SpaceTrash Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I wouldn't say I'm fictosexual/fictoromantic, but having ADHD and being autistic means I hyperfixate on one or two things at a time, and ever since Encanto came out, I've hyperfixated specifically on Bruno so hard it's turned into a crush! Just seeing a picture of him makes me really happy, and I've ended up drawing tons of self-insert fanart of me and him together, haha. Funnily enough, one of my friends is fictionkin with him, and he doesn't mind me constantly bothering him with questions, so that's how I manage : P I feel like the difference between how I feel and being fictosexual/fictoromantic is the fact that I know I'll most likely move on onto something else, even if I don't want to. Hyperfixations always seem to end much too quickly! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lord_Larsa Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Hey, I'm fictosexual myself, and if you guys are seeking for communities and exchange with other like minded people, I have created a Discord server but only for fictosexual adults (and adults only!), here is the link: https://discord.gg/SUnE8NxYYy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 I don't consider myself ficto but I have plenty of crushes on fictional characters - Geralt of Rivia, Carswell Thorne, Nickolai Lantsov etc. I'm a writer and I fall for every male protagonist I write about. But that's something I feel necessary to my writing - how can I expect the reader to love them if I don't? Every character a writer creates is a part of them and thus it is deeply personal whether we are conscious of it or not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nikidragon13 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I'm really interested in fictosexuality/fictoromantic at the moment, I think I might actually be fictosexual but I'm getting caught up on a few questions of science and brain chemistry cause I'm still only in my early teens, does anyone mind sharing how old they were when they started to think they might be fictosexual, even if they didn't have a word for it? And also, if those feelings lasted? Thank you so much already just for having these conversations, they've been really helpful to read and take advice from Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blasphemous_chili Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I never had a word for it until now, but I'm absolutely fictoromantic/fictosexual. I've been in love with a fictional character since I was a kid (50+ years). If he had been based on a historical person, I would have become a physicist & I'd be researching time travel. (and I HATE math) So thank you. It's nice to know I'm not the only one! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pushik Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Heyza! This thread brought me here. Is there a place to fit into and connect with other fictos? Please say yes >_> Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've created this character that I can't get enough of. Although, he is set in the future of 2040 being born in 2006. So I'm having this problem as well. Quite honestly, I thought I was alone and I'm too scared to tell any one in fear of being judged. So, no you are not alone. But does anyone have advice for what I can do?
