Have you heard of this?

Objectophilia

My first impression is one of sadness. It is fascinating, of course, but I am heartbroken for this person. I've heard of objectophilia, but always imagined the object of desire to be something smallish. This is the first time I've seen a real person afflicted by the dysfunction. She is obviously intelligent and it makes me so sad to see her passion and love wasted on an inanimate object. It would be easy to just get completely creeped out by it and try not to think about it, but she is so interesting that I am compelled to watch again. Most of us here can understand being drawn to a place (Disneyland or WDW) and the sights and smells there. Also, many of us are captivated by celebrities or people we can never meet. Is this so different? If it pleases her, in spite of it being so far outside the expected norms, who am I to judge? But do you think she can truly be fulfilled by this relationship? I tend to think not, since she does transfer her affection to a new object of desire after seven years or so. But then, that's longer than many relationships between human beings, so perhaps she is getting her needs met. She describes her love(r?) as noble, proud and strong; which are words I'd more often use to describe a person. The affection certainly looks genuine.

Okay, I just watched it again, and to be perfectly honest, I did laugh when she said "I love him for the narrowness of his jibs." And the whole getting down on the ground, wallowing in the grease and smelling it (him) was disturbing. Sigh. It seems worse to me than unrequited love, or loving someone who is cold and has no emotional capacity for intimacy. Sad too, when she said she loves him not in a fetish way, but in a sexual way; that she loves him for a mate. Huh. Does she really see the ride as a potential life partner? Fascinating. Sad and fascinating.
