maladaptive daydreaming about socialising

[blood-orange]

Do any other lonely people constantly maladaptive daydream about scenarios where they are in a social group?
Like today i have just spent hours fantasising about having friends, and just in general being accepted for who i am in a group.
It is so sad, you'd think this would drive me to socialize more because a lack of social interaction is obivously driving me to daydream like this. However it doesn't and i just continue to daydream instead. I just wish i could get out of my own head.

Not about groups. I don't care about belonging. I daydream about having a girlfriend or a wife, maybe kids. I don't do it as much anymore, but I would daydream about that.

Yeah and it gets bad where I'll zone out and start whispering to myself and even gesturing like I was talking to a person in real life. It's been happening since I was a kid but when I was a kid it was like a fanfic in my head for a show I loved.

i love sleeping and having my brain generate stuff about hanging around with friends, sleepovers, and watching tv together. it hurts more when the dream ends and i want to go back to it. when i try to daydream it ends up becoming me napping.
