He made me really happy. I used to spend all my time with him. He was there for everything. I remember when my ex asked me out, I cried when I said yes because I loved Willy and I felt like I was betraying him =( That's how I sort of drifted from him because I fell for my ex. After my ex broke my heart I tried to get back into Willy, but it had been 11 months and it just... wasn't there.

You have to learn that characters are always there with us. When we become authors they become part of our lives. But we can't mix both our personal lives with theirs, you can't let Willy interfere with your real life, only allow him to be there as support or inspiration. They don't belong to us anyway, only the ones we create ourselves do. Characters we love come to us and let us enjoy their presence for a while. They never really leave either, they just fade into another plane. They stop being such a priority. But all you have to do is call them and there they'll be right there and you'll realize he never left, you've just stopped thinking so much about him.

You know, I cried when Archie went and -killed- Robotnik to replace him with Eggman. It hurt me a little too much and it's worse when you love a dying character (Dying as in not having enough fans to keep him around for long) but I had to accept that's how reality is, but as long as I keep drawing and thinking about him he won't ever really die. :3

I try to bring him back up so he can hold me and just tell me it'll be okay, but I think some of my imagination died when I was with my ex.

It happens. When things hold us into reality we lose some of our fantasy world. I lost a lot of mine and I want it back. DX
I've had a lot of issues that have forced me to stay very well planted in reality. :/

I miss escaping into fantasy, it made it so much easier to bare.

I think growing up has something to do with it. DX
