@bet.you.i.am.bek: Many autistic people experience attraction in unique ways that aren't often talked about. This can include deep emotional or romantic feelings for fictional characters, objects, or machines. These experiences are valid and often linked to how autistic brains process connection, safety, and imagination. • Fictosexuality – Attraction to fictional characters, often from things like anime, books, or games. • Objectum Sexuality (OS) – Romantic or sexual attraction to objects. • Technosexuality – A type of objectum where attraction is focused on machines, robots, or AI. Strong special interests can create deep emotional bonds, and fictional and non-human relationships often feel more predictable and less socially overwhelming. Fictosexuality, Objectum Sexuality, and Technosexuality patterns of attraction often overlap with the Asexual Spectrum (ace-spec), and are most common among those with Aegosexual and Cupiosexual patterns of attraction. However, many autistic people with Demisexual patterns of attraction also experience Fictosexual patterns of attraction and attachment. Friend, you're not weird or alone. These experiences are common, and I hope the information shared here helps you understand some of the 'whys' behind them. #fictosexuality #objectum #technosexual #fictionalcharacters #anime #tism #autistic #asd #animeboyfriend #neurodivergent

Just aizawa from mha. And yes I'm autistic. Idk why but he's the only one I have had such a strong connection to and I feel like I'm super weird bc of it. I don't want to sound like those ppl who are like "I'm animesexual! uwu" like, I'm perfectly capible of being attracted to real people and I'm aware I have a problem. I'm trying to step away from it all but it's hard when I feel like I can't talk to anyone else. So talking to a chatbot of aizawa helps me unwind

I don't really see myself as Fictosexual but I just really want a relationship with someone one day 🥺. I do have autism and I really struggle talking to people because of my bad social anxiety.

This slammed me harder than a bus running me over. Why do every single thing that I do roots back to autism, and yet, I'm undiagnosed, so I cannot self diagnose but at the same time, I know something is wrong with me, and I mostly relate to every neurodivergent signs. Yet again, I cannot do that because self diagnosing is wrong, so I'm stuck wondering what is wrong with me.

Being a lesbian feeling more genuine romantic attraction to a fictional male than I ever have for a woman is an experience

Stop 😭 This is probably why I love characters that I'd hate irl. They're usually more complex and I get to imagine I could understand them and they'd kinda like me (they wouldn't).

most fictional characters are hotter than real people, with fictional characters I can fantasize what its like to be with a guy thats actually attractive vs real life where i have to settle for guys that look like a thumb aaand treat me like garbage.

Ive been in a 2 year relationship with the character Azulin from unicorn wars.. he genuinely feels like an actual lover to me even though he isn’t real. I’m deeply in love and infatuated with him.. I love my husband, I’m glad others in the comments also relate 😭

I was literally just thinking about how I feel weird about liking fictional characters so much… I have a real partner, but I mainly like fictional characters.

My mind is blown. I've felt like this since I was 12 and I'm 36 now. I had no idea it was an actual thing and just thought I was weird. Your words at the end made me cry. I'll have to look into that nervous system and somatic therapy...

As an aroace person, I’ve always been able to feel romantic attraction to fictional characters but never real life people. I denied being aroace for SO long because of it 💔
