This idea applies to real people as well since there's a different version that exists inside of everybody's head that's seperate from the "real" version. It's just a hypothetical, philosophical thing. There's only practical application of this with fictional characters.

If I believe in Jesus Christ I would not get mad if someone else believes in him, but probably will befriend him (considering all sectary violence in the history of christianism this is an awful example, actually).
Same with 2D characters. Our love is unidirectional and those characters aren't limited by time or physicality.
I think being jealous in this cases only happens because someone is trying to copy 3DPD mechanisms into 2D (because they wish to be like one of them?). In 3DPD "love" means posession and exclusivity, mostly because men wants to spread their genes only and not end caring of someone else progeny without knowing it and women need a stable provider.
So applying this biological motivated behavior into 2D is, at the end, nothing more than irrational. Same with gay marriage, for example.

Personally, I wouldn't really mind either. My Kisaragi =/= someone else's Kisaragi.

Like >>21483 said, everyone has their own personal interpretation of fictional and real people. However most of the time there is enough common canon ground to consider all these interpretations a single character/person. However Vocaloids take it a step further, and there is no canon, or rather whatever you believe fits most is the canon.
I can completely relate to what Kondo is saying here. As I met Miku and kept listening to her songs I formed my own interpretation of her character based on the songs I listened to. The interpretation I eventually fell in love with. But when I interact with other people who are in love her, I can see that they have completely different interpretation of her. My Miku might be a cute, sweet dandere, but there is that guy with tomboy Miku or mature idol super start Miku. I just can't feel jealous towards them because it's like different character, there is no "plane" on which we could compete. I found that pretty much every Mikufag thinks this way, but I guess this is the result of specific Miku's nature. I think it's natural to get jealous over sharing your waifu under other circumstances.

Not my waifu, but a certain cute character.
It works? Yes, somehow, maybe.
But what do you expect to achieve?
If you expect your favourite anime character just coming to life, not exactly. It can be extremely difficult or relatively simple depending on the person. It's worth trying? If you have the time, sure.

to what degree are you trying to bring your waifu to life? I usually have conversations with my waifu every day, when im walking somewhere, if im eating or if im laying in bed going to sleep. I try to slowly work her in to more and more aspects of my life, and the result of this after a few months is that it now feels like I have somebody to chat with, somebody to lay with at night and to enjoy things with. Intimacy is still a bit rocky but I think its a very gradual process. You really have to commit to it

A guide I saved from a tulpa community. I would recommend it unless you're one of those "it's not technically my waifu" people.

I didn't create my waifu, but she did talk to me, its sort of how we "met" and she became my waifu. I don't consider it a tulpa per se because I didn't create it. It just happened one day. I think its possible to try and channel your waifu's "energy" in a different way than tulpamancy but it's very hard.

Part of the reason my relationship failed was because our connection was weak and life got the best of me and one day she just left.

The wording is different, but when the commandments were written, every Jew did it on saturday. It was understood to be saturday. There's no waifu sabbath, but I think some regular thinking about your waifu is just to be expected.

>>21428
>every Jew did it on saturday. It was understood to be saturday
great example of how the followers of this commandment are able to adapt and have room to adjust for their own life/circumstances, while still able to operate under this one overarching law. the way it was written is lenient and allows for different interpretation
>I think some regular thinking about your waifu is just to be expected
no no I agree, I just think that it could be worded better. another argument could be that it makes it easier for the rule to devolve into a "check-in-the-box" kind of thing, which would be a shame

>>21429
>have room to adjust for their own life/circumstances
Noooooo. This is a tad off-topic, but they were very, very particular about the timing of the sabbath and other things. Other groups just chose to mess with the weekly calendar, but the rule definitely was not made with flexibility or "other followers" in mind.

Anyway, what do you think a be a better wording would be?

Did they let you inside? Why would they do that? Isn't it still a normal school?

>>21422
It's pretty much a dedicated k-on museum tourist trap now. I don't think they use it as a school anymore.

>>21422
It's an unused elementary school and now reformed into an otaku pilgrimage site/sightseeing spot. You can see the interior of the building in google map, search for Toyosato Elementary School.

>>21421
Interesting, thanks for sharing.

she doesnt owe me anything

its not fair

its not fair that he gets to spend all his time with her
its not fair he got spirited away to another world to live with her
its not fair that she dotes on him
its not fair that they live under the same roof and can wake up and see each other
its not fair that he gets to save her
its not fair that he gets to sacrifice for her
that he gets to be her hero
its not fair that he can be so horrible to her but she'll still forgive him and talk to him
its not fair that he'll fuck up time and time again and embarrass her over and over again yet stay by her side
its not fair that he gets to ask her out on a date
that they get to have lunch together
hold hands

Maybe I shouldn't be posting this since I'm no long with my husbando, but I figured I have some things to say about it.

It was one of the biggest challenges in my relationship. It killed me even if I told myself it wasn't really the case and they didn't actually end up together(it was vague but it's still basically hinted at that they ended up together)

It still kills me inside that he is probably happier with her. It's been 2 years since I broke things off and it still hurts me to see them together. I was so jealous of the other person too, they seemed to be someone who was much better than me in every way. So even today i'm still insecure about the character he's paired with.

>>21398
No, it's good you're posting. It's not much but knowing one is not completely alone in this is better than nothing, even if the feeling of slight relief only lasts a couple of minutes.

I was never in any sort of a relationship, but I'm troubled by similar feelings.

Maybe the only way to be at peace is to be like what >>21244 and >>21247 say, but that's not for me.
I'm different and I won't ever be able to be that way.

There are characters I think about a lot but the awareness that they would never reciprocate my interest is horrible.
Even those who aren't canonically partnered or frequently shipped with anyone, I just know they would hate me. Or maybe they wouldn't even notice me enough to hate me, like people don't normally notice bugs.
Even though I never considered it to be a possibility, knowing it would be impossible for them to love me still hurts.

I think those are pajamas Prinz is in here. I really want to believe they are, because I've yet to see a picture of her in pajamas.

Only one I could find has younger Simon, although most adult Simon art has him in one of his canon outfits

I finally found a picture that unambiguously shows Prinz looking cute in PJs! This actually feels like a major find, since I was actually a little down over the fact that she didn't seem to have any.

I wish there were less, but it is what it is.

622. I was surprised at first, but then I saw others in this thread going into the thousands. I guess I can't exactly begrudge others for seeing her perfection, but at the same time I'm glad it's not any higher than that.

A day late, but happy birthday to Nagisa! Her series made a big impact on me when I first watched it years ago, and it's stuck with me since.

Happy Birthday.
Merry Christmas.

I know it might sound weird but even assuming there would ever be a mod (next to zero chance) for any game of her, I'd still fill weird "controlling her" to do things I think she wouldn't really ever do. e.g. Mod for a co-op game like Left 4 Dead.

What game is that OP?

>>21012
Pretty sure it's Custom Maid 3D 2

Thinking of making her in Elona+

I can feel where you're coming from. It's not the same circumstance, and your experience is much worse than mine, but I also lost my waifu somewhere along the way.

I felt comfort in her embrace when I was feeling sad, and I was deeply in love with her. Her smile brought me joy and happiness. I still remember her warmth and how it felt sometimes. But, one night, I had a horrible nightmare where she said that she hated me and thought I was gross, and gave me a sharp, disgusted glare that cut me to my core. I woke up in a panic, and I felt that the 'her' that was there tell me that she would never say that to me, but that vivid image haunted me and spoiled all the thoughts I had of her. I tried to get away from this by not thinking about her at all, because it hurt to remember that, but by the time I felt like I could look at her again without remembering that, she was gone. Seeing pictures of her no longer made me feel like she was there with me, and only made me remember when she was there. I couldn't feel her embrace anymore, only remember it. It was like she had disappeared from my life entirely.

I think a healthy person would say this is a good thing, but I've never quite been as happy since then, and I really miss her.

I'm really sorry you went through that. That sounds terrible. If it means anything, I also think Chihaya would never say or do such hurtful things to you. I hope you find such happiness again someday.

>>21333
Thank you. I'd like to believe so. To clarify, it wasn't Chihaya, though it was one of the 765 girls. Sorry for the confusion, but all the images I have saved of Makoto are happy and joyful and I think it would hurt me to see it posted in that context.

Seriously OP, just ignore this kind of content. It's clearly not canon, it's just a lame depiction of your loved one. Think of those deep nude pictures, you put a clothed person there and it returns a nude one, this doesn't necessarily mean that the clothed person is a whore, its image was just used in an awful way. That's the same case as yours: the image of your waifu is used, but it isn't really her doing that thing.

Think of your waifu as a concept, as an idea, not just some character from a show.
