I feel like that shit is not normal. I can’t even imagine the people saying it’s normal being in relationships with other people

it helps to fill your mind with positive things instead, like instantly switch thoughts. cuz like intrusive thoughts are mostly not your fault, it just depends what u do with them

i think that it’s normal And it’s normal to have conflicted or guilty feelings about it. like it’s kind of a moral grey area. bottom line though is that you aren’t harming anyone as long as you’re keeping the details of those fantasies to yourself

It’ll make me feel gross regardless so I try not to think about anything. But I relate to you

It does seem like an intrusive thought, I used to have similar ones, including to people I was not at all attracted to. Like you said don’t be too hard on yourself, it’s not hurting anybody else and you can’t help it. In my experience they started to be less frequent when I stopped beating myself up over them.
