I cheated on my husband!

81 replies

MooPointCowsOpinion · 03/04/2016 10:16

... In my dream last night. I even remember thinking "Mr MooPoint will not like this!"

I don't remember the specifics of the cheat but I felt very guilty upon waking up. I hardly have time for my own husband so I don't know how I could manage a bit on the side, I assume in my dream universe I have a different job that's not 60 hours a week and my one year old is much older and sleeps through the night...!

I'm either completely bonkers for feeling guilty or there's some deep psychological problem that my subconscious is trying to tell me about.

Have you ever dream cheated? Did you confess?

I've dreamed of shagging Idris Elba a few times. I'm sure my husband would be okay with it though, he's on my Celebrity Out List Wink

When pregnant I dreamt that the baby was guy martin's. I told my dh the next morning and he said he'd have done the same, guy Martin is his man crush lol.

Yeah I've had those dreams before - I might have mentioned them to DH. They don't mean anything! I dream about virtually anything and have vivid dreams most nights so I've learnt not to read anything into what I dream about!

I had to decide whether to run off with Colin Firth the other night. He was single, I was single not wearing my wedding ring and well, I'm still here with DH.

All the time. Usually with Dean Winchester and/or Crowley. The ones with them together are very weird. I really should stop watching supernatural before bed.

I tell OH about them. Its really funny. He doesn't have sex dreams and is a bit jealous.

BennyTheBall · 03/04/2016 23:26

I have no idea why, but I dream about my first love frequently.

We were together for 5 years, from 18 to 23 and we were totally besotted with each other.

We are both very happily married to other people now, I guess my subconscious likes to remind me of that all consuming passion!

I used to frequently dream-shag Jeremy Clarkson when I was pregnant. I blame it on the hormones.

I have also dream-shagged James Hunt a few times. (Not even the delicious Hemsworth version from Rush, the actual dead James!)

I love a good sex dream.

ILeaveTheRoomForTwoMinutes · 03/04/2016 23:52

I've dream cheated loads, with famous people, strangers or people I know, I sometimes tell dh, he finds it funny.

The one I cringe about though, was my boss at the time. It had been a very intense dream with lots of emotion too. It unfortunately left be me with that lingering feeling that I couldn't shake. She was the first person I saw when I went into work that day, and I still felt in the dream. I remember panicking telling myself it was only a dream. Something must have shown on my face, as she asked if I was OK Shock

Luckily I hid for the rest of the day whilst it wore off.

I once had an incredibly wonderful session with Sean Bean from his Lady Chatterly days in a dream that has stuck with me vividly ever since. Even the straw against my back felt real enough I almost think it was something that actually happened. (It didn't, more's the pity). Zero guilt.

I once dream cheated with Ben Fogle who was covered in a soft ginger fur all over like a bee. It was rather lovely.

greedygorb · 04/04/2016 11:44

I had a series of sex dreams about Les Dawson. That was weird.

SausageSmuggler · 04/04/2016 11:53

I have a bit of a harmless crush on someone IRL and I've dream cheated with them a few times. I don't tell DH but tbh I don't think he'd be bothered!

LondonHuffyPuffy · 04/04/2016 12:13

DH dream cheated on me once and I hit him! Blush I mean actually hit him, whilst I was still asleep. He woke up pretty bloody quickly, poor bloke.

georgiatraher · 04/04/2016 12:23

Sometimes comes up that I dream of cheating with exes (even more distressing than usual due to history!) But I would never tell DP, its just my fear manifesting itself, and a good cuddle with sleeping DP puts it out of my head again. I still feel guilty, but you can't blame yourself for your unconscious mind going hay wire.

99percentchocolate · 04/04/2016 12:27

I dreamt about James Spader as Raymomd Reddington the other night. It was shit. No sex, just lots of looks and flirty comments amongst gun fire.

chanelfreak · 04/04/2016 12:33

My poor DH is dream-cheated on quite a lot! I never seem to remember I'm married in dreams and let's just say, I am a cheap date.
Had a very steamy encounter with Jason Isaacs last night (regular dream-cheat subject) involving some fairly heavy S&M. I blame the bloody book I'm reading (Maestra if anyone is interested) for that one.

oliviaclottedcream · 04/04/2016 12:37

I soooooooooooooo wish I could say the same. I dream of oiling the living room door hinges and my need of bin liners

PestilentialCat · 04/04/2016 13:02

i dream cheat all the time it's the only sex I get Grin

sleeponeday · 04/04/2016 15:07

Voldemort, Vladimir Putin and Jeremy Kyle?!

Some of you are just twisted. Grin

I had a lovely, really hot, dream about Benedict cumberbatch as sherlock, it was so romantic and we were madly in love. Woke up all hot and bothered - definitely kept it quiet from DH! Thing is it felt so real and I really missed him. Was bit sad for a week! I always tell DH when I have dream sex with someone I don't fancy but this did actually feel like I was cheating for a while!
