Cute or just creepy ?

Smitten shop assistant Amanda Whittaker, 27, says she has fallen head over heels for the iconic New York monument.

Amanda, who had a passionate love affair with a drum kit while still at school, said: "She is my long-distance lover and I am blown away by how stunning she is."

The 27 year old, from Leeds, has a condition called objectum sexuality, in which people fall in love with things rather than humans.

She first fell for "Libby", as she calls the statue, when a pal in New York posted her a picture online.

Since then she has visited the 151ft statue in person four times, caressing it and leaning out of a window to kiss its hair. She has even thought about marrying it — but decided against it "because so many others love her too".

Instead she has settled for a shrine to Libby in her home featuring a 6ft replica, hundreds of smaller models and ornaments and huge US flags.

She said: "Other people might be shocked to think I can have romantic feelings for an object, but I am not the same as them."

Personally I think its creepy , imagine seeing her kissing and caressing oul ''Libby''

, How did she even get such a fascination in the first place?!

Cute? No. Creepy? No. Mental? Yup.

It's not cute and nor is it creepy.

She's not sick.

I'd imagine the torch is used as something else....shining into a dark, dark place you could say!

The worst one there has to be the guy that married himself!:mad:

'' Lui denies being gay but says he could be "a bit narcissistic" :rolleyes:

I knew before I even opened the link she'd be horrible looking.

And I was right.

She has a name... It's Libby... And some of us think she is relatively attractive!

Vicar in a tutu · 04-03-2012 07:53AM

I would give my left hand to caress Libbys hair

Whatever your into.

But unfortunately she wont be attracted to you unless your made of stone.

Ellis Dee · 04-03-2012 09:32AM

She's a flake, but at least a harmless one. By the looks of her, what she really needs is a new pastime like walking or jogging - regular exercise for several hours every day to get at least 20 kilos of flab off her and make her attractive to some or other human to love and be loved by.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Sunnyisland · 04-03-2012 09:37AM

God help her,She wouldn't get a hug of a bear, A statue will have to do.

Gummy Panda · 04-03-2012 09:41AM

Bitches be crazy

as125634do · 04-03-2012 10:44AM

Shes a shop assistant so i reckon she gets her kicks from serving people in that. If ur not geting it kids or animals are favorites but i guess objects is the way to go.

Doc Ruby · 04-03-2012 10:48AM

Imagine the children, they'd be like them little venus figurines worshipped by primitive tribes in caves around Europe.

As sad as I think that story is, I think it would be a lot sadder if she was hot. But it is sad. She needs help. As my father often would say "she's more to be pitied than laughed at".

Vicar in a tutu · 04-03-2012 11:08AM

I agree .. its quite sad in fairness.. libby can just never love her the way she loves libby.. and the drumset.

as125634do · 04-03-2012 11:15AM

Evolution not a hope. Shallowness bang on

Caraville · 04-03-2012 11:20AM

Eh, why on earth would anyone find this "cute"??!

Ok, I get perhaps not thinking it's creepy in the sense that she's not really harming anyone, but it's not "cute" anyway.

It's definitely weird anyway, whatever way you look at it.

I wonder if Chase takes it up the exhaust?

She said: "Other people might be shocked to think I can have romantic feelings for an object, but I am not the same as them."

Hmm, bit of an understatement, I think.

Poor cow. That's pretty sad.

Gummy Panda · 04-03-2012 12:19PM

So does she put on of those dildos with a suction cup on it then back into it?

I just don't understand the logistics of a love affair with inanimate object :pac:
