That sounds romantic, if somewhat curiously defensive.
I have a film suggestion for you. It's called The Fall and it was made in 2006. It tells the story of a handsome injured stunt man entertaining an imaginative little girl while they are both recovering in hospital. He tells her an epic story of cowboys and indians, but he is unaware that she has unexpectedly broad cultural references and that she is imagining an entirely different setting to the one he is describing. It's only fair to warn you that it gets emotional, but no more so than ET. Stick with it and it has a happy ending.
