I hate my subject of hyperfixation

Maybe imagine that he’s with you throughout your daily routine/tasks. His interactions with you include all sorts of good stuff- he validates your feelings and your struggles. “Wow, [your name here] that’s a hard habit to create. And it’s okay that it’s hard. I commend your willingness to start over as you deal with yet another setback, man. You’re kind of a badass, actually!” You: “Thanks for saying that, Will. That really helps me right now.” You overhear conversations where he’s pointing out one of your strengths to someone just because he admires that strength he sees in you and is simply just compelled to share his admiration with another person. No hidden agenda. No underlying motive. He laughs at your jokes, affirms you regularly, makes out-of-the-box observations that highlight the good that can come out of the bad, etc. He’s just a really cool dude who very much appreciates your friendship. ……… Will you let me know if it works? Maybe I should try this out for myself! Lol.
