Im not quite sure what's emotional attachment exactly that I've tried to express, but maybe kind of loving it or maybe disgusting if its It doesn't match my expectations, it should be okay, but loving things? It's like mostly I'm done it in-game like growtopia items and so much stuff.

I treated my stuffed animal as a real animal when I'm in highschool, It was a dog one I really liked it, I even put it beside me when I'm about to sleep and sometimes put a blanket on it as if it also gets cold. I felt that kind attachment to my stuffed animal because of my previous cats and dog that died, to cut the long story short they most of them didn't last a year the day they're born which is why I grow into liking that stuffed animal. Sadly I lost that stuffed animal.

When I was a kid, I didn't make many friends, so I just played with some figurines that I assembled.

I felt that I could hear, adventure with them, I even told my mom that, but she said that I should find real friends instead of playing too much.

with those toys

I also tried to make real friends because of that, but it didn't go well because I got bullied several times.

And yes, I'm back in that imaginary world, along with those toys.

until finally there was something that could pull me out of that dark circle, a world that had no direction, slowly showing light because of it

and I decided until now to chase that light, and I hope this is the best

( I fell in love with her )

cool guys. loves yall stories you've got through.
I'm also went up to now college through whole things. Long time when I was a kid, I'm just a lil gamer with my old grandpa's computer and toys lover, and mostly I'm in love with transformers and yea I was truly UFO and apocalypse believer and I was afraid of it. And then thank God, when I'm lived with my grandpa and grandma, also with my uncle, I believe in God miracle and Jesus Christ. Yea, they brought me to church and they said that don't worry bout all of those things. And alright then, till now im still fan of robots thing.
I'm in love with computers, some lines of codes even it's really not understandably for me like really not my types lol, and welp I loved anime girls fr fr. And you know, assembling gundams isn't bad. It has it's own enjoyment it's self. And yea, life still goes on and on.

This is really unusual, but when i was a kid, i used to put boogers on a wall near our backyard. Kind of like a time capsule per se. I didn't really think of it as much before, but now that i think about it, it was kinda weird haha. But i still check up on that wall once in a while even though it's already chipped out.

For me, it is my dinner plate. It has been with me since i was few years old, for some reason using the same plate for over 15 years just makes me feel close to home, using the same plate growing up reflects me about my days growing up as if there are some unusual emotional attachment with it. It can be eating a meal alone, with my family and even having family gatherings with my cousins and relatives during festive seasons. It is quite literally just an object we use often but it has a significant meaning to my life

I have it to a 🧶🪡🧵 tool i took from my grandma object after she passed away, i kinda take care of it and sometimes treat it as a weapon or a pet i also create fake scenarios where it saves me power there, additionally to my school pen in which i use the same pen for revision and quizzes for some weird psychology believing in the pen memory xd, it is just some placeboo effects.

And at the end to my discord bot i feel like it is alive and i like it when new people uses it, like a creation of yours which is being used by others, such a cool feeling.

I had unusual relations with many objects since i was a kid, i just use alot of imagination, imagination is the key to productivity and creativity, well it is actually ot essential element, we imagine something that can be brought to life as there is no literal impossibility, and then we apply it in certain cases in which we devide to categories and plenty of questions, one of them is that QOTD.

And that happens more often if the individuals had the liberty (not the capability of sharing their ideas but the capability of sharing the idea without feeling with any social or physical threat) to share their ideas and creations, and more open spaces to think. As Nawal Al-Saadawi once said:
the human start creating and being productive after rebelling.

Look how far philosophy can take us

[tidal mulch]

What i have imagined has came to life in different stages, ones are feelings and others are a creation for others to be able to feel about and for me a feeling that i can apply on something i have made for others to feel about.

It can also be translated in wider stages than basic feelings.
