just wondering how obsessed some people are about harry potter. please pick one, and tell me to what point. ex:

To the point where I nearly dream about Hogwarts, go on chatrooms/forums/main sites every single day, I can't help but to talk about Harry Potter to my friends and eventually driving them insane, my friends call me the almighty walking Harry Potter factbook, have article clippings of ANYTHING Harry Potter attached to my wall, I have a whole shrine in my closest dedicated to Harry Potter, etc.

My friends call me obsessed and they tend to roll their eyes when i talk about Harry Potter. I go on this forum nearly everyday, read and write (eh, just one) fanfiction, read the books more than once, saw the movies multiple times, in love with one of the actors, etc.

hehe

As for me....well, let's just say I'm a bit too old to be obsessed with these stuff...

Not that I'm not, mind you! But...I kind of put on some control into it, just so I'm able to carry on with my life!!

I mean...I bought all books in the first week I start reading HP and PS, log in to this forum every single day, I have HP ringtone and pictures on my handphone, wallpaper and sound effect on my computer, I create lots of bookmark with my favourite HP quote on it, just so I won't be separated with my HP spirit when I go to my classes (I bet my lecturer won't be happy if she saw me reading the books instead of listening to her lecture...) and the last thing I read before I go sleep is HP books (I'm on reread phase)...

But I still have to study and do other stuff...(I have a test this Friday and still spend time writing in this forum!!!)

So...I kind of make a deal with myself...for example, if I study for three hours today, that's exactly how long I get to spend online...

If I finish my assignment, then I get spend all night online...yeah, stuff like that...

I go on all the websites and all of that...

but I can somehow connect *anything* to Harry Potter... it's really kind of sad.
My friend is just as bad, so I'm not *too* pathetic

Mm... yeah, I was similar to that for Alan Rickman for a while lol. I can connect almost any movie to him for example lol, it's really quite funny.

I drive my friends insane talking about hp all the time, spend a lot of my day on forums, am working on a harry potter theory site (though I did get a little sidetracked working on a "dress up snape" game)... if a friend is talking about something, like mention the word chocolate lol...I can't help think that "it'll help, it will really help"... usually say that out loud too.

My best friend called me a freak yesterday like twelve times because I couldn't stop talking about hp and bugging her to go on these forums to see if anyone had responded to any of my posts.

I'm working to convince everyone I know to read HP, spend most of my day thinking about it and trying to connect things together to make theories on it... (that's been my passion for the last month or so)...

and yeah, lol. I think I might be a bit insane. but that's okay, I think. lol

Completely and utterly stark raving bonkers obsessed!!!! To the point where, when I started my new job yesterday and we all had to say a bit about ourselves, I actually admitted to a whole crowd of people that I love Harry Potter books....and I'm 27.....you can imagine the looks I had!! But people still wanted to talk to me, so I guess that's okay!!!!

But yeah, HP ringtones, graphics, wallpapers, posters all over my walls (but very tastefully framed ), I even bought all the Lego PoA stuff and I have Sirius, Buckbeak, the Grim, and Harry all sat right on my computer now as I speak!!!

I've even got little post-its sticking out of important canon stuff in PS and CoS (I'm in the process of reading all the boks again)!!! But I write fanfic, and I like it to be as accurate as possible, so I guess I have something of an excuse, albeit a one!!!!

very very obsessed when i sit in study hall i will be working on something and without knowing it i start makeing thorys about hp and i have poples going to sleep cause i start comeing up with hp thorys but the worst in the 4th grade i beleved my frind when he said he had a portal to hogwarts in his colset y i beleved him i don't know

i am too obsessed, it may be unhealthy.
i have re-occuring dreams of hogwarts.
i have day dreams about attending hogwarts.
i truely believe that hogwarts is real.
i memorized the first film, and i think i've memorized the secong, but neither one on purpose.
i read the books over and over. and i cannot get enough of them.
my friends make fun of me, and also get very annoyed with me because i wont shut up.
there is ALWAYS one of the harry potter DVD's in my dvd player.
i google harry potter everyday.
i name people in the harry potter books, that even my other friend who likes harry potter does not know.
my bedroom wall is a harry potter shrine, that could be turned into a museum.
if i am in a store, my eyes are attracted to the special harry potter writing because i can find it in an instant.
i cut out EVERY picture or add or ANYTHING that is in a magazine/newpaper that has anything to do with harry potter.
i cried when my mum told me i couldnt buy anymore harry potter posters. also when she said i couldnt pre-order the 3rd DVD.
i dont let other people touch my harry potter shirt.
really, i think its a bit unhealthy.

I'm not obsessed with HP. Mainly because I'm completely obssesed with hockey.

I like hockey way!!!!!! too much.

I am so obsessed! I can also relate anything to Harry Potter, even when I'm at school trying to learn. I think about it all the time. I have several sites I check like every day. (this being one of them) I used to be embarrassed about it, but I don't care anymore. I'll tell anyone who listens how much I love Harry Potter.

whoever picked "i'm not obsessed, but i still love the series!" are in DENIAL. ADMIT IT! hahaha just kidding.

hmm you shouldnt be embarrassed about something you really really like. you have something to keep you happy and that's all that matters. i used to be embarrassed too lol.

i memorized the second film because i have the dvd. remind me to get the first one...lol.

i went bonkers today because my friend told me something that i never knew about. i started a topic about it in the lounge. something about aberforth dumbledore. i started yelling at him because i disagreed. hmmm i really should stop that before something bad might happen lol.

Hey, dana_scully...I like the idea of that framed poster! Hmm...I think I know exactly which one I'm going to put it in...

yeah, you're right, doomed_renascence...why should we be embarrased over it?! It keeps us happy, isn't it?? yeah, that's what matters...

oh, im not embarassed at all. i wear my harry potter shirt to the mall with pride. however, it does embarrass my friends! and they are like "doesnt it make you feel strange megan?
and i am like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. because i treasure my shirt.
oh, harry potter, how i love thee

I'm obsessed with harry potter that i'm on the computer when ever i can going on harry potter websites! I have a lot of harry potter books including some that Jo didn't write called, So you think you know harry potter? and The magical world of harry potter. My friends think i'm harry potter mad!

Obsession: Compulsive, often anxious preoccupation with a fixed idea or unwanted emotion.

That is the exact word defining my relation w/ HP!! OMG, where to start.. I read every (and I do mean it), every single post in this topic just to see how obsessed the rest of you are!

Well, my friends and my sister make fun of me for being such an HP fanatic (I'm more than that I'll tell you).. I have loads of HP merchandise! Loads.. not kidding, too many to mention.. but like you all, I collect the posters & the like.. visit many HP related sites.. I log on to this forum every day & get angry when I don't get the chance to.

Here's a funny story: On Valentine's Day I gave out HP Valentines cards.. there was one I really liked & thought hilarious.. it had Ron on the card and the message right next to him was 'I think you're WICKED'..hehe!! I think that's more Rupert Grint-like than Ron-like..or maybe..wait..correct me if I'm mistaken!

I am completely obssessed I think about Harry Potter at least once a day!!!! I need help......

Only once a day??? Man, that's a mild case you have there...when you get up to the 10 times a day level...like me.... And you start getting jittery if you can't get to a computer to talk about HP with other people just as loopy as yourself.... Then you'll have something to worry about...**tee hee**

It gets to the point where you're studying biology and you start thinking about Harry Potter.

heh heh heh...yeah, I know!! I was in another meeting today at work and I managed to get at least two references to Harry Potter in!! I couldn't believe it!!! Not to mention that very often, my lectures are soooo interesting in uni that I sometimes start thinking...mmm....wouldn't it be nice if the lecturers looked more like Alan Rickman? Lol.....And when I went to my sister's graduation a couple of weeks ago, all the officials there were wearing Hogwarts-like robes and I started to think, yet again, of our (not so beloved) Snape!!! Oh deary me....Those men with the straight jackets are gonna be headin' my way any day now.......

I'd never really thought about it, but yup, I am really rather full of the obsession. I've read the whole series again twice this year, yet I claim I don't have time to read, anymore, I'm constatly trying to get my Ian to buy me HP merch, tring to get him to read it, making him watch the movies then quizzing him...I'm always HERE, aren't I?
And I have absolutely NO shame in saying to people I hardly know "well, I'm on this Harry Potter board on the internet, and...*

Eheheh...>.<

Yeah I didnt know which one tp pick, so I put pethic since I get teased soooooo much for my little HP obsession. They think I like little boys all cause I think the actors are hott. Well I'm going on 18 so I wont be able to say that any more :'(

Yeah, my grandma's 7 years older than my grandad..it's no biggie...

And besides, Harry Potter's just cool, regadless of whether one happens to fancy the actors in the movies or anything...*shrugs*

im not dat bad, i just love da bks and chattin 2 all u's

Awww...*ruffles Maeve's hair fondly*

I'll admit, I've become a lot more obsessed since coming here...

I am obsessed!!! I have tapes for the PoA, GoF, and OotP and listen to them quite often. I have to go online everyday and get my Harry Potter News!!! From many site but mainly Veritaserum! I love Harry Potter (the books not Dan Radcliffe)

to obsessed for my own good

I scare myself because I am so obsessed with Harry Potter. lol

I'm so obsessed! I'm reading Harry all time, when I finish read 5th part, I begin read 1st part, so...


I' m so sorry for my grammar :/

So obsessed it's pathetic really!

I sit there for hours on end reading Harry Potter books and watching the films...though i'm sure everyone else does!

Im 100000% obsessed with HP and im proud of it.

i reread the books almost every day, my room is covered with HP posters; beseide my bed, there is a notice board with my favourite quotes and pictures from the books/movies.

and i spent lot of time on Veriaserum

Everytime it's coming closer to a release date of a book or movie I become obsessed all over again... just like when I first started reading the series. It's fun to be obsessed tho, if i might say so myself.

well lets see im obsessed where that it's pathetic really... its not that im not proud cause i am, but some times i just feel rather stupid about it really. when im online i basiclly look harry potter stuff, and poke round hear alot. my husband thinks im obsessing, but i dont quite think im there yet. but im getting there fast lol.

Gee. I get to hear almost every day that I'm too obsessed with Harry Potter from all of my friends. I actually enjoy it, really. I'm proud of being Harry Potter obsessed fan, and hopefullly it will never change

Im so obsessed with HP that everyday when i get home from work i get on the internet and go to Veritaserum.com to read HP news and to excahge theories about HBP (now i found the forums). I have the HBP countdown clock as wallpaper. Im so obsessed its pathetic but do i care? NO!!! because harry potter rules and if im pathetic then so be it at lease im reading and enjoying myself instead or sitting in front of the tv rotting my brain away

Well I'm not the "stalk JK" or "trying to fly on a broom" kind of obsessed, but I'm pretty obsessed. Every conversation I have with my family friends, etc. I always bring up Harry Potter. Even if we're talking about say...cleaning toilets. I always find some way to talk about HP...Yep. That's how obsessed I am.

Ofcourse I am obssessed! I can call myself the No.! HP Fan in the Philippines! But no ones appreciates me for being one . . .Still, I am happy!

I voted for very. I'm just on the middle stage. I can't say that I'm really that obsessed because I started reading the book last year. But I think I'll be on the stage quite soon...

I get obsessed too easily. First harry potter, then the oc, and now veronica mars. I wonder what is next?
Wow, they changed the layout since I was last here.

im way tOoooOOo obsessed!



Hi there! Please have a read over the rules here. Posts must contain at least two lines, and you can not use excessive characters. Thank you Shane

I'm not "colect everything Harry Potter" obsessed. I just love the books and movies and costumes and games. I love to talk about Harry Potter all the time. People are starting to get sick of me so I just come her for other Harry Potter geeks like me.

I am so very, very, very, insanely and utterly obsessed it's sickening, really. I'm the most obsessed person I know! I go on MN, or Veritaserum at least five times an hour. All I ever do is think about Harry Potter, and yell like a raging lunatic when somebody puts it down! I even relate it to real life. Harry Potter ismy real life, this life is just my fantasy

I am very much obsessed with HP...I have everything from Legos to Calenders to preordered games lol...and thats all I really talk about if its got to do with movies or literature...just go and see what obsessive things so you do for harry potter thread in the lounge...I do ALL those things (well mostly)

I´m so obsessed!!!!!!!
Everytime,everyday...I think in HP....and I have to access veritaserum or other site that have something about HP....my day isn´t complete if I don´t see anything about HP!!!!!
I think that you must be realized how much I´m obsessed.....hahahaha...
And I think,that this obsession,is good for me!!!!!

i wouldn't say that i was obsessed! i wouldn't go that far. but i really do like the series, the games, but not soo much the movies, they miss to much of the books out, and that really annoys me!.

i chose VERY...because i am very obsessed to hp..man i really am aint i?haha..i may not look it but im not ashamed to say that i am! i love hp! and everything about it..im also sad that the 4th movie has already ended..im already missing that feeling when a new movie comes..*sigh..whatever..

well...lets just say that when you make your mom cry and get a psycologist for your obsessions...yeah...you get it...

well, i'd say i reall am too obsesseed for my own good
but i'm okay with it... just sometimes i think i have to STOP myself!
