Hey there, mylotters, I am a Pisces. I read my horoscope in the internet and they say people with the zodiac sigh pisces prefer fantsy rather than reality. I think it's true since I always am in my own world and hardly stay in touch with what's happening to around me. How about you? Do you like living in an artificial world you create or living in reality?:D

for me it is both. at night i let my mind wonder so that i can get to a good fantasy and fall asleep comfortably. but usually during the day i have to be focused and on top of things. i like to drift while i am in the shower. maybe something to do while i am washing my hair i dont know.
unfortunatly my fantasies - and i know some of you will relate - i dream of being a mutant. like an x-men or a super hereo.
i usually think that i am Jade- a mutant with the ablity to make others not see or hear me. not that i go invisable just that i can turn off their senses. i always thought that would be a great mutant power to have.
the other times i am trying to live in my characters shoes. you see i send alot of time writing and i just finished writing a chapter which i will turn into a graphic novel here not too soon, - this fantasy is what usually takes up most of my time. since it takes alot more work to see everything and know exactly what is going on with it.
Anyways.

hey there pukaprat2, geez, that is quite a fantsy to have. I've always fantasize myself being a rock star because I watch too many concert vids that I wish I am one. :D

I'm more of two, means, i live my fantasy and my reality...
and they don't interfere with each other in an any negative way..
i love to dream , and fantasize things can't be real.
but at the same time.. I know that it's just a dream, and try on making my real life some how close to that dream, without disturbing the natural harmony of fiction and none fiction!

The best way is to take little steps at a time, that is for me, because I am not an intense person. Some people like it fast I just take it slow.

Hello there, I wish I can outgrow my love for fantasy. I am taking small steps into the reality world now. :D

I outgrew it when I had my first long relationship with a guy. I guess I didn't need it anymore. Maybe you'll outgrew it when you don't need it anymore, until that time enjoy your stay there, I wish sometimes I could go back myself
Have a nice day

Yeah, the past is in a way a fantasy. There are some people who love to remember the old glorious times and are stuck with them. The reality will always be the present and the current things that is happening. I daydream a lot about the past too. ^^

I prefer fantasy over reality because there, life has no limits; no boundaries. You are free to go to a world of your own, without anyone stopping you to do so. You can do whatever you like and you can imagine things for the sake of it. I really love dreaming of an alternate universe.

i'm a scorpio. don't know if that means anything to this discussion but i think i'm a very realistic and practical person. though i love fantasy stories because for awhile at least i'm relieved of the stress the reality is giving me. lol

Hey,kusumi.Of course I believe in reality.I don't like to dream and I prefer to set a goal then achieve it in the shortest time.I don't know whether it is related to the star signs,by the way,I am a Gemini.I think you can be described as a "otaku" in Japanese.Because "otaku"s are always lost in their own world and don't care about the rest of the society and usually they have diffculty in communicating with others,just like your situation.

Hi,kusumi.My situation is similar to you.People around me almost don't understand why I love a Japanese girl that much.We really have much in common.

Sometimes I become so embedded in my own way of thinking that I cannot differentiate between my reality and another. Even so, this is still my reality, even though others may think it a fantasy. Likewise, what others consider their reality, to me, is a fantasy land.
You seem to indicate a similar way of being.
