Parasocial Relationships

After learning about parasocial relationships in class I realized that everyone else in my life is delusional. The rapper, J. Cole and I have been in an on-again, off-again relationship for roughly 3 1/2 years now. We met when I first heard the song “Beautiful Bliss” by Wale featuring Melanie Fiona. His words were so genuine and from then on we were inseparable!
Many people don’t believe in our love partly because he has been photoed out with some woman on red carpets and in public numerous times. I understand that he cheats me. He’s a rapper! But he truly does care for and love me! He just has a commitment issue and I love him enough to stick it out to the end.


Now obviously, I’m delusional! But this is the perfect example of a parasocial relationship. J. Cole does not even know I exist, but in my head, were together and happy! I do tell people of mine and J. Cole’s marriage, but I know how crazy it sounds. All of my friends know it is a joke....well, for now.
