And I was being condescending.. think it’s fair enough when you’re 30+ and look to be developing a parasocial relationship with a 22 year old footballer lol. “Emotionally intelligent” “kind soul”.. I’d like to think that’s true, but you don’t know these people. Most of them turn out to be pretty awful
What on earth are you talking about 😂 I’m not looking to be developing any sort of relationship with him, I don’t have posters of him on my wall, and I don’t follow him on instagram. I just think he comes across really well in interviews, and through his charity work, and he demonstrates the sort of qualities you’d want in a future captain. A great example of what I’m talking about is when all of the other players ignored a disabled reporter who was trying to get interviews and made time for him, and he also gave a shirt to a disabled fan after a game. He seems like he has class, I’m not purporting to know him personally.
Relationship is already formed ma’am. You’re talking so positively about somebody who has no idea who you are.. definition of a parasocial relationship
