Dear Caterina,
How do I let stop fantasizing about a relationship I can’t have?
Signed,
Living in a Fantasy
Dear Living:
Sometimes we put a person up on a pedestal, and in our fantasy, they are the best possible partner we could ever have. They may not be available or interested, but some people convince themselves that this person is meant for them, and that life would be so much better with them in it.
You may have kept that fantasy alive for years, or even decades, thinking that maybe if…, then the relationship could begin.
If the person is not showing any interest, and this fantasy has gone on for a long period, it can be a protection device that people use to keep potential partners away.
You will always be in a self-made prison of fantasy versus reality, and the sad thing is, that the one who is meant for you, may pass you by. Reach out to me if you want to learn more.
Have a wonderful day.
