I think I have a weird problem.I don't think I've ever met a single real person that I've felt attracted to. Hell, never seen one IRL. I vaguely remember seeing pictures of real people online that I'm attracted to a little, but much less so than I'm about to describe.I find a lot of fictional characters, especially anime characters, extremely attractive. I know that sounds like cringe weeb shit, but something about the art style is more attractive to me than actual humans. I read somewhere that the anime artstyle is designed to activate the reward centers of the brain, so that might have something to do with it, but I'm not sure.I don't think I'm fictosexual or aroace because I genuinely want to be in a relationship with someone, but I don't know if I'll ever find any real person who I'm physically attracted to enough to date/get intimate with.What should I do?
>>34874073your brain is just fucked from looking at way too many cute fictional characters. just put yourself out there and you'll get used to seeing and appreciating humans once again. at least, this was the case in my experience.
>>34874073Turn the screenshit off and go outsideEventually you'll find some humans more attractive than other onesAnd you'll wonder if you're attractive enough for themAnd maybe at that point you can say oopsie you experienced attraction towards a real human press undo button abort

We try to make them appealing as much as possible so you buy all the merchandise associated with the character.
>>34874073You're terminally online. Give it a rest, talk to girls, get into cosplay.And stay the fuck away from discord, feminism, gays, troons etc, all of it is mindrot bullshit.
