Tonight I’m going to fantasize about He-Man

Well, that was my thought two night ago at least LOL  My boyfriend and I had watched Masters Of The Universe and I realized that Dolph Lundgren as He-Man was really, very hot.  There’s just something about a big, strong hero, ya know? LOL

Now, I actually have a pretty active fantasy life and often have long, drawn-out and detailed fantasies that can last several days in a row.  Once I’m done fantasizing I may pick it up the next day/night/whatever and keep it going.  That way it can be a full story.

I tend to fantasize for different reasons; usually to help me fall asleep.  Fantasizing during masturbation often gets distracting for me, in a bad way, so frequently I use porn for those purposes.  However, regardless of that, I still fantasize.  A lot.  And regardless of the reasons, I think having a healthy fantasy life is a good thing.

For starters, it lets you forget about your stressful daily life and live out a fantasy of some other version of you with He-Man or Superman or Fabio or whomever gets your juices flowing.  Secondly, by being able to play out these fantasies in your mind, you can see/feel your reactions to them which can really help you work through and see if some of the elements of your fantasy would be something you’d like to try out in real life with your partner.  I’m sure there are plenty of reasons to fantasize, a good portion of it being that it’s the only way some of these things could happen, such as you being a vampire or being with a superhero.  But these listed are my big ones.

A big thing that I’ve heard though, is that fantasizing is a form of cheating.  Also, I’ve heard that you “shouldn’t have to” fantasize, just as I’ve heard that you “shouldn’t have to” masturbate.  I’m not going to get into the “shouldn’t have to” masturbate thing.  However the “shouldn’t have to fantasize”…well, I don’t have to at all!  I choose to.  And the thing about the cheating … well, with all things you really should talk to your partner.  Let them know that you enjoy fantasizing and also let them know what you enjoy fantasizing about.  Then if they have a problem with it you can discuss it and let them know why you fantasize.  You should also ensure to let them know that you’re perfectly okay with them fantasizing.

Either way, I love fantasizing.  It helps me relax when trying to fall asleep, and if nothing else can really get my juices flowing if I’m in a mood to masturbate and don’t feel like watching porn.  Thing is, my boyfriend is aware that I fantasize and he’s okay with it.  Since I’m not really with anyone else; it’s all in my head and for the most part the me that’s in my fantasies is not a realistic me.  It’s not me as I am right now.  Sometimes I”m a super hero or a secret agent or a vampire or rich or whatever LOL

Hey, it’s what fantasies are for! LOL

What do you fantasize about, and why do you fantasize?  Also — what are your opinions about fantasizing in general?
