“community” online, but not enough about boundaries.
In this episode of 5FT. PHILOSOPHY, I break down parasocial relationships — the one-sided emotional connections people form with creators, celebrities, podcasters, and internet personalities.
Sometimes they’re comforting. Sometimes they’re motivating.
And sometimes they get real weird, real fast.
I talk about when parasocial relationships are actually helpful, when they turn toxic, and why both fans and creators play a role in the mess.
Tap in, enjoy the content, but don’t confuse access with intimacy.
You don’t know me like that.
This is 5ft.Philosophy
I’m not here to tell you what to think.
I’m here to slow things down long enough so you can think for yourself.
Sit with it.
