Fantasies in a relationship aren't really good, or are they?
I think it's harmful to have fantasies in a relationship and here is why:
- It's not good for you to get hooked into someone who's unavailable, and becoming emotionally invested causes you to react differently to your significant other.
- The fantasy makes you less emotionally available to other men/women.
- No one can ever measure up to a fantasy, it's not real. It's like the movies, that stuff doesn't really happen, although (I could argue that it has happened to me but that's a topic coming to you, soon.) I think it's best to stay grounded in reality instead, this way you don't have unrealistic expectations or disappointment when that person doesn't deliver what you expect.
Good, Bad, Indifferent?
Agreed. 100%. Relationships take work and usually people don't fantasize about working.
