AIBU to feel unsettled by DH telling me about his soulmate dream?

Is he coming down with something or unsettled by something else in his life? There's nothing to be read into it, but it sounds quite a horrid dream really. If you're concerned he's seen some kind of meaning in it - talk to him! Ask him how it's made him feel.

Literally, my dreams can be crazy. I’ve murdered someone and now have to cover it up, I’m being hunted. That I’m a man and I’m having sex with random women. I think my dads been naked in my dream before, which disturbed me. I can morph between being myself, to being a whole new character, sometimes my dreams are feature length film worthy. I don’t know why anyone would put too much stock in a dream.

OP, I’d tell my wife about that dream as it sounded disturbing and if she then got jealous of the dream I’d think she was a bit psycho tbh

I tell my husband if I have dreams about other men. He doesn't care.

Dreams are often insane. YABU.

I'd rather have a jar of delicious lemon curd than a mean friend!

Dreams are a way of your brain untangling stuff and working through and processing. It's not always literal. Sometimes it's just a load of random meaningless images that your brain is putting deciding whether to keep or forget.

He sounds like he found the dream unsettling which was probably why he wanted to talk to you about it.

I guess one interpretation might be that his subconscious is working through him accepting that he has found what he needs. Not necessarily a relationship, maybe his job or something else significant.

He was a well known personality appearing on the TV- you might have been watching Countdown. So of course it's possible he was in your mind before you had the dream.

I dreamt I had sex with Paul Daniels. I think I’d rather be shot by Richard Whiteley 😳

Sorry you’ve totally overreacted. Then overreached. The poor guy had a fucking nightmare - and YOU threw a strop and walked off? Don’t worry - he won’t tell you anything now. It’s a DREAM. Two days ago I dreamt my dad was a giant slice of cheddar cheese and I had to ‘catch him’ using a butterfly net. Does this mean something?! I fucking hope not.

I can understand you feeling a bit defensive when he spoke about a ‘soulmate’ in the dream; soulmate could potentially mean a yearning/want for more emotional connection - not with someone else, but with you, perhaps? The shoe thing, in dream interpretation, can symbolise a fear of judgment or a sense of shame and the attack bit after being promised connection, could suggest an internal conflict with one part looking for more emotional closeness/intimacy and another part expecting rejection/hurt. Dream interpretation isn’t a science, obviously, it’s very interpretative so just thoughts really. You mentioned your DH was hesitant and somewhat reluctant to say what the dream was about, perhaps he felt anxious about it, even if it didn’t make sense to him. Dreams can sometimes bring unconscious anxieties to the surface, even if we don’t ‘understand’ the content, the feeling it leaves can be a clearer indication, if you understand me.

It was just a strange dream. I’ve dreamt about cheating on my husband a few times, and told him about it afterwards. He doesn’t care, they were dreams.

I dreamt that Jensen Ackles was really mean to me when he was supposed to be my friend. Then he turned into lemon curd and I carried 'him' around in a jar.

I once dreamed that I was shot by Richard Whiteley. So I can assure you, you’re wrong.

Dreams are inexplicable. Of course they are or there would be a definitive proven handbook. There isn't. There may be strands of something you've taken from the day but it's stretched and bent out of shape and mixed in with a shit-ton of other bollocks and nothing makes sense.
Sometimes dreams are really fast and intense - really intense. When that happens it's perfectly normal to tell someone about it. They can unsettle you and I'd expect my partner to be very comfortable telling me about that knowing I would never judge what is essentially a load of ethereal unintelligible bollocks.

You’re a bit unreasonable. By dream logic, if his soulmate just beat him up with shoes and made nasty faces at him, that might mean you are going to hurt him!

Or it might mean someone is offering him something that seems really special, but is actually a nasty trick and will hurt and disappoint him.

Or it might mean he has a soul mate somewhere else, but that soulmate hates him.

Whatever it means, he came to his partner for a bit of tlc and told off.

😂

I’ve dreamt about cheating on and murdering my partner and having sex with my dad. Do you think people choose what they dream about? It’s a subconscious manifestation of things you’re thinking about, yes, but it’s not literal. I certainly wouldn’t choose to spend time thinking about those dream topics. You’re completely overreacting.

Sounds demonic, seriously. Who or what was finding him this 'soulmate' that then proceeded to abuse him? Not a nice dream. Why is he dreaming that? Can't answer that one, not enough information. It's disturbing though, and he's telling you because he may be frightened by it.

If you find him knocking around the local Clarks start worrying 😅

This would be concerning to me too OP. Especially if he is emphasising on how he found his “soulmate” in his dream and quite excited about that.
