Most of the time thought my day dreams are based around people that I am attracted to. I imagine running into them and having them adore me in some sort of way. Like having them show up to the bar that I just happen to be singing at that night, or showing up to my house at my party and thinking how could I must be...yeah...kind of lame...especially because I am 21 lol.

Thanks for posting that! I didn't really understand the "maladaptive daydreaming" thing until you kind of explained it. So I wouldn't say I'm that extreme, just sometimes I feel like I'm like "oh that would be better than whatever situation I'm in right now" so I start from that. I don't think I can consider myself obsessive about it because sometimes I go to start and realize like no, this isn't normal. But it's normal for me so I guess I can't argue with that.
But honestly I'm glad you said that because that sounds exactly like what I do. And I'm 21 as well..I deff feel weird about it but yet better because I'm not the only one apparently, ya know?
