So, basically, you're tired of listening to your friend complain about fandom, something that seems to be important to them, but apparently still less important than the things you decree to be, and instead of dealing with that yourself, you think they're the ones that need to change their behavior because you've decided it's "unhealthy" and you do not "approve".

If that's how you generally treat people, I'm surprised you even have THIS friend, tbh. You won't have many more if you keep on trying to dictate how others live their lives, that's for sure.

I think you genuinely think you're being a good friend, that's the worst part. Cutting off something that's important to your friend by basically telling them "Do not speak about this thing to me, unless you can do it in a prescribed way that's acceptable to me" is a really shitty thing to do. Deciding for someone else what's healthy for them based on typical fannish exaggeration is a shitty thing to do. Demanding a friend change to suit you IS A SHITTY THING TO DO. You're really not coming across in any of your comments here as someone who's doing this out of genuine concern. Genuine concern for someone does not post on Fandom Secrets to scoff behind their backs while acting holier than thou.

Your friend sounds as though they'd be happier if you took a step back from this relationship, honestly. And you don't want them as a friend, you want them as some sort of malleable puppet who'll only discuss things in a manner approved by you, so I can't see what either of you are getting out of it.
