I don't think there's any indication that Bashir would turn down the real Dax if she flung herself at him.


** That, and part of the fun for Bashir seems to be the chase. He’s known to be a bit of a ladies man, but his only serious relationship is with Leeta, and that only lasts around a year. It’s also a possibility that Bashir accepts pretty quickly that nothing will ever happen between him and Dax, so the flirting is just consensual fun, with both knowing it won’t go anywhere. Hence why the Dax who is all over him is uncomfortable.

* Bashir is remarkably immune to the imaginary Dax's advances. But this is Star Trek, and there are Holo-Suites on board the station, which are explicitly used for sexual fantasies. If Bashir wanted a dalliance with a fictional Dax, he could do it at any time.

* While most of the crew have wish-fulfillment fantasies, Kira imagines the hallway bursting into flames. Given her history, this is clearly a glimpse into her PTSD.
