I feel the opposite. It seems kind of sweet to me, like they must really care about the person.

Two equally irrational opinions I guess.

(Anonymous) 2015-09-12 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
not OP

I don't find those two opinions necessarily mutually exclusive-- the crush might really care about the person who is using them for money.

This depends entirely on the exact nature of your feelings and on how strong they are. As long as you don't feel the need to stalk your crush to see if they've been taken advantage of or to write hate mail to their partner, as long as you don't think about this obsessively as you go through your day, you're fine. Crushes (and human emotions in general) work in weird ways.

And, like, it's perfectly normal to worry a little about this or that aspect of your crush's life? The fact that they're a celeb changes nothing.

Exactly. I mean, I have a weird crush on the Property Brothers (the only reason I watch the show, it's like Joey Tribiani and Baywatch), and if they're walking around with a pretty woman I always go "GET AWAY FROM MY MAN!" :P But I don't... actually mean it. It's a joke. I know this is a bit different from OP's case, since she does worry about the celebs being used, just saying you're allowed.

These are my feelings. I think weird stuff like that about my crushes sometimes, too, celebs or not. Basically, I just want them to be happy and well.

And if it's a celebrity crush, considering the way Hollywood can mess people up or how warped relationships there can be, it's natural to want to hope that your favorite celebrity can escape some, if not all, of that mess and turn out okay. I certainly much prefer seeing my favorite celebrities in the news for good reasons instead of some trashy tabloid crap or criminal reasons, y'know?

But you don't have a problem with Matt Damon's adorable wife, right? Right??

(Anonymous) 2015-09-12 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Hehe, I know that feeling. Anytime I do hear something about the women the celebrities I like have dated or are married to, I wind up liking them a lot, too :D. It's hard to feel any petty jealousy or whatever towards them 'cause they seem just as cool as the celebrities I like :p!

(Anonymous) 2015-09-12 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
SA--yeah, I like to believe the best, so I end up being kind of sentimental about my crushes and their SOs. And am all sad if things don't work out.

(Anonymous) 2015-09-13 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
I totally understand that, yeah. I know Hollywood/the celebrity world is what it is in general, but there are still some couples I'm genuinely surprised/sad to hear broke up all the same.

Yes.

It's obsessive, and creepy, and understandable.

(Anonymous) 2015-09-13 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
I think your worry is weird. *You're* not in a relationship with the celeb (ex spouse, child, concerned friend, business manager, etc.) Why would you be worried about some stranger's financial well being?

(Anonymous) 2015-09-13 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
Er... compassion? Empathy? I don't feel this way about my fandom crushes, but if I hear of a total stranger who's had some bad luck, I feel sorry for them and hope things will turn out okay for them. What's so weird about that?

(Anonymous) 2015-09-14 11:26 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think it's weird. Rational? Probably not. But emotions aren't. As long as you're not doing anything like sending abusive messages or bad-mouthing your crush's romantic partners, I don't see anything wrong with it. We worry about the people we care about. That's life.
