Thank You,

Obsession



No, no, no, not that obsession!


I feel like this warning, that we all click past so fast is an important one.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that I'm addicted to FFXI or anything. (Because if I admitted I had a problem then I could fix it, and this is one problem I don't want fixed!)

But there are fanatics out there. People who take their obsessions to the extremes. They take it so far, that I worry about them.

I'm not going to say who, but someone I know is obsessed with Robert Pattinson from the movie Twilight. It's not a healthy obsession either. It seems like every other word is about him, or about the second Twilight movie. It scares me.

She is so obsessed that she added what she thought was his Myspace as her friend. Well then she became very upset when she started to realize that it's probably not his myspace. She was emotionally and physically upset about such a trivial thing.

I dunno why I'm writing about this, but yeah. What do you guys think? Is there such thing as going too far with your obsession? Can it become unhealthy? When does obsession give way to addiction?

How do you help someone with this problem without hurting them? Saying "You're obsessed with..." usually doesn't start the conversation off on a friendly note.

What happens when they don't realize that my sarcasim is actually what I want to say, but I play it off as a joke to not hurt them?

No one's life should be so controlled by another person who they've never met, and know almost nothing about.

What about you? Have you ever had a celebrity crush? Is this all that this is? A crush? Will it subside if I just leave it alone?

Anyway, More FFXI stuff to come, I'll try to get in an update this weekend sometime.
