So what if you are someone who fantasizes during sex but you keep it to yourself? Does that count a psychological arousal? And what if the person you're fantasizing about isn't the person you're actually having sex with? That can be confusing. You might start to wonder, "What's going on here? Am I bored? Am I not into the sex? Am I cheating in my mind? Should I push those thoughts out of my head?" No. Our fantasies are our allies.

You don't fear them. You follow them.
