Pictures and a knowledge of their basic personality can make you care for someone, he's not delusional. It's human nature to care for a person of the opposite sex in which we find attractive, there's no denying that. It may seem a more shallow care at first until the person knows the other better, but it's still care.
But as with a lot of women, the more intrusive and possessive you are with them, the more they want to back off, naturally. And the same with some guys, I'm the same way. I've had an IM stalker that just won't back off and to this day, after a year, she still emails me hoping I'll talk to her but it's just creepy. The more obsessed they seem, the less you feel like you can openly communicate with them for fear of them thinking you're interested.
And I think anyone with a brain here doesn't expect Lia to be more than a typical young woman. I just think OCD runs rampant on this board as well as some fan boards. But in a way, it makes us good, loyal people. My last gf of 5 years, I was very loyal and I couldn't think of any other girl. I think PA, as well as others here, may have OCD since we tend to think about one thing a lot and lose focus on others, but I've no doubt, a majority of people here are smart, educated, and also do well at what they do due to their compulsive and maybe perfectionist nature. In other words, don't talk shit about PA.
