To each their own. If you wanna try to find a unicorn, get on social media and get yourself 300 facebook friends like the typical "normal" woman has today.
Did you come to this thread to complain about women or to give advice? If the former then this thread isn't for you. Loll, I love how you only commented on how daydreaming affects my dating life, but had nothing to say about anything else I mentioned.

Either way, I mentioned that I know excessive daydreaming is not healthy, anything to add to that? Any experience dealing with this? Any advice other than "get yourself 300 facebook friends"? Any tips on how to be able to hold better conversations without daydreaming so much? Anything?

My mom tells me I have ADD all of the time, but I never really paid any attention to her. But as time goes on I start to show more and more symptoms of it. That may be something I have to look into. Thanks!

I actually used to do this, but when you have so many daydreams in your head it's hard to keep up and it can get overwhelming. It wouldn't hurt to try doing it again.

Ditto that.

Your brain and mine perhaps work a little differently than those of 'average' people. I think you're a born writer.

Medical professionals can do next to nothing for problems of the mind, they fare better with organic brain issues. ADD is a polite term for selfishness, spoilt bratism. HAd it myself, happy pills do absolutely nothing for self centerdness. The illness exists but its self caused and there are no medications that affect the will.

Mental problems become serious problems when they interfere with work.
