I know having a Parasocial Relationship with a celebrity is wrongTM but like I can’t be the only one who (healthily) feels motivated to achieve my dreams by listening to Taylor’s songs and her speeches and studying her career… like I didn’t grow up in high income home like she did and my parents in no way are investing any money for my own career but that doesn’t mean I can’t feel inspired by how Taylor didn’t actually have ties to the industry growing up and managed to break through it. In some way I too will break into the academic field I’m aiming for while having no tied to it now. I’ve been living through this woman since I was like 13 and now I’m 23 and after many years of low mental health and depression and feeling lonely I’m at a place in my life where I CAN start chasing my dreams and I actually believe in myself and when I listen to You’re on your own kid or read the lover diary entries I get reminded that I CAN I CAN I CAN I CAN do it. So basically my point is that sometimes living vicariously through celebrities isn’t that bad and actually can benefit your mental health.
