Am I the only girl that does this? I'm alone. In a bad situation. Scared. I scream (for whatever reason) and it's my guy's name. I realized, I have this weird background thought process going on, that if I feel I am in some sort of trouble I can't get myself out of, I feel like I should be able to call his name and he'll come running/magically appear or something.
I know how dumb that sounds, believe me, but I find myself reacting this way anyway. And I think this is why, when I call him on the phone, or even call for him in the house, and he doesn't answer, I get panicky.
Do any other girls (or do you know any girls) that also have this kind of boyfriend/husband-hero complex?
I mentioned it to my guy and his friends and there was a lot of eye rolling and chuckling going on, haha!
Editing to add my post to this as clarification of what I'm talking about:
In hindsight (it IS 20/20) I totally understand some of the creeped out reactions. I myself know some of the people you all must be channeling to get these reactions. It's not.. quite.. what I meant though. xD
I'm married to my guy and we have two children. At times it seems we are far past the realm of romance and fantastical dates, but there are still qualities about him I admire, and no matter what, when I think of him, I still think of him the same way I did when we first met, as someone to love and admire, and think of a little like a hero.
When he goes on long trips out of the country for work and something at the house happens like my two year old is being particularly awful or the power goes out, I'll still think of him, and sometimes I'll still mumble his name (usually mumble rather than proclaim, as that would freak out the babies xD). And sometimes I wish he could just magically appear and be back by my side. That's not to say I'm helpless when he's not around, or I spend all of my time in the fetal position because he's not with me. But it's in little moments, that you want to be with someone so much, that you have a flicker of a thought like, well he is supposed to be thousands of miles away, but, maybe he'll be right here, right now.
I still get annoyed/anxious when he doesn't answer his phone anyway. Because it's incredibly often. And usually at the worst moment ever. But I reserve the right to nag.

And any misconceptions (or not I guess) are my fault. I had a question/topic, and I figured most people weren't married, so I tried to make it incredibly vague (in my head that meant relateable).
