Is this normal? (more Bob stuff)

Posted by Deneb on May 28, 2006, at 22:09:50

I went out with friends today, and while I was with them, I found myself thinking of Dr. Bob. I kept saying, "Dr. Bob, I love you Dr. Bob" under my breath. I felt comforted everytime I thought of Dr. Bob. Is this an obsessive, compulsive sort of thing? I don't find that thinking of Dr. Bob is problematic in any way... I don't *have* to think of Dr. Bob, I just like to.

I don't think that thinking about Dr. Bob like that is normal, but I don't think it's harmful. I don't think I'm harming Dr. Bob (he said it was "fine")and I'm not harming myself. As long as I don't start intruding into Dr. Bob's life, I think it's okay.

Some people probably think I'm a little weird, loving Dr. Bob so much...

I wonder why I've fixated on Dr. Bob like this? Anyone have any theories?

LOL I wonder if Dr. Bob reads the stuff I write about him? I wonder what he thinks? He knows my love is for real now that he's seen it in real life. I wonder if he understands? I wonder if he is amused by it? I wonder if anyone else has been obsessed with Dr. Bob like I am? Has anyone on Babble done this before? Am I the first and only person to love Dr. Bob like this and write about it?

Deneb did you say you were out with friends IRL today? That's a step forward and I thing thinking about Dr Bob was your way of dealing with what used to be stressful you before. Interacting in real life. From now on try to think less when with friend, IRL. Love Phillipa

I was out with two friends today Phillipa. We walked around a mall and in a small park and went to dinner together. I didn't think that thinking about Dr. Bob might be my way of coping with stressful situations, but I think you're right.

Maybe I will think about Dr. Bob less when going out with friends becomes more natural to me.

Thanks Phillipa, for the insight.
