How many times can you tell me you hate me before I believe it?
Am I in an abusive relationship with Star Wars?

  1. Star Wars doesn’t hate you, that’s your subjective perception.

Yes. And perception of reality is not unimportant. One’s perception informs their feelings and decisions, which can affect actual objective events. They are not obligated to alter their perception just because you would have them do so.

  1. Please don’t use the phrase “abusive relationship” to describe something as trivial as a movie.

I’m certain that was tongue in cheek. And it’s not just a movie, it’s an experience. To relegate the experience, the entity that is Star Wars as “just a movie” is to cheapen people’s feelings or desires for it. One might as well wonder why this website even exists, given that the original Original Trilogy are “just movies.”
