Especially if it Makes Them Happy

:iconreadplz::iconreadplz::iconreadplz:

I been noticing certain stamps about this. Example of one claiming it's "crazy" to do this maybe.
I'm sorry, but how?
What's so wrong with believing that maybe they could be there in spirituality, or so? Nobody actually knows this. If you call that crazy (for having some kind of 'faith' (is this the right word?)), then you might as well call someone "crazy" for believing in any forms of spirituality then maybe.

HOWEVER

We shouldn't be calling something it's self crazy unless that something it's self can cause problems. Real problems.
And with this, there can possibly be a problem.
Though, "wrong" shouldn't be used on something that doesn't involve hurting other people.


"Crazy" vs Not "Crazy"


Note: I quote "crazy" because it's more subjective, but it's a bit more understandable closer to people who has a more fair understandable reason.


"Crazy" - Example

A person who believes they are real and dating or marrying to the point that you go to restaurants, and ask "Two" (Even though there is 1 physically with the unknown of the other) and basically orders food for the 'other', etc. Controlling your life, etc.

NOT "Crazy" - Example

A person who believes they are real (often in the understandable sense of spirituality, multiverse, etc.), and whether or not he/she believes they are, goes to a restaurant, the person still asks for 'one', does not order food. Maybe "pretend" a little that this person is their, maybe believe a bit, and etc.
(EDIT 9/15/2015 I should of said "A person who believes they are real and are 'dating' or 'marrying' them. As you can do that too and still not be crazy. EDIT DONE)

Noticed the second example? It's harmless, it barely controls your life. It could 'effect' your life, but in a possible good way.
If something like this makes you happy, gives you more energy, etc. Then this is a healthy thing, as you know, what promotes health through mentality is personal to each individual.
If there are some problems you do run in, try to control it. You could make a mistake or two, but that would be like anything like for example: Going grocery shopping, but you got way too much stuff.

Encouraging Health


While it really depends.
A sane person who has a belief like that can use this for health.

Health example: If you are lost, have no one around you, you feel very alone, etc. You go crazy, then all of a sudden, you had that 'spiritual' belief of that maybe someone is there, and it's something from Star Wars. You try to engage into that belief, and what happens next? Calm comes, as you were about to lose it. But you don't anymore because of what you just did.

There is also people who are NOT attracted to humans, at all. And I believe this is one way to deal with that.

Oh interesting: Even though I have mixed opinions about that one subject, if you guys want to avoid 'bestiality' (real 100% non-human animals), then start promoting this 'dating' and 'marrying', idea, etc. to fictional characters. And that could actually prevent that further.
(EDIT 9/15/2015 - 9:46 Central - This is more about less human characters. EDIT DONE)

Other

Also no, JUST because an "official" person said this or that with a fictional character, doesn't mean the person can't use 'non-canon' beliefs, etc.
Even if the person said "they are just fiction, not real", doesn't mean the person in private can't believe that.
Scientifically, 'Copyright' owners cannot control spirituality, the multiverse, etc. And they don't have a right (or shouldn't) to monopolize someone in private. Period.
Besides, I don't think Copyright has anything to do with things like this.. Yet, Copyright is in fact a monopoly.
Also, I think Copyright was originality for money, and it had an expiration date.. and for a reason or more than two.

---

Anyway, it's not crazy to have this belief it's self. AND IT'S NOT WRONG. Morality should stay out of this. Unless it depends on how you express it, etc. Though telling people that it's "wrong".. IS wrong because it violates the Golden Rule.

While some people believe it's fine to like a character but not have any sense of it being real, or even want to, then what's the point of liking a character? If I had the believe (that actually doesn't know everything beyond, etc) of that, then it would feel useless.

-----

What about me? I won't give so much detail out, but I will admit, sometimes I do imagine that someone I like is there, etc. Maybe through the spiritual world, but it doesn't control me.
I don't do that whole limited thing with the whole restaurant example, I don't fucking complain about people making porn of "my" (Nobody owns it) favorite character, and etc.
And no: Popular belief is not fact.
Science, Experiences, Individual, Faith > Popular belief.

And also, for those who ARE in that kind of feeling, like involving people doing stuff to "your" character copy.
Consider this:
There is an infinite number of parallel universes out there, there are billions of copies of what you like.
Next time you see "your" character (Either your own OC, or a character from a show, etc.) being drawn in ways you don't like, realized it's not really "yours", but instead, it's another 'copy' from another universe.

Kinda fun to think about eh?

I totally agree with you.

People in this case are not  crazy. Maybe they're even just unsatisfied of the real life. To give an example, I am in love with one and it just helps me going through life's hardness and feel less alone. But I'm still aware he can't be here for real, but, as you said and its my case and pov as well, as long as it doesn't hurt us and that we are aware that this character isn't here and will never be (for real), it doesn't matter. So really, I thank you for doing this stamp and saying this. After all, we are just people like others: we breathe, we talk, and we fall in love and it just concern us and nobody else, as long as it doesn't overtake on our lifes. I don't understand why we need to keep it to ourselves, living in the fear that someone might discover our secret. Others should be more tolerant, and understanding. Because just like real people lovers, when we are already hurt by life itself, when people around you for instance from your family, try to disconnect you from the one you love and find comfort with, not understanding that this character is the only thing that helps you go on through your existence, it's even more hurting (I've been in this case so I know what I'm talking about).

So really, thanks again for this.
