I think the physical response is almost exactly the same for each (and also anger), its why teens take their dates to scary movies. Also why you have probably known at least one couple that sure do gently caress alot for two people that seem to hate each other.

The reason to take your date to a scary movie is so you can put your arm around them when the scary part happens old man!!!

That may be why you consciously take them, but really it's all about those sweet sweet endorphins. It's also why people like sports and rollercoasters. We should invent some sort of chemical that you can eat or drink that simulates endorphins. We'd be rich!

The thing about hybristophilia is that there isn't just one root cause in general or even per subject.

By all reports, Carol Boone was genuinely shocked and angry when Bundy confessed what a sick loser perv he was.

Teller ended the meeting by standing up in a huff, but his attempt at a dramatic exit was marred by the fact that he was wearing Rollerblades. He wobbled to the door in silence.

I've literally been told the "Dude did drugs and now thinks he's a glass of orange juice, terrified of someone drinking him" by a mental healthcare professional as if it was a totally real thing that happened at her job and not a drug scare story. Also 2 people who's cousins had experienced the "snake sleeps next to owner, and gets spooky info at the vet when it stops eating".

Both of those stories just happened to be really popular chainmail stories at the time.

The glass of orange juice story I've heard most often attributed to Syd Barrett or Brian Wilson.

Brian Wilson wouldn't be off the mark. It's true that he had a meltdown during the production of Smile and in his words was "about ready to die". But the stories I can't confirm are pretty close to the orange juice madness; for example, he supposedly had a truckload of sand brought into the recording studio and had the boys dress in lays and Hawaiian shirts to make the music better.

There's also a story that he thought a song he was writing called Fire was causing fires in his neighbourhood, so he burnt all the masters to stop it.

Now here's a story all about how
My neighborhood almost burned down
I'd like to take a minute just sit right there
As I tell you how my song set fires in Bel-Air

In front of my piano penning rhymes
In the studio is where I'd spend most of my time
Writing down notes and composing progressions
For another successful musical session
When a couple of fires that were not very good
Starting breaking out around Inglewood
That one little fright was all I required
to destroy all the masters of a song I called Fire

i(m16)'m worried that my hybristophilia is going to ruin my relationship with my boyfriend (m17)

quote:

i'm not sure where to post this. i apologize if it doesn't fit here.

for those unaware, hybristophilia is basically an attraction, usually sexual, to criminals. it means i have strong feelings towards people like richard ramirez (serial killer/rapist/burglar), jeffrey dahmer (serial killer/cannibal/rapist) and ted bundy (serial killer/rapist/necrophiliac). despite this, i do not condone.

we've been together for a few months and i recently told my boyfriend about this and he's relatively ok with it.

he's trying to help me stop these thoughts and feelings because he knows that i hate them. sometimes i want to get better, but most of the time i'm ok being like this. it's all so confusing.

earlier, he told me to change my profile pictures (my discord and main reddit both have richard ramirez profile pictures) and stop using tumblr, i kept refusing to. now he's mad at me for not listening and for not trying to fix myself.

i love him so much but i'm scared that he'll like me less because of this.

tl;dr, i'm worried my sexual attraction to serial killers (hybristophilia) is going to be the end of my relationship

I'm sure it's not so easy to just stop as it seems from the outside, but like, leaving communities that support that and trying to cut yourself off from true crime stuff and focus on something else has to be a start. Lots of unhealthy fixations are compulsive, it doesn't mean the solution is just to shrug and go oh well, especially when they can lead to behavior that harms yourself or others, which in this case would probably be the temptation to get into relationships with real scumbags.

EDIT: I would also advise someone to get off tumblr if they were, say, struggling with an eating disorder, bc tumblr throws pro-ana and thinspiration blogs into the recs a lot for some reason. The platform isn't the content that the platform can contain, but if you're unable or unwilling to filter out triggering content, it's not healthy to be on there.

I won't link because I've done a fine enough job clogging up the thread already, but I researched a story on a guy named Murf the Surf who was exactly that. Charming as hell, a swindler, and convicted on murder (he denies it). While locked up he found God, a sympathetic reporter who became his wife, and managed to get out. He's born again now and spends his time telling people not to lie cheat and steal.

There’s a podcast by wondery called The Sneak and season 2 is about Murf the Surf.

It’s got some interesting stuff - like one of the reasons why the original robbery got so much publicity and the robbers so much fame is because it was an Ocean’s 11 kind of victimless robbery with gentleman thieves where no one gets hurt, but years later during an interview, Murphy just drops a bit about how during the robbery he had a gun with him was supposed to take care of the security guard patrolling if the guard came across them.

One of the things I found really messed up was when Murph was interviewed some years back and somehow Murphy manages to get his hands on the reporter’s hotel bill with the telephone charges and proceeds to make calls to the reporter’s parents, best friend and girlfriend, basically threatening the reporter. And this happened while Murph was supposed to a reformed evangelist who had changed his ways.
