Before you get too far along in these imaginations about your neighbor, (and consider leaving your husband), I hope you\u2019ll splash some cold water on your face and remind yourself that &#8211; indeed &#8211; you don\u2019t know your neighbor at all!<\/p>\n<p>The reason why fantasy is exciting is because it\u2019s fantasy. It \u00c3\u00ads always going to be exciting and romantic and candlelit and passionate. (Have you ever fantasized about a really horrible, dull, empty relationship?<\/p>\n<p>But you are wise enough to know that committed relationships, especially with children, require a great deal more depth and balance to sustain them than simple romance. Sexual attraction is easy. Building a mutually nurturing relationship with another person &#8211; and creating a loving home for your children? Wow! Now that\u2019s an accomplishment!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s natural to be curious about other people, but it\u2019s wise to be realistic about your attractions. (Did I mention that you don\u2019t know this person?) Also, you write to us that you are content in your marriage. Millions of people around the world would love to trade places with you. You have a happy home and family life.<\/p>\n<p>The Dream Doctor\u2019s advice? Don\u2019t lose sleep over these dreams. Be proud of what you have created at home &#8211; in the real world &#8211; and work to keep the fires warm.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\"><\/p>\n<p><span><span style=\"color: red;\">Back to the <a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/articles\/man-next-door\/\" id=\"1031\" option=\"com_content\">original dream<\/a> <br \/>Back to list of <\/span><span style=\"color: purple;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/articles\/romance-dreams\/\" id=\"31\" option=\"com_content\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\">romance dreams<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[3202,3184],"class_list":["post-36089","articles","type-articles","status-publish","hentry","category-copy-of-romantic-attraction","category-romance-dreams-answer"],"acf":{"article_id":"1086"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles\/36089","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/articles"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36089"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36089"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
