/mai/ - Waifu

>>51531

I just view it this way: relationships don't last forever just because they happen. People break up, especially when they date young. They met in high school so it's really rare for anyone from high school to marry or stay together.

>>51533

I don't get.

By saying

>don't care about the plot

>care only about her

are you suggesting that

1) I accept that she is… you know. into. person. different. not me. But at the same time worshipping her as my idol.

2) Simply ignore whatever happened in the plot, in fact, it didn't even exist, and just enjoy the dating/marriage

It's one of these two, right?

I also want to ask a broader question, that is, is waifuism in general about worshipping someone who doesn't really love you, who isn't really there, or is it fantasizing about having a perfect girl/woman always by your side who other people simply don't see?

To me it is the latter rather than the former, I always see her by my side, holding hands, sometimes hugging, talking.

When in home we do other things, from cute and romantic to funny and lewd.

Is that it?

it's neither to me. I'm just inlove with someone fictional and treat my relationship like i would if he was 3d.

That's what I meant with the second part of the question. From what the little I've seen I came to realize that some people just worship they're waifu, as if they loved their waifu, but they somehow couldn't love them back.

Still, i can't get this out of my head.

the god damn plot.

>>51535

cannon relationships happen, deal with it. Whatever it is or whoever she is into it doesn't mean she is going to love that person forever, just as >>51534 said.

You don't have to ignore it either. I said you shouldn't care about it for your own good. Waifuism in general is when people loves someone and is a one-sided relationship when the waifuist is the only one to give love. It's also learning to accept the person you love for who she is.

True, but worshiping doesn't mean loving. Think about that.

>>51541

T-that's not true.

She's always been my waifu.

Pls go.

I agree with >>51534. My waifu has a canon love interest, and I accept that she loved him before we got together (as it was a pretty important aspect of her story), but that's the past. Surely you have had crushes before her. You can love someone and accept that she has had others before you. It's a difficult pill to swallow at first, but it gets easier with time and realize that your waifu has been with you longer than she was with anybody else.

>>51535

It can be either or both. I think most of us here are in the latter camp, although there are a few in the latter camp that also explicitly say that it's fantasy and that there's no way that she'd love them back.

>True, but worshiping doesn't mean loving.

I… don't really agree with this, even though I don't worship my waifu. It's a different kind of love than those of us who view our waifu as a reciprocal romantic partner, but I don't think it's not love at all, and I think that people who are that way definitely belong here as there is a lot of overlap.

Go about your love as you would if the plot wasn't in the way.

Source material is one thing, but waifus are, without a doubt, willing to break what is "established" of them to be with us and to love us, otherwise they wouldn't be our waifus.
