Practically every morning my partner feels the need to give me the full details of her dirty dreams from the night. Is this usual and what is it I'm expected to do with the information beyond smile and nod my head glumly?

She says she is only telling me because she tells me everything. This is probably true but I'm still not sure it's that 'normal'.

There's nothing abnormal about it apart from the fact that she's doing it when you don't like it. Can she not tell that you don't like it? Or does she know but not care? Either way is worrying. I would suggest you directly but non aggressively ask her to stop, and see how the situation envelops from there.

"She says she is only telling me because she tells me everything."

That is a justification, not an exact truth (obviously).

If she is too thick-skinned to realise the unfortunate cumulative effect that this is having, then I suspect you'll either have to become expert at deflecting attention onto non-dream subjects (perhaps by altering morning routine a bit?) and instead find other times of day to talk, when a more varied and interesting set of subjects can be covered.

Hang on a minute. She's telling you about her erotic dreams about your colleagues, and you seem to be feeling only mild irritation at this? I'd be seriously fucked off, and would be questioning my partner's motives behind this.

I'm sure part of her reasoning for telling me is a mix of a desire to share and a desire for me to interpret the dreams for/with her.

you could keep a kinky sex journal then when the both of you are in the mood you could try out various ideas.

Interpreting dreams is about as reliable as reading someone's Horoscope and believing it means anything. Its just a bunch of random made up things isnt it?.

Just wondering on what basis she thinks you are qualified to interpret stuff that she describes to you from inside her head
