I am SO embarrassed right now.

The imaginary conversation was between me and a singing idol of mine. We were collaborating on something together when he suddenly announced that he had feelings for me and could no longer work with me, didn't want to cheat on his wife etc.....BlushBlushBlush

I thought my husband had come up to bed 10 mins earlier and only realised when I got upstairs, that he was actually sat in the room off our kitchen!

FUCK!!! This is mortifying. He hasn't mentioned it but he surely heard me!

AIBU to run away and never come back?!

Mulberrypeony - I have very vivid dreams, and a very active imagination! I definitely have conversations in my head, as well as talking to myself out loud when I am busy (ie running through a to do list as I am doing the tasks). I also mumble to myself when walking down the street -really have jerk myself into not doing it! This post is hilarious!

He either didn't hear me (unlikely)

Heard me and is so traumatised by it that he dare not mention it

Heard me and doesn't want to embarrass me by bringing it up

He's actually been away working since the incident in question and he has a terrible memory at the best of times so it's probably been long forgotten anyway!

And I've continued to have multiple conversations with myself over the past few days! But only in the car and only playing the part of myself Grin

Don't Cringe op. It's actually very healthy to act out scenarios like this!
I very often talk to myself and have full-blown conversations with myself. I do occasionally get pee'd off with myself though, when I answer back sharply to myself, and end up having an argument with myself! But it is a very healthy way to work through various dilemmas and/or feelings! This is meant genuinely, don't over-think it, chill out and smile about it.
