I have developed a crush on one of my characters. I more-than-just-like her enough that I'm almost writing fanfiction about her.

My gf is gonna mock me for this...

I've fallen in love with all of my best female leads. I can't write them deeply enough if I don't.

I mean, if I as the writer don't love her, why should I expect anyone else to care?
 
If your character is not based on your girlfriend, she will castrate you for it.

My gf is a tiny Japanese maid-cafe girl. DEFINITELY not the inspiration for the character in question. But she will think it's hilarious.
 
All of my female leads thus far are based on those I've loved or should have loved. It happens ;)
 
Heaven forbid it’s one of those AI life-like sex dolls...hahaha...she might get her wires crossed and do some off the wall things🌹Kant👠👠👠

Given some of the batshit crazy women I've dated, that'd be quite normal, all things considered...

You really like to drive the otakus nuts, don't you ... :D

I'd say you have written a great character then. If you can develop a crush on her, chances are your readers might do as well.

And so long there's no chance of you being able to 3d-print her into some AI life-sex doll, your gf has nothing to worry about.

... then again, you being you, someone might actually ask you to write a story about that. You do seem to attract the weird ones ;)
 
I think that most of my likeable female characters are based, in part at least, on women I have known. Mind you, the same is true of some of the unlikable ones. :)

1) Yes, I do love to drive my otaku friends nuts. It's a given.

2) Care to guess which character it was I developed a crush on?

3) 3D print her? I'm not Krieger, unfortunately...

4) And I already have a Pygmalion-esque story in the works, now that you mention it.

I've killed the character that was based the closest upon my wife. I hope she never finds out...
 
Many of my characters are based on people I think I've known. Sometimes I compress a few real people into one player; or I expand one real person into several characters. Or I just visualize someone and make them do or say what I (or the voices in my head) want. Maybe I've loved them. Maybe I've hated them. Maybe I only observed amusedly. Or maybe I just invent them and what the fuck, off they go. Whatever.

I do that too. It's hard for me to make create a character I know nothing about or is not a character I can't relate to in some way.
 
When I get back to writing, I may work myself into a foul mood, write a story with all my favorite characters, and kill-off the lot. That'll show-em.
