"I lied in bed and pictured him with someone
else--saw myself driving over to his house,
barging in and getting hysterical. I became a
crazy woman in my imagination, desperate to
get him back while he and his new girlfriend
just looked pitifully at me and threatened to
call the police."
Oh my gosh, this is so funny--I've had anger fantasies
involving an ex that were _just_ like that! In fact,
in one of them, after I burst into the house, demanding him back,
a big fight ensues, where I jump on his back and I'm just livid...I
said to his girlfriend "Do you think you can have what's MINE?!" And
like your fantasy/nightmare...they just look at me pitifully and call
the police. That's what makes it even worse--that they're so calm and
I'm so hysterical...they really pity me...Once I could actually laugh at the fantasy...actually I think I did
laugh when I pictured myself jumping on his back...I realized "Man, I should
start writing down these little fantasies...it would probably be therapeutic and
it's funny anyway...and maybe eventually they could be scenes in a book or something"...So I started writing them down. You should try it...put some of that
great writing ability you have to use!
