"(...) egy ifjú a csak a képzeletében élő ideálokat űzve majdnem a mélybe veti magát, de egy hús-vér lány visszatartja és boldogok lesznek" (Petőfi "Tündérálom" című verséről van szó) -- eddig csak "living-breathing girl" ugrott be, de nem tetszik... köszönöm a javaslatokat!

As mentioned above, I don't think there's anything wrong with your "living, breathing girl" either.

As contrasted with "a képzeletében élő ideálok"; either of these terms will do.
