Parasocial relationships have always made me really uncomfortable. Since longer than I knew the word for it. I avoid most social media because of this.

The other day I wanted to know if a band I like is touring. Searching took me to their Facebook, where there were a lot of personal posts by the singer. Her being like "I got a new haircut check it out" or "got dressed up for the party" or whatever. I'm just like oof I can't be here. I don't want to feel like I know this person when I absolutely do not. But if I stuck around and read their feed regularly, it would quickly feel like I was getting updates from a real friend. I just want to know if they're going on tour or putting out new music.
