That was hysterical and perfect.

Ok, I'm with the others on this. You need to leave the fantasies to be fantasies. My ex used to drive me nuts because I would mention if I thought someone was attractive or something. The ex would compare anyone I mentioned with himself and conclude that I really wanted to be with someone else. I would reply, if I did, I wouldn't be with you. Just because you get in a relationship doesn't mean your brain dies--ok, sometimes it does.

Those fights my ex caused, along with other silly arguments, did push me away from him. There was too much drama for drama's sake and I found myself defending myself over innocent things. It was more about my ex's insecurity than what was going on with me. So, in effect, it became a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Focus on real issues and challenges with your bf. Leave the imaginary ones in imagination land where they belong. Manage your own insecurity and ask yourself, what is really threatening me in this relationship? Otherwise you may end up pushing him away.
