I can't even imagine being this delusional
What makes you think this is cool? How do you not realise how creepy it comes off that you are analyzing this girl?
What makes you think even if it were true, tha it would be a good and interesting thing to post on Facebook, and that anyone would react well to it?
This is why I could never call myself "a writer", even if I was actually a published author.

The only crime this guy is committing is passing this off as his daily life. He has the perfect temperament for writing modern fantasy; all he needs to do is create a self insert character. Transferring the target of praise from himself to a fictional character will likely be the hardest undertaking he has ever attempted. I wish him luck and enough free coffee to make it happen.
