His character as a photo developer exhibited a creepy mental illness. What is the mental illness called when a lonely person fixates on certain people & becomes obsessed with them in unhealthy uncomfortable creepy ways?

Intimacy-seeking stalkers often have delusional disorders involving erotomanic delusions.
I haven’t seen the film, but it sounds like a platonic version of erotomania, or a non-specific delusional disorder.
Okay thank you, this one might describe me. Except I don’t stalk because when I start to feel that weird creepy feeling like I want to be in their lives (but I have the self-awareness to realize that I do not belong in their lives) I do the opposite of stalking. I remove myself.
