Fictophilia 

Desire, sexual attraction, or intense feelings of love towards a fictional character, similar in strength and application of those felt towards real people.

Fictophiles rare experience fictophilia exclusively while being unable to connect with real people, but often fictophilic desires persist even when the person is in a serious real life relationship.

He was so in love with Dean Winchester, he knew it was fictophilic.
