into inviting me to a movie opening that I really wanted to see but when we got to the cinema he said he actually had no tickets and bought some remaining tickets for some crappy comedy about a guy trying to get with a 17 years old girl. The movie was very bad, but I didn't even get to watch it because he wanted to make out the whole time. I then realized that making out with a freaking stranger in the back of the cinema was awful and by the end of the movie just went straight home.
>>
>>2914594
...continuing. There where some other guys that I had interest in, all with girlfriends, and others that were actually really nice but I just didn't know how to react and they just gave up.
The nice thing about fictional characters is that they feel safe. I can always stop reading/ watching if I don't like something. In drama cds I can just self insert in the heroine and everything happens without me having to take any initiative. Sorry for being so long, it's just that it's something I can't talk with my friends because I'm afraid they will thing it's too weird.
My favorite type in fiction is the delinquent with a heart of gold. I like the idea that I'm the only one with whom he could open up and be sweet and stuff, I'm a bit possessive I guess.
I've been thing for a while that I should try a "fiction detox" to force my self to interact with real guys, but maybe I should try to heal my daddy issues before.
>>
>>2914594
>>2914600

You need more than a fiction detox, you need to work on your self-esteem, and learn about healthy boundaries and healthy relationships. Therapy, perhaps. There are also many internet articles and books about such things to start out with.

Wow didn't expect such a deep thread on /cm/
>>
Yes, I'm meaning to read "Toxic parents" and maybe "The drama of the gifted child". I plan on doing therapy when in a couple of years when I can afford it on my own. If you have any article or book in mind to recommend it would be cool too.
I'm also surprised, 4chan was the last place I thought I'd write and read about this.

4chan is a place where people air personal issues whether they know it or not because it's anonymous. I don't know anything about you except your inner struggles but they're very common for those who end up being nerds.

Basically if your parents removed or stunted your social abilities and your sense of self you would use a fictional character as a stand in for yourself. Because they used YOU as a fictional stand in for their own need to look good, an actor. So this is what was taught from parent to child. Now OP will fictionalize men she meets as perfect or total dickheads which isn't that far from normal behavior, it's just the reason for doing so seem to be to deny her own will and desires. Those desires are kept safe in the form of fantasy men.
>>
>>2914528

You're still a sexist. you're the same for demonising an entire sex. Whether you're passive or aggressive about it doesn't mean shit.

Men are definitely not an oppressed group. You are correct. But it doesn't change the fact that you are a sexist. You can be sexist to men, whether you wanna believe it or not. "Sexism," doesn't mean "woman hating," it means to put prejudice against some because of their sex. Typically the sex being prejudiced is women, but that doesn't change the whole definition. You seem to think that sexism and misogyny have the same meaning. That is where you are incorrect.

Also, nowhere did I say men were oppressed. I said that whether or not you are being passive about your hatred against men or aggressive about it, you're still sexist. I'm aware you're not being oppressive. But you still have sexist thoughts.

Please don't put words in my mouth. If you dislike the word "sexist," I can also call you a misandrist. Would that clear up your confusion?

>Seriously LOL. You sound personally offended.

Argue this way if you like, but when you read what I wrote and change it, (arguing about oppression versus what I actually said,) it doesn't get us anywhere.

And I'm not telling you your ideas are wrong, I'm also not telling you to date men. What I am saying is when you think like:

>men are sexist and shitty

That you are in fact being sexist and shitty yourself. Just because men aren't oppressed, (which I never brought up,) doesn't mean that being sexist against them isn't being sexist.

If you really feel you're doing nothing wrong, (which is fine,) but you think it's wrong men think that way, (which defeats the whole purpose of feminism to equalize the sexes,)then maybe you're just insecure? (Since you attempted to invalidate my argument by trying to make out to sound as though i was being silly.) If you're not, then at the very least you're being hypocritical.

I won't deny though that I AM personally offended, not because you think that way. But that as a member of an oppressed group you feel that it grants you immunity from being sexist. Which is ridiculous.
>>
>>2914694
Maybe who knows what will happen.
Put it in qutation marks to show I talked about the group as a class

>>2914777
This seems important to you. Perhaps it's because I never wrote some men or not all men. I'm aware not every man is shitty. Too many act shitty and womanhating. It puts me off dating them. I would call it prejudice, not sexism. To stay away from a group that seems to have little regard for you, as a whole.

I wish misognyist men simply decided to stay away from us, didn't bother us, consider dating men instead & idolized cool female fictional heroes...

I date plenty of guys, and I've never seen a respectable one. Even my friends in uni (who are male), I would never date because they're womanizers. While I'm single I might sleep around, but if/when I have a boyfriend I don't cheat. Men cheat, so much, so casually.

>>2914374

A-anon. I wish I could attach a hug as a file.

>>2914616

She isn't me. I think all people in general are shit and mean and like to hurt others. 2D doesn't hurt me. I give 3d a fair chance, and they always screw it up. So many men who seem otherwise normal will just cancel a date on you, or will drop you to get suzy tantits to suck him off. I'm not exactly ugly, either, and I'm sweet in a relationship. Just, men are always depraved. And most women. Women can be very catty. My landlord yells at her sweet husband a lot, and he seems nice and doesn't do anything to deserve it. People are just awful, both genders.

But at least a woman lover wouldn't want to pump you in five seconds to get herself off, then leave to play videogames the rest of the night.

Ok, well that was a lot to take in, Reading that gave me a full emotional rolercoaster from boiling rage to the warm fuzzies.

Firstly, your men cheating thing, I'm going to strongly disagree with that, yeah some guys do it, and yeah some guys are casual as fuck about it, but not every guy does it so don't you dare rope me in with those motherfuckers, in a paragraph or so, you have judged all men on the actions of the worst of us, you understand how unfair that is don't you?

that was pretty aggressive, sorry, but that really pissed me off.

>>2914417

There are the warm fuzzies, that was my post.

I used to hate people, I still do to a certain degree, and I know I always will, but one morning I had a moment of clarity and realized that people were not the problem, it was me and the way I perceived those people. No backstory, no understanding of thief situation or motivation, just preemptive judgment that made me excessively bitter and cynical.

I know you were speaking generally but I feel I should share this with you.

The only times I've canceled dates have been when I'm in the middle of a week long depressive slump, or when I've had a panic attack as I'm about to walk out the door.

As for Suzy tantits, Ive never really found her that attractive at all.

There's some other little bits and pieces I take issue with, bit I can skip over them to adress your closing paragraph.

>But at least a woman lover wouldn't want to pump you in five seconds to get herself off, then leave to play videogames the rest of the night.

The fact that this is your understanding of the male attitude to sex is frustratingly tragic.

>So many men who seem otherwise normal will just cancel a date on you, or will drop you to get suzy tantits to suck him off.

That is normal though. Were you really coddled growing up? Because normal people do this. But you wanted something else and you couldn't get it so you're sort of throwing a tantrum if you think about it.

>>
>>2914780

Y'know? /cm/ is truly a magical place. We are having a discussion/argument and so fat there has been little to not shit flinging.

I do agree with: >>2914783, that sexism and prejudice are really the same thing.

But that doesn't matter. Phew, I can calm myself now. I think a lot of misogynist men do prefer dudes or female characters. At least the ones on 4chan, (I know not all of them,) but a lot of guys on this site are always saying how they'd trade all the relationship experience for a good bro, that and those countless waifu threads on /a/ mixed with the 3DPD attitude.

>The fact that this is your understanding of the male attitude to sex is frustratingly tragic.

That was my ex of 6 years. He did that to me all the time, and I had to beg him just to get off the game. He'd play for 12,16 hours a day, and I'm not kidding. I clocked him.

Lots of guys cancel dates on me. I'm friends with a lot of guys, and I know they cheat (they tell me; I'm pretty chill), even though they're pretty decent-seeming. One would cheat with 3 different girls a week. I mean, I'm getting this from experience, not pulling out cherry pickings off the net. Most guys who have the opportunity to cheat, do. The only ones who won't cheat are too ugly to get the chance. Sad but true. If they were attractive, even beta mcniceguy would cheat.

>not every guy

Maybe there are nice guys out there, but I haven't seen any. Maybe it's a phase or something.

>The only times I've canceled dates have been when I'm in the middle of a week long depressive slump, or when I've had a panic attack as I'm about to walk out the door.

Anon why? Hey, I used to have real bad social anxiety, but I got over it 95%. You can do it! When I get feeling depressed, I need to go for a run, otherwise I'll fall into a week-long slump where I lay around staring at the ceiling. When I least want to go outside and face the world, that is what I must do.

>>2914870

Hell no, you do not cancel a date, that isn't right. I cleared my schedule to go out with you. It's common fucking decency to at least give a day or two of notice, as much as possible.
>>
>>2914875
Not really, no. I don't connect very well with people, nor do I have a family that's supportive.

>>2914881
He knows that I don't love him, we recently had a kind of long discussion about it after I turned down his marriage proposal. I guess he's okay with it still because he stresses how much he doesn't want to lose me and that it's either me or no one at all for him. I'd feel guilty if I left him, but I know this isn't fair for him, either.

When it comes to games, There are some guys that are like that, hell I'll even admit to pulling the occasional 16-18 hour playthrough with buddies on release night.

I don't know, it just seems like if you have a girlfriend that your supposed to care about, and your options are, keep playing this video game, or spend time with her, the obvious choice 9/10 times (for me anyway) is the girlfriend.

Again, I take issue with your opinion on cheating, I understand you can only go on what you have seen and experienced, and that's what I'm doing as well.

As I said yeah, some guys do it, But to say every guy would do it if they got a chance is just, I don't know, factually wrong, and to imply that if your not cheating, you must be ugly, well shit, now your jut insulting me in a roundabout way.

I'm going to share a little bit of deeply personal information.

my dad cheated on my mum when I was, 14-15, no idea how long it went on for but it destroyed their marriage, I saw what It did to her, I saw how much it hurt her, that's why I could never cheat on someone I love, because if i hurt a person that much, the guilt alone would kill me.

I'm interested to find out, what your definition of cheating is?

yeah, I'm dealing with my anxiety better than I was like 12 months ago, but there's still a long way to go, you know like 24 ish years of learned and reinforced behaviour isn't going to get fixed overnight.

Thanks for caring enough to share your story anon, its always, inspiring when I hear from people who conquered their anxiety.

Enjoyable video. Yes, devoting yourself like that to one fictional character is so weird and self-destructive. It's a character created by someone else to be a part of a story...

I've been in a relationship for seven years but I still fall in love with fictional characters, I've done it since I was a child. I was also really lonely as a kid and had no siblings or parents. It happens to some people.
>>
I'm with >>2914988 on this

I can get being infatuated/having a crush on fictional characters, but not intentionally using them as placeholders for a significant other. Especially if the reason is you're too sexist or narcissistic to go look.

I'm the same, except I kind of really want a gf (not a bf, though I like male characters much more than female ones in fiction). But as I've never had a crush on a real person, I can't tell if I'm really just not interested in romance anyway, or if I would be if I hung out more with people. I do have friends, but I like my alone time much more than socialising. And as for loving fictional characters, I don't even know if I'd go so far as calling my feelings for them love or even a crush. My feelings never seem to be all that strong, so I'm afraid I'd really quickly get bored if I was in a real relationship. Idk, I'm just really confused.

I don't think every guy sleeps around , but you are right anon. I'm also mostly friends with guys, but altough none of them actually had sex outside the realitionship. Crossing borders of intimacy with other people was mostly the issue. Flirting, hugging, holding hands, having sexual conversations, all those things are in the grey zone, but i know no man who has never got there. Even the nicest, sweetes guys in a happy relationship.
It's not like all females are saints, but i know some who take it to the level of absolute purity and even refuse to talk to guys who are seemingly sexually interested in them.

I am in a relationship at the moment. We have been together for 2 years now.
It has never been perfect, we do not have that much in common, but we get along well.
He is very attractive, tall, blonde, blue-eyed, sadly also ingnorant and boring. On the other side he has a lot of practical talents and i a very hard-working and abitous person.
I can depend on him, but i don't even feel like he knows me.

He does a lot for me, but what we have appears worthless compared to the romantic realtionship i always dreamed of.

Is it the imaginary love i had trough my entire teenage life that causes the disappointment?

Now, I'm homosexual but in MY personal experience, that's just not the case either. Both with straight and gay male friends. There are many males who does this "absolute purity" too and shies away from advancements from others.

I guess it's just about surrounding yourself with the right people. Regardless of gender.

Don't worry, most misandrist posters in this thread seem to be crazy tumblr SJW's; you wouldn't want anything to do with them anyway.

I love men. Sure there are bad men, just as there are bad women, but in my experience, most people are good. It's the people without self-esteem who's never accomplished anything in their lives that cling to prejudices like sexism and racism: "The reason I'm not successful is because of the patriarchy/jews etc." it's an excuse that they cling to because they can't face the hard truth: they are bad pathetic people who will never amount to anything.

The worst part is that feel of impotence when you can't get close to a person. I mean, there are people with horrible deformities, schizophrenics, gays living in bumfuck nowhere who are gettin married and have stable relationships. Meanwhile, you are here, rewatching samurai champloo for the fifth time, trying to forget how cold you've become.
Anyway, to stay on topic my taste for husbandos is not something specific, I actually like them more when they break their anime personality canon. Some good example would be someone like Vegeta. The evil, intimidating, abusive, eternal nemesis that turns out to be more balanced, reflective, and much more fragile than he looks like. I guess I'm looking for complexity here, something that you don't expect coming out of your typical anime/cartoon and makes you enjoy the series a lot more.

Two wrongs don't make a right. And I really haven't seen a disproportionate amount of hatred of women on 4chan. The permavirgins who think women owe them sex and are evil for not giving it to them are just as bad as SJW's who think all men are out to rape them.

>I mean, hating men because they're men is stupid and harmful, obviously, but I'd only give my respect to someone who I know is worth it...

Respect can mean a lot of different things, but I think we all owe each other some common decency. You know the saying "Innocent until proven guilty" ? I go by a slightly more optimistic approach; "Good until proven bad" and I'm rarely disappointed.

Oh I didn't expected so many people answering my little survey, heh, Im gonna keep playing:
>Do you make tribute to your husbandos?(fanfics, fanart, signatures on your blog/forum account, weeby stuff)
>Do you have a special homo couple with two of your husbandos? (match made in heaven)
>How obsessed have you got about them bishies? (embarrassing stories if you can pls)
>How many merch do you have of your husbando?

Mine:
-I used to write a ton of fanfics about the boys I liked, most of them were yaoi of course, Sai, Kaworu, Shinji, kurapika, etc. I'm glad I never self-inserted with OC's or something like that even thought it was the trend in those years.
-My special couple is Kawoshin. It's predictable but perfect, they both have that calm, tender aura I like in characters; and the mix between the akward angst attitude in Shinji and the 'coolness' of Kaworu make the sex great. It's also a canon homo couple in a non-yaoi anime so.
-I've never got awfully obsessed about my husbandos, my passion for them is something more...subtle...I do get crazy for games. I remember the first time I played Starry Sky I loved the opening theme and sighed every time I talked to Yoh. I saved all the images with him of course, and had the wedding one as a screensaver. Now I have all Starry Sky games and Yoh's still my favorite.
-Right now I have two posters of makoto, a dakimakura made by a famous tumblr artist, and I'm wating for a fig that's gonna get here in two weeks. I also have a photo with a cosplay cutie that I might as well have taken back to the hotel if it wasn't for his gf.

I have in my BBM written "<3 D-16 <3" which is how he was depicted while being a miner, I also write the same in my notebooks, I usually have his picture as screen saver in my phone and i draw him a lot in my notebooks -as simple as possible-

>Do you have a special homo couple with two of your husbandos? (match made in heaven)

Never, maybe my would fuck husbandos -like starscream and bumblebee- but the actual one, never.

>How obsessed have you got about them bishies? (embarrassing stories if you can pls)

I draw him -i'm not good at drawing but not teen weaboo tier- usually in my notebook, there was a time in which it was all day and all night practicing bodies, so you might guess who was my inspiration, my friends might used to have a pleb taste in drawings or they had always been too kind, so they usually love my "pin-ups" of my current husbando -i even made a human megatron which i'll never publish because it's embarrassing-

And now i asked an uncle of mine to gift me a transformers prime megatron, it has me so excited, i have been waiting for it for a year, everyday i told my friends "OMG i know i'll get him, i'll get him..." and then my uncle sent me other kind of things -which i appreciate a lot- anyway, she suddenly sent me a remote control bumblebee, i thought she wanted to give me megatron face to face, but no, she misunderstood and she somehow thought i wanted bumblebee, when i asked her to Please bring me Megatron "the evil one" because that's my favorite one I felt so embarrassed that i didn't even wanted to open my window, that night was an awful one.

>How many merch do you have of your husbando?

Nothing, i'm a poorfag so i'll just wait for a gift or something.

>Are you very young, anon?

Nice opening.

I agree with her. Two wrongs really don't make a right. And it's frankly quite hypocritical of you to criticize and trying to belittle someone that's pointing out sexism, regardless of specific gender.

>Having an entitled rapist mentality and wanting to avoid that sort of guy isn't being as bad as each other...

It's the same principal. Prejudice and sweeping generalizations. The fact that some have it worse than others does not negate that fact nor does it excuse one party of its actions.

More like deluded, to the point of paranoia.

>Men, really, really don't need you defending them like they're some poor group being discriminated against because some femanons don't feel like dating them anymore after seeing all their unappealing sexist behaviour IRL and on the internet.

You talk about men like they're a homogeneous group. Men aren't a monolith; there are good men and bad men. But as I said most are good guys. And I don't feel like I'm defending men, more like I'm attacking insanity.

>Having an entitled rapist mentality and wanting to avoid that sort of guy isn't being as bad as each other...

Being a crazy SJW who thinks all men are out to rape them isn't the same thing as wanting to avoid rapists. I have no particular desire to hang out with rapists or get raped, but I still consider SJW's and misogynists as equally toxic groups.

Yeah, I'm sure there are many people on 4chan (well the nerdy parts anyway, not the normalfag boards) who feel the same way.

I'm 25 and never have had any romantic/sexual contact with the opposite sex. I grew up well aware that I was extremely ugly so I never even dreamed of having a bf. It was just completely alien to me. I still can't imagine it. I have only ever felt sexual desire or crushed on fictional characters. I know it's pathetic but hey, it's harmless and it really makes me happy. I don't have a husbando because the feelings pass eventually (I don't re-watch shows and generally aren't interested in same anime/manga for very long), but while they last, I feel at least a little bit similar to how normal people feel when they are in love. It's just a happy, warm feeling. I haven't had friends for years (I'm kind of a shut in) and when I did, the friendships were always strained (I was never the best friend of my best friends) so I like experiencing friendship through fiction. I constantly escape my shitty life to these fantasies, just imagining what character X would say in this situation etc.

I've been on 4chan and other shitty parts of the internet for so long I've developed a very negative impression of men. I really think most men are misogynists who see women as something lower than dogs. I've never blamed men for not liking me and I used to think it would be possible to at least be friends to them but I can't even trust them as friends anymore. I even see my male family members as suspicious, I have a little brother I love a lot but I also feel like once he grows up he will hate women too. Maybe I'm paranoid but I think it's closer to realism.

Sorry, I don't usually answer these, here's a picture of a cute 2D guy.
>>
>>2917303

No, you're not paranoid at all. Not all men view women as dogs but they don't understand our lives because they don't face the same amount of abuse. I've heard it said that men don't truly begin to understand women are human until they have a daughter. Not even having a wife is enough to break the spell.

Okay, so I'm in a similar situation as >>2917303 except I'm not really ugly (or at least not aware that I am), just average/plain. I have dark hair and brown eyes and I live in a country chock full of tall, pretty blondes. I don't look particularly feminine and if you chopped my hair off and filled in my eyebrows a little people wouldn't be able to tell if I was female, I actually did that once and literally nobody could tell. Also have small tits. I'm also a bit of a shut-in and have never been a particularly bad friend but have never been anyone's favourite either. Even my dog feels kind of meh about me, even my parents. I'm not very sexual either, most of my Chinese cartoon crushes are platonic, so even if a guy did like me he'd grow bored really soon.

That being said, I don't think most men are bad. I'm kind of neutral towards men in general, there's way too many different kinds of people, men included, and it's bad to judge. Sure there's some assholes, but whatever, there's female ones too.
It depends on the company, I met many guys who are very nice and kind, but to most people I'm mostly a little sister type of friend because there's really not much that's attractive about me. Even if I did something RANDAM XDDD with my looks I'd still have the dry and tasteless personality, I'd just look immature on top of that.

My issue is that I'm way too invested in my ambitions, studies and work so even if I did find a guy who genuinely likes me, I'd probably have to give up what I do for him.

Sorry for the blag post.

1) Most guys won't say that.

2) They can't care if they don't know.

3) They will see most things from their own point of view and interpret them in their own way. They don't know what girls go through because girls are not presented as people in the media, but sexy lamps who start nagging on their period. To them, their mum isn't a woman, she's a mum. And many women also encourage and enforce those beliefs because they like being pampered and put on a pedestal, so they play along while it fits them instead of bursting their bubble.

That being said, everyone cares about themselves first and foremost. It is not a man thing, the issue is men have been encouraged to demand all these things for so long and told that it is "how things are supposed to be" that naturally it takes a lot of time to unlearn it. And even then some don't want to because they're uncomfortable with the fact that they have to learn how to wipe their own arse now, instead of having their wife do it for them while they watch the telly beer-in-hand. That's why you see Fedora O'Tippington over there crying how things used to be better in the 50s and how arranged marriage is the way to go, and how women nowadays are angry harpies.

But everyone cries about their problems first, you think tumblr feminist fatacceptance genderqueers care about Fedora O'Tippington's problems? Lel no. That's why we need to see things from both points of view and understand the situation better, so we know how to remedy it. And we can't do that while screaming "DIE CIS SCUM / GB2 THE KITCHEN" at each other. Going "BUT ALL MEN ARE PIGS!!" is just making it worse and is going to create an adverse reaction from the men who weren't on the whole equality train already. And even those who supported you are going to stop if you act like an abrasive fagatron. Be smart about it and try to see things through.

Doesn't happen often, but there are a few characters that I've grown fond of. I do have a husbando, but not out of misogyny, desperation, or feelings of spite towards 3D. In my case, the one I fell in love with just happened to be 2D and I wouldn't have it any other way.

>>2917303
The majority of us don't actually hate all women, just the ones that embody the negative traits some women commonly tend to have. Attention-seeking in particular, nothing is worse than when you're having a decent discussion and some grill comes along trying to hook with or get their attention fix from thirsty faggots. That's what causes a lot of the knee-jerk reactions that can be mistaken for misogyny.

>>2917308
>they don't understand our lives because they don't face the same amount of abuse
Who's to say men and women don't deal with the same amount of bullshit. Sure, women might experience it to different degrees in different ways, but saying they have to face more bullshit in every single case is ridiculous. It's not a fucking contest of who has it worse. Makes it a lot harder to empathize with your side when you blow it out of proportion.

>>2917388
I'm saying in general, if you want people to sympathize with you, you don't blow your issues out of proportion while belittling theirs. That should be simple common sense. There are a lot of men out there that empathize with women over their own gender, white knights are dime a dozen. But if you want an ordinary guy to give a shit, the last thing you tell them is "women have it so much worse than men", because they will literally give less than zero fucks and come to dislike you in the process.

Not even saying women don't have their fair share of problems, but to say one side has it worse is clearly bullshit.

are you seriously complaining about misandry on one of the most sexist parts of the internet? i'm no sjw, but i can smell the grease coming off your fedora from here.

anyway, it's cool to see that other girls get the same weird problems that i do. ever since i was super little i've gotten really attached to fictional characters, probably because of my lonely childhood. i've crushed on characters for all my life and it's practically become a comfort thing at this point. weirdest thing is that i prefer girls irl but a good majority of my fictional crushes are male.

Kind of reads like:

Strikes me as far more misogynist than anything in this thread. It's like you can't comprehend that a woman could think you're a lunatic ass-hat out of her own free will. Most woman-hating on 4chan comes off as people taking the piss, more than actually being serious. And the few who come off as serious are just as bad as the SJW's.

When I read this I can't help but feel incredibly depressed, like actual soul crushing depression, it's so disheartening, reading stuff like this just cuts me right to my fucking core, that's throuh no fault of the poster, I assure you that.

Posts like this make me want to try and help, to be a friend, everybody needs friends, and people to talk to and share with, people to try and show the op who posted this that the world can be so much better if you let it. To try and show the good that's out there, to give a counterargument to the ideas that have been spinning around in your head, reinforcing themselves for years.

Then I come to the crushing realization that I can't help, and that the fight is futile and everything is shit, and that I can't help everyone, however much I want to.

Well, I'm the same as many of you. 23, never had romantic or sexual contact with the opposite sex. But I don't hate men. In fact, I associate with many nerdy males and I don't know if it's just they aren't the bitter kind of nerds you see in the internet a lot, but I think they're all perfectly acceptable human beings. Or maybe I'm just giving too much credit to all the people I meet, I dunno. Anyway, my problem doesn't have to do with the opposite sex, but how I see myself. I just really hate being feminine and even though it isn't strictly related to that, I couldn't bring myself to date a guy even if I wanted to. (Which I don't. I think.) Anyway, I like to think that while hateful and bitter people do exist, most nerdy people are actually really nice and would treat their partners well in a relationship. Normalfags might be a different story. I wouldn't know, though. Either way, I've found that assuming a pre-positive stance towards people makes them react favorably. Negativity and a closed mind never helped anyone.

The reason I can't go near 3d men is because I have a very specific type. Since I guess I could be called a tom boy I like rather effeminate men. It's really difficult to find men for me that fit that category who aren't batting for the same team. I don't mean effeminate as in flamboyant I mean I guess .. A tomgirl!? ( not sure the term)

I am entirely focused on my studies, and would have to set this aside if i were to engage in a deeper, more time-consuming relationship. i've never really wanted friendships, in the way most people mean them. i very strongly value every moment of my freedom. i love everyone in general, though, but don't feel it necessary to attach myself to them to love them.
in terms of romantic attachment, i'm asexual, and have noticed i'm much more [platonically] attached to certain personality traits, (wisdom, genius, reclusion, etc.) which, in force, i notice very rarely (never, really) in the brief, day-to-day contacts i'm accustomed to
i'm happy with things exactly as they are. there are a few fictional characters i've taken a shine to, and have fun reading about. i'm glad i haven't found an equivalent in the real world, because even if i forged a bond, this would endanger my rigorous academic goals. cheers, fellows.

I've been crushing on fictional characters since as far back as I can remember. I had my first husbando when I was 11, and he's still one of my absolute favorites to this day. If anything, it's learning to like 3D that took some time and effort. 3Ds don't go on grand adventures very much afterall, and skeletons in their closets generally revolve around very boring things like academics, jobs, or romance.

That said, I'm surprisingly very much a normalfag. Not the normalfaggiest, but I have friends, relationships, pay attention to fashion, etc. I don't have much issue with 3D guys either. Lots of people are scummy, guys don't have the monopoly on giving me bad experiences.

If I have to give a reason why I think by and large 2D>3D, it's definitely because I'm one seriously lazy motherfucker. Interacting with 2D takes, like, zero effort. I don't need to listen, be considerate, be available, blahblahblah, and I can swap them around as much as I want to without somebody screaming in my ears about my being an unfaithful bitch. I can put 2D in all manners of degrading and and just plain cruel situations to get my jollies off without worrying about hospital bills or jail time. I don't have to worry about jailbaits, no such thing as too young. I can be as superficial as I want to, because inks won't cry when you primarily like them because they're a pretty young thing, and that you'd dump them at the first sign of needing shaving.

...re-reading that, maybe it's more that I like 2D because I don't have to bother about being a good person with them. Eh, I'm okay with that too.

I've dated men before, and one really long relationship, but I've never felt anything for any of them. I'd rather be alone. 2D is nice. They're more "real" than real people, and don't come with the myriad of issues people do. I'll date men, but i'm not getting emotionally invested in any.

Well, you're on /cm/ so I think it's a given that there a decent number of folks like that here. I'm also one of them, haven't been interested in a real person since middle school. I'm actually pretty terrified of physical intimacy and jump when people brush against me and stuff. Despite that I don't really have an issue with men or women. I mean I don't have any close male friends, per se, but I also get along with most guys okay even if I never get close to them. I think it's more of an issue with me being conventionally unattractive and having bad social skills, since I only have a couple of people I could even call friends in the first place.

personally i've learned that spending time alone, while occasionally lonely, can be a very valuable experience. it gives you more time to accept the things you like instead of tailoring them to suit someone else's expectations, because nobody's there to judge you.

in any case, forcing yourself into a real relationship out of desperation is never a good idea. it's not fair to you or him, and has been known to heavily correlate to abusive relationships. it's the reason many people say to build up your self esteem before seeking a relationship; there's a difference between love and codependence.

>Your west cartoon husbando?
Don't have one.

I probably wouldn't count him as a husbando if I had one.

Envy from Fullmetal Alchemist. Perfect blend of dorky and sadistic.

>Do you make tribute to your husbandos?(fanfics, fanart, signatures on your blog/forum account, weeby stuff)
Fanart. I have a couple fanfic ideas but I've never been much of a writer, fanfic or otherwise.
>Do you have a special homo couple with two of your husbandos? (match made in heaven)
OTPs, you mean? I'm kind of into Ed/Envy, which is weird for me because it has a lot of things that normally turn me away from ships (age gap/underage, technically related, they hate each other in canon)
>How obsessed have you got about them bishies? (embarrassing stories if you can pls)
My previous husbando was Kurama from Yu Yu Hakusho. I used to (badly) draw soft core porn of him and myself and showed it off to friends. In my defense, their responses were hilarious. I was about 14 at this time.
>How many merch do you have of your husbando?
Not much beyond a couple manga volumes, but I intend to change that with a con visit two weeks from now.

Kise Ryota, he's too cute for words.

Kaito from Vocaloid, I guess? either way, I love the guy.

Aside from shipping said characters (except tintin) and using their pictures as signatures in forums and personal wallpaper, I don't show my obsession too much, and the ones who only knows about this kind of thing are my siblings. My friends doesn't really know that I'm into anime and manga in the first place though, and I prefer that way.

A few weeks forward to that we were walking around the mall and I couldn't help but notice this sailor moon T-shirt. I asked him if it wasn't weird seeing something like that in a store.
"Yeah, you usually see that kind of stuff in the kid's departament."
-"...But adults buy that stuff too you know?, fans of the show, people who like japanese animation..."
"Really?, I don't know. I've never really know much about these things. The few people I've known who like it are not older than 13...It's kind of weird to spend money on that, but to each his own."

Hey OP,

19/M/Bi here

I believe my love for 2d male characters is down to the struggle I have in real life finding somebody that compares.

All I want is somebody soft and cute to do squishy things with, I am not even that sexually driven.

All people out there looking for someone, don't give up faith!
>>
I'd say that I like me some 2D husbandos partly because there are pretty much no dudes IRL who are cute, earnest, easily flustered moeblobs. Sure, /a/ wishes they were, but we all know they're a bunch of self-loathing nihilistic misanthropes who can only long for the distant days when they could have passed as a cute girl.

Do aromantic/asexul crushes count? Having such crushes on quite terrible and very fictional people is kinda my thing. I don't know if I really have a favourite trope or a pattern of some sort though.
>>
>>2914173
I have a fiance but I still legitimately and really experience feelings of love/attraction toward fictional characters.

Oh, and I'm polyamorous so I have side relationships if I feel like it. So I guess TL:DR: I think there's many things to appreciate about both 2D and 3D.

I think this is a pretty common feeling by the way, and it's why a lot of people get head over heels for celebrities and other such people they'll never meet:

This post has made me realize there's actually a lot of girls like me out there, it seems.

I'm also a 24 year old girl that has had barely no romantic or sexual contact with guys (I say barely because I have dated a couple of friends who had crushes on me for a short time, and we did some lewd things, but there wasn't any penetration, so still a virgin), and my reason for that basically the way I look too.

Due to a bunch of things that happened when I was younger and I won't say because it'll get long, I became extremely self conscious, convinced I look nothing sort of hideous.

Nowadays I'm a lot better and can even sound like a normal person a good part of the time, but despite knowing that I changed a lot and having had a bunch of guys (and some girls) find me attractive, I'm still unable to find myself anything but horrible and ridiculous no matter what, and it's rooted itself so deep into my behavior that I avoid doing a lot of things because "only pretty girls are are allowed to do that". It's come to a point where I hate myself so much, I dislike anything that I make myself as well.

And that's also what stops me from having a relationship. I've never fallen in love, so there's that too, but I could try to date a guy who likes me anyway... I don't because I feel it's not right for "someone like me" to be in a relationship. I feel ashamed of talking about my sexual preferences, but not because sex is a shameful thing, just because someone like me isn't allowed to be sexual at all.
I don't fall in love with fictional characters, but I do sometimes fantasize with them. But generally, to me, it's not about creating an ideal of the other person, but about creating a fictional version of me that can be with that person without feeling wrong.

Like >>2926292 said, you deserve a nice big hug. Sharing your sentiments big time, though. For me, it gets to the point where it's even hard for me to have even a 2D crush. If I'm daydreaming and whatnot, it's usually just some sort of a shipping, I feel awkward and embarrassed trying to self-insert.

> be 10

> always extremely suspicious of adult 3D men in general

I'm actually pretty normal if you add in some financial problems and depression. Only a couple of months ago I was NEET bordering on hikki. Wasn't suicidal but lost all motivation to do anything productive. During that time, I turned to 2D guys.

I've always been into fictional guys when most girls were into whoever was the current Hollywood heartthrob. But it wasn't until those NEET days that I had fantasies about them everyday.

The thing is 2D guys can never really hurt me and I'm just not ready for a 3D guy. I have tons of baggage and problems with physical touching. Compounded by lack of money and transportation. Even if a guy was willing to take it snail's pace slow and meet me and pay for everything, I would feel bad for it. I don't like owing people and don't want them to hold any expectations. And if I were to date them seriously, I can't help but think in the back of my mind that it's only about time they leave since I can't get my shit together.

While probably ultimately destructive in end, I feel very happy with 2D guys right now. 3D guys just disappoint me right now. I don't hate guys, but I really sympathize with why others might. We're shaped a lot by our experiences and environment.

>feel this way since I was younger

All that work to get this far and it's a nightmare of emotion. And I'm actually physically deformed so I wonder just why I'm even bothering entertaining these thoughts.

>i only fell in love with some 3D and only getting hurt a lot
I was like this at high school, only liking 2D guys but after 18 i discovered goth fashion, dressing myself like this and also falling in love with goth guys (not dating them, only fangirling about some artists).After i discovered visual kei and the same shit happened, but i left the vk fandom because when i was a big vk fangirl i had a good friend that i loved so much, even *le gasp* somewhat thinking to fall in love with her. But we broke up, i missed her a lot and my heart was so broken i also hated vk and the anime she liked. Now, i love again 2D boys but i create my own characters, dreaming of having a 3D boy like these i have created in my mind, but is really hard because i have huge trust issues and intimacy anxiety too i think. Instead with 2D animu boys i would never be hurt and they would never abuse me because they are as i want. I'm still not that ready to date a 3D guy.
My latest anime husbando is Uta from Tokyo Ghoul and i would like so much to have a 3D with his haircut and clothing style. But i'm just happy with my 2D Uta now.

Anon, it doesn't matter if you are beautiful or ugly. If you have been under these situations you will always feel insecure and like a shit. I'm not that much stunning beautiful but i receive lots of compliments from my friends or guys too but finding a good partner when you have only found unsuitable or abusive people in the past make you feel upset and lose also interest to find anyone. There are many very beautiful model like people and also popular but still they feel really insecure and they hate themselves and also struggle to go into real relationships.

You have a point about looks. I was questioning more about the insecurity thing though; looks was just a lazy generalization, sorry. Plenty of girls being very insecure about their looks and all that.

What I meant is more something like, would the girls in this thread would still be into 2D is they're not insecure, whatever their source of insecurity is? If they think they're hot shit and worth their weight in gold, would they still have husbandos?

Are there well adjusted confident happy girls who are wholeheartedly into this hobby? Because this thread seems to say otherwise.

I would, because I don't consider 2D to be something I lower myself to out of insecurity or because I'm too lazy to get off my ass and work towards a real relationship. I fell in love with my husbando because I truly admire everything about him, and can't see myself with anyone else. Not everyone here has a waifu/husbando because of self-loathing or desperation. It's fucking disgusting that some people don't truly appreciate the ones they claim to love so much, for who they really are.

Funny, that's exactly the attitude that drives people into imaginary husbands in the first place because it's abusive and causes mental damage.

What will people think if I try to date them? What will they think if I'm imperfect? What will they think? Such things are internalized over time if you're judged harshly. Eventually you are alienated and question your own right to be human.

Since you value appearance over all else you contribute in your own way to this abuse. It's predictable for someone like you to find this kind of conversation and lash out.

>Men cheat, so much, so casually.
>that's not true because women get far more chances to cheat than men

There's no clear data on wether this is true or not. One survey came up with 15% men and 9% women cheating within 1 year. But in all surveys relating to sex, men exaggerate and women underplay.

It's possible that more men cheat, because men tend to be older than women in relationships, and the older you are, more likely you have a partner I.e. older married man cheats with younger single woman. At the end of the day, it takes 2 to tango.

Women don't generally pursue casual sex n the same way men do because they are more selective and cautious with their partners. A woman has to work out if they are dangerous or nice people. Going to bed with a man is a position of vulnerability as ON THE WHOLE the man is stronger than the woman.

Why blame women for not wanting sex in the same way? It's just biology. They don't owe you anything. You wish you could just advertise yourself in street for casual sex. Well, imagine you don't want sex with a total fucking stranger, and you are constantly propositioned by people bigger and stronger than you who won't leave you alone.

With all these characters and animes that project this incredibly shota theme its bitter sweet to the point where its almost depressing.

Iv fallen in love with this fucker right here, again bitter/sweet until VR reality comes out or the former

Offer to watch something to ease him into it, maybe start with western liveaction superhero movies, then their cartoons (justice league is great), then go to something like Princess Mononoke or SnK or something a guy would like. Or just start with the lattermost suggestion. Something very popular but that a normalfag would be okay with. Nothing like NHK or Steins Gate that are targeted to otaku. Very boyish and normalfag friendly. Or Psycho Pass might be good.

And take down your weeb material. No one likes a messy room with a bunch of posters and figs and crap, especially if it's yaoi because he'll be weirded out and nope on out of there. I mean, you wouldn't leave a dildo laying out, would you? Put that away.

Fictional people are just a lot more appealing than real people because they're specifically designed to be appealing and I don't care enough about real life companionship to overlook irl guys' flaws instead of daydreaming about husbandos

I had a dream where len beat me up

I have a committed gf who's smart and kind and motivated and really sexually adventurous/generous basically all the stuff you could ask for...

And yet I'm still not over Shinji. I think about him at night (I don't live with my gf) and get chills. I close my eyes and think about his lips whispering in my ear, I think about our hands touching, I think about kissing his neck and his soft shoulders, and his perfect skin. And of course I think about getting him off and hearing him and seeing him climax, feeling him throb in my mouth while I look up at him in throes of ecstasy jfjsiwjsjdhrhehs it makes me shiver just now writing it. Then sometimes I remember his voice actually comes from a Japanese woman who was paid to pretend to be him and it gets really weird so I talk to my gf about real life shit for a while and try to forget.

She has no idea I fantasize about a 14 year old Japanese boy from 1997 at night

War has always been the great wisdom of all spirits who have become too introspective, too profound; even in a wound there is the power to heal. A maxim, the origin of which I withhold from scholarly curiosity, has long been my motto:

Increscunt animi, virescit volnere virtus.

["The spirits increase, vigor grows through a wound."]

I know this feel

I'm "getting old" in that I'm merely not a shota anymore, and it HURTS, you know what I mean?
>>
>>2932931
my friend told me his son told him he wanted to be "shota"

Similarly I'm 6'5" but still like ss and shota BL. I try to self insert but then I remember these people are about as tall as my belly button

Shinji is officially 5'1" but I imagine him nearly as tall as me, or I guess I imagine myself a lot smaller

Have you ever been so in love with a fictional character that you can't even look at picture of him without feeling weird or embarrassed or shy? Maybe its different because its a character that is played by a real person but goddamnit, I'm madly in love with 10.

Also we need a dr. who thread on this board
>>
>>2933398
i actually don't get this

wouldn't you just say you have a crush on David Tennant? I mean, when you watch 10 on-screen you're literally looking at David Tennant.
>>
>>2933402
I don't think its that though. Fuck I don't know. I can look at Tennant as Tennant and not be moved. Put him in pinstripes and....
>>
>>2933403
Well pinstripes are just hella sexy.

I dunno though I never watched the show

OP, that's more than normal. Come back when you're in love with your OWN character, haha.

E.G. Noiz from DMMD.
:(
>>
>>2933485
He's not that bitter/isolated, though. I mean, he's the first one to kiss Aoba and doesn't even make a big deal out of it.

>multiple husbandos.
Absolutely disgusting.

Hazama from Blazblue for five years and counting.
>>
>>2933513
Did you even read the story? :(
He was isolated as a child and everyone hated him. Eventually he couldn't feel pain and he would get in fights with everyone because he couldn't understand them and they don't understand him. His parents then neglected him making everything worse.
He was an outcast because he was misunderstood and nobody tried to help him...
>>
>>2933398
I get the same thing when I see my husbando, especially in the games he's in. I have to pause when he shows up since I get too overwhelmed

Yeah, I guess, but it's still not as tragic as Mink's route, and I don't even like Mink.
>>
>>2934609
Holy shit I hate mink. Like I love dominance and all but not like that...
>>
>>2933575
Fuck off

>>2914173
2D is the only way I can feel romantic or sexual attraction too, OP. Almost three years with my husbando now. I don't want anybody else. He's everything.
