Most self-shippers know that our f/os aren't real. Most of us simply chill with our self-insert fic, art, collecting things that make us think of our f/o, imagining what they would say to us in a scenario, etc.
Exactly what other fans do with canon characters (While often blatantly projecting onto them in the process. Just look at how many slash fics will change the personality of the less overtly "masculine" guy. At least we're being honest about it.)
There are some people who believe in things like afterlife/reincarnation with our f/o, and Tulpas, but there are extremists in every online community. For a site that's supposedly more chill for fandommers than mainsteam socials, there's an odd hate-boner over yumes specifically over here.
It's like how normie-aligned fandom people will hear the term "fanfiction writer", and immediately think of twelve-year olds writing erotica with offensive gay stereotypes and threatening to kill each other over morally incorrect/socially injust ships.
That's the vibe I get from people constantly bringing up Snapewives in any post referencing self-ships.
I have a feeling the former is exactly the kind of thing that OP would balk at.
