i really like a fictional character so much it hurts and i have this friend who i make stories with with that character and she’s the only one who likes him as much, probably more than me. i don’t want to be that way.

Maybe it’s just a phase? It could be harmless if it’s not getting in the way of your responsibilities and relationships.
I’m tempted to ask how old you are, but that’s not really something you need to share. But if you are young, I’m even more confident it’s a phase.
So you mean if I’m old, it’s not a phase, and I’m now cursed for life? Fuck…
Everything is a phase, especially getting obsessed with a fictional character, unless you develop some kind of crazy strong lifelong obsession, which is unlikely.
If you’re young, phases last shorter.
If you’re an adult, you likely have experienced these kind of passionate obsessions and moved on so getting obsessed with something like this might last a little bit longer but it’ll still pass.
If it bothers you too much, avoid engaging with it. Avoid your friend who will fuel the obsession more. Etc.
