/ot/ - off-topic

Topic I've always been interested in just because of how strange it sounds on the surface to normies, but how it can suddenly happen to so many people (including yours truly).

Convo starters:
>Have you ever been in a parasocial relationship with a public figure? If so, who?
>Why do you think you fell into one with that person? More generally: what kind of situation do you think people are in when they develop a parasocial relationship?
>How did you act during that time? What's a particularly wild story you have from that time?
>How did you recover from it? Do you still consume content from that figure?

Mods tell me if this is better in /g/ kek(>>>/g/)
