fantasy relationship

Postby JohnM7 » Thu Jan 29, 2009 9:45 pm

I have a habit of creating a fantasy relationship in my head which isn't real. Usually if a girl is kind to me and we seem to get along and I feel like she accepts me and I develop a liking for her I kind of automatically go into a fantasy relationship with her in my head even though a relationship hasn't actually happened and it makes me feel good but the next time I see her the fantasies over and I feel fearful of her rejecting me. I'm not sure if anyones gone through that or something similiar?

I also related with fantasis. When I met a man who liked me, and he used flirt on me I used to take fatasis. Some of them went fullfilled and others failed. But these fantasis were in general harmful for me. :D

I used to fantasize about relationships with girls that I liked. Of course all it did was build it up higher than it should be then when it came crashing down (it always did), it hurt way more than it should have.

I do this, but im not worried about it being unhealthy for me as this is the closest thing i'll ever get to a relationship...

I do this also. When I really like someone I'll dream about the wonderful romance that could be, but isn't because I'm too afraid to even ask her out.

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. Today I've decided to simply keep this particular person out of my head for the entire week next week so as to help break the thing down to reality.

I do this also. I had a fantasy relationship just last month. The more I fantasized, the more pain I felt when I learned she liked someone else instead of me. :cry:

I still do that. It's best to do with someone you only know a little bit. The more you know them the more you find out they are not like your fantasy person.
