"A delusional young guy strikes up an unconventional relationship with a doll he finds on the Internet. "
A JF member story or a Ryan Gosling featured movie. Anyone seen this - Lars and the Real Girl.
I assume you haven't seen.
Yes, I've seen it about three years ago, did I like it? No, I just loved it. So much. It's not my genre, but it's a very warm movie, peaceful, and reminds me an asian sailor friend who had a, you know, plastic gf. He was literrally in love with it.

He even got engaged with it and was begging to the skipper to make them married. At the end, he(the captain) convinced him to finish the relationship and make him throw his fiance into the Indian Ocean.
I don't want to spoil the movie so I can only say this, you can believe the movie because there are really that kind of relationships in the life.
But I have to warn though, there is noone anything like charlie bronson guy in the movie. So you may get bored.
And please, make a guess, which JF member could have a similar story. I've a guess but I don't want to start a war.
