It's a crush. It's okay. It's fun to have crushes on fictional characters or celebrities, so long as they don't take over your life. I wouldn't be too hard on yourself.

Unless it's a prolonged, horribly intense crush, I don't think it's a problem unless it really, REALLY bothers you.

If it becomes serious obsession that makes your life hard, you might want to talk to someone about it how to stop. If it is not something that prevents you from functioning then it is not a big deal. Do you have a therapist?

Ive "fallen in love" with many fictional characters. It's a fairly normal thing, unless it stops you from seeking IRL connections. Otherwise i think characters in movies, tv shows, and games are easy to fall for because they are portrayals of characteristics and ideals we wish we could find IRL, and they are "safe" because they are written and scripted and seperated by a screen and therefore could never treat you badly, or break your heart.
