Have you ever crushed on a fictional character?

Awesome question. I have so many stories that I haven't finished writing because I've been protecting my characters from getting hurt or changing into someone I don't like anymore.

I am 24. Partially I think I was unaware of how long the books had been out. I never read them or really talked to many people who did.

Also, though, I am just amazed at how quickly people your age experience growth.

Aw, the thank button is missing so I have to quote you instead. I think you are awesome. I love INFPs.

I personally loved to make my characters go through things...I liked the poignant emotion of it.

I have a whole harem of fictional characters that I'm crushing on and I don't see it shrinking anytime soon...

Not INFP, but I wanted to throw that out there. ._.

I am really curious about how the harem is organized and used, but it seems too personal to get in to in detail. Mostly I just wonder if your relationships with them are as in depth as ours often are.

It's okay that ou are not. INTP and INFP seem to share a lot of things anyhow.

Your avatar makes me seriously hungry.

No organization at all. When I'm in the mood for Character A, I will daydream about A for a while, maybe switch to Character B if I feel like it. Or I'll pair A and B together and just...watch. They're mine to abuse, basically. :D

Concerning depth, I guess that not all of the relationships I form with a character are really deep--a very select few are constantly in my head and involved in my everyday daydreams. It's as if they're my best friends/lovers and living life with me instead of just being there. I don't know if that made sense. Or even if I explained it correctly.

Crap, now I'm hungry too.

Nono, I think it makes sense. The non-favorites you pull up as needed, but the favorites are present to the extent that a daydream can be. I used to have some that felt present in the world, others who watched kind of through me while in their world, and others who stayed in their own worlds entirely. I was really careful about not mixing them. I had complex plots with all of them and I had to invent devices that moved me between each of their worlds. I often felt bad for being unfaithful. I think I eventually had different personas of myself to deal with the different characters, a bunch of little realities operating out of my head.

Sorry! My eggs are about to be delicious!

Ian O'Shea from the Host is pretty much my dream guy...
I wonder if it has to do with the main character Wanda being a possible INFP.
