Before 당신 read my article, let me present myself.
I'm XPGSaints and i'm a 팬 of Alpha and Omega since 2010. I'm a type of person who can be called "furry". Like the majority of people, I had a crush on a fictional character and I still have it and this, since 2010.
The main reason why I write this 기사 is because most a people who are in 사랑 with fictional character think they are not normal 또는 they think they have a mental disease and they have some questions. So i'll answer some of them and i'll help people to realise they are totaly normal. Got question? Ask in the 코멘트 ^^


Furry: A fictional character like Kate, Humphrey, etc who are 동물 like wolf. It can be bears 또는 hamsters. 당신 know what I mean :)

Furry 2: The furry fandom is a subculture interested in fictional anthropomorphic animal characters with human personalities and characteristics. Examples of anthropomorphic attributes include exhibiting human intelligence and facial expressions, the ability to speak, walk on two legs, and wear clothes. Furry fandom is also used to refer to the community of people who gather on the Internet and at conventions.

Fictional Love

This is an important step in the life. This is normal. People who are in 사랑 with a fictional character had really bad experiences in relationships and they are still hurt. This is for most of people.
When they see "the character" for the first time, they know they'll like it. They'll watch the movie again and again just to see this fictional character and boom. They 사랑 it but people may not want to accept this fact. Like me, I 사랑 Kate since 2010 and I'm not affraid of it. I'm happy with that. People have to accept 당신 the way 당신 are and your choices.


Sexualy attracted

This is another part that people will try to not talk about. Some people would like to have sexual relations with "the character". Again, if this happens, this is normal. No need to stress about that.
Now, this part is important.

Let's take Kate as an example!
There's a guy who 사랑 Kate. But he found that he would 사랑 to have sex with her. He can't because she's a fictional character. So he go and get some pictures and start masturbating. Well, some time after the exercise done, this guy will start crying and ask the sky why is he anormal. (Source: A friend, inspired mini story)

The fact is he's not. The guy is normal and he just like things that other people will never do.
People will insult him and he will may feel sad, 일 after day.
I know many many people like playing with themselves while watching a fictional character like Kate. They think they do "Bestiality" thing.

Nope. This is not bestiality. Bestiality is when 당신 사랑 having a great time ith real 동물 like 말 또는 개 in the real life.


You and the time

This is a 질문 of time. 당신 may 사랑 this character for the rest of your life 또는 당신 may choose to forget him/her.
This is all about you. So 당신 can be happy with a virtual relation and be 안전한, 안전 from tricky girls/boys 또는 당신 can choose to meet real people and keep a place for your character.
당신 and only 당신 can realy choose what will happend. After all, it's your life! :)


Depressing

This is the sadest part. We all know "this character" will never be real and we feel depressed. No need to got to a psy. He will not be that helpful. Joining 팬 sites is a way to stay away from depression. Talking about your crush will help too. I think the major reason why people don't really talk about that is the fear of being insulted/rejected/etc. The fact is this kind of morrons will alaway exist whatever 당신 do and whatever 당신 say.


Conclusion

This kind of 사랑 is normal and no one have any mental disease.
Sexual things related to 아니메 furries are not a bestiality thing. Sex with real animal is bestiality and you'll need to contact your medic.
Nobody is alone and people should talk about fictional crushes witch is a normal step in the life.
