this is going to sound pretty stupid but I'm genuinely curious about what other people do. i can't seem to make it through a day without thinking of a guy, going out with a guy, my future life with a guy...the weird thing is, it's not even one guy! i could really have no feelings for a guy friend but think about them a lot...i guess just because i always have to daydream about someone. how do you stop that??? i know friends with the same problem. just curious about answers. :)

Angelique answered Wednesday October 8 2008, 4:54 pm: I know what you are going through. I go through atleast twenty different fantasies a day about different guys. It used to bother me i always felt like i was living my life in my dreams, and leaving reality in the dust. The reason i think this bothers people so bad is we feel we're wasting so much energy on things we don't even want, when we could be doing more productive things with our minds.
All i can say is don't stop daydreaming, it just means your mind is rich and powerful. What you need to do is channel it. I write books, theres a huge market for romance, and you've got the gift. So just start writing these daydreams down. You won't believe how much it'll put your mind at ease.
If writing isn't for you there are other ways to express youreself and ideas. Music, art, storytelling.
You've just got to find your own thing, and you'll realize that once you really start getting involved in it your daydreams will become less frequent because your keeping that active mind busy. [ Angelique's advice column | Ask Angelique A Question ]

I think that most of us young ladies feel we have to hide some of out hormonal feelings where as guys can just let them out. Don't be worried about what your daydreams could mean, sometimes it is just the fact that you are really close to your friend that makes it easy for your mind to put you two in a situation together.
As far as stopping them, all I could suggest would be to keep busy, but truly you can't fight nature.
On a side note: As I'm sure you have already found, sometimes it is easy to let yourself want to be physical with someone. I would just warn you that you should probably think through the actions you actually intend on carrying out.
