I just realized something else about my "thing" for Dr. Bob, the negative reactions on my part are probably transference but most of the positives are probably not.
There *is* evidence that he is a nice guy.
I think I want to be like him. He seems to have accomplished a lot in life and I want to accomplish a lot too. I want to make huge differences in this world...too bad I'm such a scaredy cat!
I don't understand why some people think that I want negative attention from Dr. Bob or anything like that. I like Dr. Bob as a person, I wish we could be friends.
Why do I think about Dr. Bob so much? Is it OK to think about Dr. Bob and think that he is my friend?

I think you have the right spirit, Deneb!
Real friends have a relationship of give and take, though. Since that is not possible in this particular situation, you can not expect anything in return from him.
I think you are fine in assuming he's a nice guy, after all he lets us come here to play! ;~}
Have you ever considered volunteering your time with people who may be in a position to need/want friends? Nursing homes are full of individuals whose minds may be fine, but bodies are not. They LOVE to have visitors, get hugs, hold hands, talk, have someone be nice to them--especially younger visitors. It would give you and some very lucky person something to look forward to. Maybe Hammy could go visit with you!
You seem like you have so much to give others and that you would really like a friend IRL. I bet you would be a fantastic friend!

I was just wondering, is my "obsession" with Dr. Bob part of my insanity?
How come other people don't have this problem? Has there ever been anyone with my problem before? Is it even a "problem"?
Do you think Dr. Bob understands? Maybe he thinks I'm nuts. Do you think he would mind if I went to the Babble Party next year? Would it make him very uncomfortable?
Do you think that Dr. Bob will now make a conscious effort to avoid any and all interaction with me?
I hope he isn't afraid of me or anything like that. I'm really harmless. Do you think he's talking about me behind my back? Do you think he's just waiting for me to make the wrong move and then he's going to have the police arrest me? I don't want to go to jail, I can't survive in jail. I know I can't. :-(

Deneb, you're starting to sound paranoid. Maybe the resperidol is a very good thing. I'm not criticizing you but have you studied today? Fondly, Phillipa

> Deneb, you're starting to sound paranoid.
I don't think it's paranoia because I think I know it's paranoia, so that means that it is NOT paranoia. Just like how if one thinks one is insane, that mean one is not insane.
>I'm not criticizing you but have you studied today?
No, I haven't studied today. :-(
I went to my classes but then I decided to go home instead of study at the computer lab. I went home and I started reading all this transference stuff. My MP3 player also broke because I dropped it. :-( Now I have to phone them and have them fix it. Good thing there is still a warranty on it. There is also something wrong with one of Hammie's eyes. :-( It has been closed all day long.I really need to study. I have two tests on Oct. 4. I must study! Aaahh! I'm wasting so much time...it's horrible! I wanted to go to sleep again today, but I wasn't sleepy or tired. I didn't sleep though...phew! OMG, I gotta freaking study!

I find it a little different, yes, BUT I wonder if it's more like a "groupie" type of thing.
I don't mean this disrespectfully at all towards you, but you know how groupies hang around just wanting to be near the guys on stage? Could it be the same type of obsession?
Dr. Bob is the big cheese around here.. he's the King of Babbleland. He's the "celebrity". Maybe that's why you are so fascinated with him.
OR... it could just be that lovely hat he's wearing in that picture. LOL
