The way Dylan O'Brien reacts to his celebrity status and interacts with his fans makes him one of the nicest actors and human beings.

Fame is a fickle mistress.

One day everyone is obsessing about a character in a new fantasy series, the next day a new Marvel movie comes out and suddenly a previously unknown superhero becomes the subject of heated internet discussions.

However, there are faces that don't stop popping up in trends and fans' romantic dreams.

One of such eternal internet boyfriends is Dylan O'Brien who made an epic comeback last year after an almost five-year hiatus caused by a serious trauma on the set of Maze Runner 3. The break let the actor reintroduce himself to himself, as he put it in an interview with Bustle.

But the main thing didn't change.

He is still beloved by millions and very excited about all the love he gets from fans. The return of the actor was celebrated by his enormous fanbase who had had a virtual affair with O'Brien since he first appeared in MTV's Teen Wolf as the sweet and handsome protagonist Stiles Stilinski back in 2011.

Many years and roles later, dedicated fans still remember their celebrity crush regularly making his liberal-leaning tweets viral and obsessing over his projects. For example, Taylor Swift 's All To Well short film starring Dylan O'Brien alongside Stranger Things ' Sadie Sink has become a huge hit. All the interviews and posts show the actor appreciates the love his fans are sending his way. He never misses a chance to take a photo with or give an autograph to a lovesick fan. He told Bustle that being nice had always been his thing.

"I think it's something that I owe myself to embrace, because it's a good quality, for the most part," the actor shared after taking time to record a message for a fan who approached him in the middle of the interview.

When asked how he felt about the amount of love he gets from his huge fanbase, the actor had the best reply.

"It's so funny, my palms are sweating. It's overwhelming [and] it's wonderful. It's just gnarly to think about little me having this really special thing happen."

Undoubtedly, such a sweet and genuine reaction is what lets the actor keep his internet boyfriend status for years.
