So, this is what I think...If you actually knew these people personally, like were friends with them and knew their actual personality and how they acted and stuff, and wrote a whole bunch of sex scenes with you with them, then that might be an issue...but what you're doing right now is making them into a character. You took a person you find attractive, love and like the persona they put on, and made them into YOUR CHARACTER. It's exactly the same as if you were writing an original fiction and the leading man had a sex scene. Literally nothing wrong with it. You're writing. Writing is fun. Characters have relationships and sex. And if he was supportive of it before, he can be supportive of it now. But if you act all weird about it, maybe he'll feel like he SHOULD feel weird about it. And on that note, you DO feel a little weird about it. So, for your own peace of mind, I'd say you should sit down with him and explain that it's just a story and a character you enjoy writing about and you obviously want to be with him and no one else. That way you can stop feeling weird about it when you write it. Anyway, in conclusion, nothing wrong with writing sex scenes. That's what published writers do, and many of them are in monogamous relationships and marriages, not planning on cheating on their partner.

And, personally, I don't let my husband read what I'm writing while I write it anyway. It's weird and gets me out of the groove. I let him read it when I'm done. But that's my personal writing style. No one can read it until I'm done and have edited it at least once. Good luck!

I don't think it's wrong at all. I think people should realize the difference between real life and fantasy. It's fun to write about people who are famous or imaginary, but that's all it will ever be. I don't think your boyfriend should feel that way. I think he just needs to be a bit more confident in your relationship :)

@ Airi.

I am happy for you and your gf and how you got together.

My boyfriend supports my writing, just not fan-fiction I guess? During NANOWRIMO I was just not into this year and he felt bad for me. He really wanted me to succeed, but since there was so much going on at the time, I couldn't get much done and I just wasn't motivated. He supports my writing, I guess not so much my "crush" on who I am writing about.

I've never felt shy about showing my girlfriend my writing. Whether it's original or fanfiction, I don't feel weary or scared of showing it to her. But I suppose that I'm a bit different than most people who are commenting here. xP My girlfriend and I met through my writing - specifically a bandfiction I was writing at the time. We started talking after she commented on my story for the first time and I guess romance just sort of blossomed there haha. ^^

So I'm not scared to show her my writing because I know she already reads it and that's how we met in the first place. My girlfriend has read my original stories and she's read my fanfictions. She's read the fluffy romances and more explicit scenes... She even asked me to write a sexually explicit story for her featuring the band. xP

The way I see it and the way I've always seen it is that your partner should support your hobbies/passions and you shouldn't be scared to tell them. If your partner doesn't support it then it might be best to reconsider a relationship, you know? I don't see anything wrong with writing fanfiction while you have a boyfriend/girlfriend. ^.^

@ Divine Faery

I understand :D

@ Proud Saiyan Warrior

@ Sassenach

I might talk to him about it. He knows I write fan-fiction, I just think it slipped into his mind that maybe I would prefer someone else like them over himself.

@ bucky.angel

I will definitely give you the link when I write the first two chapters. ;D

@ hannahdollx

Thats exactly me.

@ Stormborn

Yeeeeeah. I don't know how he would be able to handle the sexual content in the story hahaha.

Thank you everyone for the encouraging words. I do feel better about writing, and he seems to understand. I think something just clicked inside his brain, but everything is all good now. So, again, thank you all. You guys are the best people on the internet hahaha.

I was so embarrassed about telling my then- boyfriend now husband about my game of thrones fanfiction. But after he called me a nerd jokingly he actually thought it was really cool. I don't tell him about sexual content though lol

I struggle with this as well. I don't want him to ever ready my stories, but he knows I write and it's that he knows.

It's definitely not wrong. Personally, writing (which is typically fan fiction) is a huge part of me and I wouldn't have been able to go for a whole year without reading or writing it. If you feel like you need to talk to him about it and address the whole "I wouldn't rather be with ___ than you" aspect of it (which I think is the main thing here) then do, otherwise it'll hang over you and there's no point in feeling guilty when you write.

When I had a boyfriend I looked at the situation as it's not self-insertion. Of course there's a little bit of me in every character I write, but as long as I wasn't fully putting myself into these fictional romances then it wasn't crossing a line. There's nothing wrong with creating these new characters and throwing them into a plot of a TV show/movie that I really enjoy and seeing what new situations arise, and so what if there's romance in it too? That's the stories I enjoy writing and reading. He didn't read the majority of my stuff - I didn't want him to and he was okay with that. It was never an issue.

And also, I'm definitely going to need a link to that Bucky Barnes story once it's up

My fiance knows about my crushes from a show I watch, I talk about it all the time. The stuff I write, isn't fan fiction. But it is romance, and usually has to do with some sort of fantasy of mine. He reads my stuff, and takes notes, heh. Like everyone is saying, just talk about it.

My boyfriend reads my stuff - He teases me about it but that's about it, he's pretty supportive. Talk to him about it - He may surprise you.

@ Koda
Everybody has a fantasy crush, rather it's a tv or book character or a celebrity, but I meant hiding the story itself from him.

@ DarkestStorm

Hmm, maybe you guys are right. Thank you both for commenting and helping ease my thoughts on everything.

I think hiding it from him is worse than him reading it. If you're trying to keep him from reading it, just because you think it will upset him or whatever, I think he could take that the wrong way. Like the story means something more than what it actually is, a fictional story.

@ Divine Faery

I am not sure if he does have any fantasy crushes. If he does, he has never shown any interest in it. And he know when I write, he just doesn't know what I am writing.

No, it's not wrong, it's just a story and I'm sure he has fantasy crushes too but that doesn't mean he'd pick them over you and it's the same with you. However you shouldn't hide and be secretive, otherwise what else is he supposed to think?
