how do i stop being so obsessed with a fictional character?
i really like a fictional character so much it hurts and i have this friend who i make stories with with that character and she's the only one who likes him as much, probably more than me. i don't want to be that way.

stop all internet activity and join a local sports team
Or anything involving the outside world. Nature walks, bird watching, geocaching, etc. Doesn't need to be anything competitive or strenuous.
too easy for the mind to wander back to fictional character with those activities.
Get your haircut while you're at it, and do some national service!
that might be taking it a little far, depending on the country
Yeh it was a joke I definitely wouldn't recommend that ANYWHERE! It's just that the original advice to which I was responding, while actually probably quite sound, had this funny kind of old man "you kids should get outside" kind of feel to it that I was riffing off and taking to extreme for fun. I hoped the "get your hair cut" part of it would make that a bit more obvious like a grumpy dad in the 60s telling the longhairs to get off their lawn. I probably didn't do enough to make this obvious and now it's coming across as sincere. Woops.
