Today, my mother felt the need to remind me not to fall in love with a fictional character. After laughing and reassuring her that I knew the difference between fiction and reality, she replied, "You know, honey, sometimes I'm not so sure." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to warn my wife not to kill her insane mother. I was serious. FML
Today, my mother and I were watching a movie. She got up to go to bed, and I blurted out, "Please don't leave me." Her response: "You really need a boyfriend." FML
Today, my mom told me my relationship is a joke, because teenagers don't understand the meaning of relationships and commitment. I couldn't help but remind her how she's divorced three separate men to date. She hit me over the head so hard that snot flew out of my nose. FML
Today, I told my mom I was going out to hang out with some friends. She looked me dead in the eye and said, "Don't lie to me." FML
Today, I finally thought that my mother was okay with me being a lesbian. Then, over dinner, she turns to me and says, "So, do you still think you like girls, or are you going to start being normal again?" FML
Today, my mom asked if I was seeing anyone. I launched into a description of my girlfriend, only for her to interrupt, saying that she meant a therapist, and the fact that I'd just made up a relationship was further proof that I needed one. I really do have a girlfriend. FML
Today, I told my mom I loved her and she asked if I was going to kill myself. FML
Today, my mom once again told me that I'm too young and immature to get married, and that I don't know what love is. I'm 29, have a successful career, own my own home, and am financially stable. FML
Today, I made a joke about having a wedding to my mom and she told me not to joke about something that will probably never happen. FML
Today, the girl I've been dating for several months, and fallen in love with, said "We're just friends, right? My mom thinks I'm leading you on." FML

That doesn't necessarily make her a weaboo, though A fictional character could be played by a real actor, for example, like someone from Supernatural, etc.

You can have your love for characters while having a real life(as well as love life) as well.

I'd like to think that being able to crush on fictional characters shows a healthy amount of imagination. It's the obsession that's the unhealthy part.

That's a sign a book is really compelling if it can actually make you feel real feelings towards the characters. Don't want to take it too far but having a crush on a fictional character is not that big a deal.

It would be hilarious if your mom was very religious and always talking about Jesus.

I used to and still do have a monster crush on Dimitry from 20th Century Fox's Anastasia!
