You guys are soooo right.
I started fantasizing as a child. I grew up in a home where my parents couldn't stand each other but stayed married anyhow...until I was in 11th grade.
My father was unhappy and took it out on us kids...we were punished severly for making mistakes...not being bad, well sometimes...but for making mistakes.
I was in a big hurry to get married...imagining what a happy family life would be. Because of that hurry and from me being sooo naive...I made one mistake after another.

Had I not had my 'pretend world' to get me thru...I don't know how I would have turned out.

I identified with celebrities and they were what I needed them to be.

This is a very natural thing to do...escape reality and go to a place in your mind where you are happy!

I have a very great life and family now...even tho it took years to get there and boy do I appreciate them!!!!
I thank God everyday for them!!!!

I think that we all go through a crazy childhood, I should write a book...... The depth of hurt that I experienced at 14, when my 15 yr old brother drowned is immeasurable. The scars took too many years to heal.
I love to escape from reality, and I find myself thinking exactly what you said: I identified with celebrities and they were what I needed them to be.
I cried so hard when Ben prayed at Marie's grave, Dear Lord, We know our beloved will rest at your side and have eternal peace and happiness. It is for us mortals left behind that we pray, as we are who need your guidance, now that the light of our lives has gone out.
Again Ben (Danny) touched a nerve in my soul...he IS what I need him to be!!!!
