He said maybe it was all just in his head, but the best love stories play out in your head, where everyone always said the right thing and ended up happily ever after." What does 'play out in your head' mean here? Thanks a lot. Anonymous Countries, France

What you want to happen or pretend will happen is rarely as wonderful as what happens in reality. This is very confusion passage with so many pronouns.
