I am also fond of something but I didn't reach that point of parasocial relationship. I also agree that social media is one of the reason why most young peole now are highly idolizing their biases, (shouting when the television focuses their idols, buying useless stuffs which favors to whom they fond of and worst, starting imagining that someday their biases will marry them). It makes no sense! they never think that they are part of a million fans and no one of them their biases know.
But anyway thanks for that eye opening post, hoping that many people gonna be enlighten by that.
