Fantasies are just fantasies. If they don't bother you, then you're fine.

But for what it's worth, I'll share my experience: my fantasies bothered me, though after a while, I denied to myself that they did. Really, for me, they were an indicator of a whole lot of other underlying, repressed issues. I got into therapy over a year ago for reasons unrelated to this, but this is one of the many things I've talked about and dealt with in therapy. My fantasies have been slowly evolving to include other types of fantasies, ones which are not so distressing to me, and I'm usually actually in my own fantasies now (imagine that!). This involved a whole lot of exploration of childhood and adolescent issues, and it hasn't been easy to talk about these things and deal with them. But for me, it has made a big difference.
Thanks soo much for this response and thank u for ur time....i too used to pretend i was a make believe male raping a make believe woman, and im female! I googled everywhere and couldnt find others like me so i thought i was weird or something.. But now my fantasies involve me being young (knowing nothing of sex) and having a perverted man teach me..sounds sick i know..thats why it bothers me. But im am so happy for u that u got therapy and as a result of doing that u found out the underlying issues that caused ur fantasies..
Thanks for this!
