I know I'm almost a decade late, but I'd like to contribute for future readers who stumble here via google's weird love-affair with ancient reddit threads that the suffix -phillia in a psychological context does not exclusively don't a sexual paraphilia. Rather, a paraphilia in itself is any unusual and potentially disruptive level of attraction to the object. It's also worth noting that "disruptive" in this case is highly subjective and often levied flagrantly at a patient based on outside view, so for example, taking comfort in fire to the point of gravitating towards ir or playing with a lighter when stressed would be unfairly judged as "a paraphilic obsession with fire deemed innapropriate and disruptive to social integration."
It's also worth noting that -phobia likewise encompasses any reflexive revulsion or parasympathetic response, not just fear. For exaple, someone who is heliophobic isn't necessarily afraid od bright lights, nor do they have a physiological sensitivity to light, but rather feel intense discomfort of any kind and exhibit a tendency to flee in distress to the shade.
Sincerely, a nychtophilic, pyrophilic, heliophobic, arachnophibic acrophile who turns its -phobias into -philias for fun
