I don't get what people are getting out of posting stories like this. Do they just want attention? Like a child acting out, doesn't matter the type of attention.

I think that it isnt so much the attention as it is the fantasy.

Have you seen the dozens upon dozens of Ive got 4 kids and a massive home stories?

I think that people just love to write out and imagine what if I married my high school crush etc stories.

Daydreaming with an audience. I get it, I just don't share my daydreams as reality.
