There seems to be alot of fantasy blogs, or discussions of fantasies whether adventurous or, well physical. Why is it that we turn online to live out that which we could pursue in reality?

Sometimes the fantasies keep a person sane, out of jail for the commission of murdering someone, and less angry toward the world. Some people are lonely, hurting or struggling to stay alive in reality and the fantasy they put themselves into can keep them grounded. Yes, reality can be bad or sad but the fantasy one puts him/herself into gives them a break, or breath of fresh air. Life is to be enjoyed. Fantasies can give happiness and joy to ease the pains in life. On the Internet, you can be yourself without having to answer to anyone or be the person you want to be. Fantasies can be safer than doing drugs.

Because fantasy can often be more fun and more interesting than reality. And, in most instances, it's safer on the Internet. It only gets dangerous when we try to live out our Internet fantasies in reality.

I think that might be because in most cases reality really sucks! What's to like about it? Bills, problems at work and/or school, kids, daily routines... This virtual world becomes an escape for tired minds, bored people, adventurous spirits, etc. And it's easy to get caught up in it because anonymity is a great friend to have.

Because a fantasy stimulates the mind into a feel good method.. It’s like a dream that is so relaxing.. When you put them both together "cough" who knows what could happen lol Expecially if it has to do with sex... "wink"

I think some people are dreamers and may be too scared to change or like it like that.
