Dreaming about the other sex

[GraziLovesMary]

I rarely dream; my sleeping habits often cause me to skip the REM stage almost completely. When I DO dream, it is almost always filled with gratuitious violence. In my dreams, I am usually pitted against the most rediculous odds, outmanned, outgunned... everything is so vivid and real in my dreams. My emotions are real, my physical responses are mirrored in my real world movements... but in these violent dreams I slip out of the hold of emotion.

It is very rare that I have a peaceful dream involving females (for the most part, dreams involving females are the only peaceful ones I have), but every once in a while it does happen.. Ill dream about some strange scenario, and a number of characters from my everyday and not-so-everyday life play their part.

However... there have been a number of dreams where the characters are always hidden from me upon awakening. The last dream I had was probably 3 months ago. I know Ive mentioned it on here a couple times, but the entire dream took place in the delivery room. My first son was born, and in my dream I cried. It was very significant to me, because the last time I cried was when Robby died. Before that, the last time I cried was sometime when I was 9 years old, and my cousin was on an AWACS plane that sucked 12 geese into an engine and exploded at 10,000 feet. Thats a hefty gap.. and for a while, I didnt think I could even cry anymore. Im pretty sure that I will not cry again until the moment that my first child is born.

What was even more significant, was that upon awakening, I could not remember the face of the woman who had just given birth to our child. I would assume that means that I havent met her yet, but that could also be nothing more than an empty space in my imagination matrix... who knows? Still.... ominous, to say the least...

Dreaming about the other sex I am not talking about having sex in your dreams...but you can talk about that if you wish..I am talking about recurring dreams with the same person in them..I am not lonely, I am not desperate..but for some reason, since the day me and this girl broke up over 5 years ago. I have had dreams about her at least a couple times a week....sometimes I wish I could just forget.. Do you dream about anybody? Rating: 5

If you don't dream, it's probably the weed. Always found weed stops you dreaming...

Not the weed. I rarely dreamt before I even started smoking.

Its because I go through my REM stage very quickly, if at all. I usually only sleep for about 2-4 hours a night.. I wont go to bed until I know I will pass out immediately.. Ill catch a few deep hours of restorative sleep, and wake up right when I need to. If I spend any time in REM stage during the wakeup, it isnt much. If I actually do end up dreaming by some chance, I must not remember it.

However, I doubt that scenario, because Ill dream regardless of whether I am high or not, and I always at least remember the fact that I dreamt. And my dreams are very lucidly vivid.
