Li -
Thank you so much for your advise! You put into words exactly the feeling I get when I go to see his show. "I always worry that people will fall in love with this image that he exudes on stage, and that their love for his personality will somehow be more powerful that the love that we share. " I was never able to articulate it before but that is exactly the insecurity that I feel. It feels selfish to say, but I feel like I have to "share" him with all those people. But really, I fell in love with him before he was ever on stage. Also, he is not the kind of person to let that attention get to his head at all.
Furthermore, I get insecure because never in my life have thousands of people cheered and applauded for me. I feel less valuable than him because I don't get that kind of attention. I know it is a superficial way to judge my own value as a person, but I can't help but feel that way.
