For some reason sometimes if there is a fictional place or character I really like I sometimes get really sad that it isn't real (like even to the point of crying) Is this because of my AS or no?

I sometimes have a lot of trouble remembering that fictional characters are fictional. They're too real in my head.

I was sad the inside of the Benny & Joon house wasn't real. It's also sad the B&J characters aren't real either. Whenever I go to Spokane, it doesn't feel the same because the characters aren't real. I can't just knock on the B&J door and ask if Benny is there. Maybe I should just to see the reaction on the owner's face or see what she says. :lol:
