How to Stop Getting Caught Up in the Fantasy
Mar 14, 2021Are you constantly caught up in unrealistic day dreams about a guy you just met or have been talking to for a while?
It's so easy for us to come up with these elaborate romantic scenarios where the bad guy turns into the good guy, or he "saves" you from something, or whatever is yours.
Why do we get so caught up in these stories and become obsessed with the guy so quickly?
Think back to the movies you've watched, the books you've read, and the songs you've grown up with. These depict an unrealistic expectation of romance and love that leads us to float on a fairytale cloud for a while, only to come crashing down when reality hits.
In this episode, we discuss:
- How media has influenced our perception of love
- How to uncover what your current perception of love is
- Signs you're caught up in an unrealistic fantasy with a Gumball Guy
- What types of things you actually should be fantasizing about
- What to expect from real love
As always, if any of this resonates with you, please don't hesitate to book a private 1-1 call with me. In this time we can go deeper into your specific situation and gain so much clarity.
