Plagued Waifu culture - Cartoon fuckpillows and the men (and women) who love them

[IOnceWasAWaifuFag]

That's actually something I've been wondering: how do these folks react if/when their waifus die? That's especially common for video game waifus, but I imagine a number of users have had their anime waifus bite it over the course of their canon run. Do waifuists just ignore the death, or...?

Waifuism is all delusions as is so it’s not really hard for these people to ignore the fact that their waifu is dead. A lot of times they don’t even mention it, they just go full denial mode and drill it into their heads that they’re alive somewhere. Maybe they refuse to believe their death or maybe their alive in the weird alternate universe they’ve created where they love them. So you’d be surprised that the vast majority of them aren’t really bothered by it. The ones that are have their loopholes anyway.
This knowledge comes from personal experience, I used to be bothered by this a lot. I never believed the “your waifu is alive and loves you” shit, but I refused to believe they were dead. I think that’s how a lot of these people handle it, with even more fantasies.

My fictional boyfriend might die so I should kill myself

Fictional love is much better than real people.

My imaginary friend made this for me

Do you think fictional characters have ever killed themselves in hopes of meeting their non-fictional boyfriends in the afterlife?

Like you wake up one day, and you get a fictional email from Chris Redfield:

"Hey. I don't talk to you much, but I know you and my sister were close, so I thought you should hear it from me first. Claire OD'd on benadryl last night. She left a letter, but it was pretty incoherent; something about a husband, and The Portal? I guess she was too high to think straight when she wrote it. Barry, Rebecca, Leon, and I will be holding a service for Claire this Sunday; I know it won't be possible for you to show up on account of us living in a video game world, but if you can imagine yourself here with us, I know it would mean a lot to Claire."

I could see someone writing a really pretentious postmodern story about that concept and winning all sorts of awards.

Reminds me of the Neil Degrasse Tyson quote of "religion is an ever receding pocket of scientific ignorance". Essentially, at one point we had many other gods and supernatural explanations for why the world is the way it is, like Zeus caused lightning, Poseidon was responsible for the tides and so on. But as we gathered information about the world around us we came to realize that those occurrences had a scientific basis: It's part of the reason why there aren't many practitioners of Ancient Greek religion anymore.

So what have religious leaders and theologians decided to do? They push their fictional entities to different domains that aren't measurable or directly observable (in the case of waifuism: multiverse theory), in an attempt to make them as abstract, metaphysical and, ultimately, as intangible as possible. Why is this? Because although it can now no longer be proven, it can also no longer be disproven.

Waifuists rely heavily on this Schrödinger logic as copium. Even as they consciously state and acknowledge what the facts are regarding their "SO", in their minds they still entertain the idea of the ideal being the case (I.E going to heaven and having sky daddy make their RE character real), thus never completely coming to terms with the truth.

they should be happy they can't get legally married, if the waifus were ever real they'd probably divorce and collect alimony just off the basis of the food they make, let alone the life they lead

Actually, there are people who marry their waifus...

 

[Autistic AT-ST]

So do they actually consider it cheating on their waifus when they attempt to practice imaginary polygamy?
What are some of the mental gymnastics they do with that?

Probably broke their spines doing it and it’s inflated with the spinal fluid

I wonder if they care that the waifus they love in this case would ditch them once they found out about their yuri obsession, only to find out that the waifus are into yuri themselves.

Why are so many of them like this? Le cheating?

 

[Lyra Plushie]

A couple guesses:

• unquestionable worship of the rules since the mods apparently ban at the slightest hint you are "cheating" on your waifu (according to what ex-waifuists seem to say, at least)
• a really poor understanding of sex (i think this is probably most likely, with the common view of sex being sinful and wrong)
• community stigma (everyone else says it's cheating and wrong, so it must be)

Imsuperswaggy is now posting on boards for real relationships. FYI this is the waifuist on the last page that was angry with their mother for not understanding their imagined breakup

Seems that Niqua now has now made her blog members only or something. Who is going to be deemed worthy of a log in considering she flounced from the waifu community because no one cares that she's black?

How do you make a fictional character blush? Do you like... Imagine them blushing?
