To have been upset with DH? *light hearted*

AIBU? Has anyone else woken up upset with their DP because of something they have done in your dream?

DH got back with his xgf, moved her into our house and then told me not to wake her up because she was asleep in our bed. I was fuming! I can't believe how upset I was with him when I woke up. I told him what an awful man dream DH was! He agreed that Dream DH sounds vile.

Just to add that this is light hearted and of course I didn't remain upset with DH. Just something to lighten the Monday blues!

It's weird when this happens, isn't it?

The other week DP told me he'd had a really bad dream in which I had left him and been really vile about it. When he was telling me about it, he said "I don't think I've ever felt so sad in a dream in my entire life, when I woke up I thought I was going to be crying" Sad

He wasn't upset with me at all when he was telling me about it, and he knows full well that I love him very much and would never leave him in a billion years, but I still somehow felt incredibly guilty about it and felt the need to fuss over him for the entire day even though he obviously didn't expect me to, and I clearly have zero control over what a nightmare version of me does, in his head, while he is asleep Confused

YANBU

My fella went randomly picking some couple and their kids up at the airport at 3am and was showing off speeding and doing fancy spins on the motorway the other night and said he didn’t want me to come with him because I’ll ‘ruin his fun’.

There’s no excuse to be a bastard in a dream.

Yes! I always get cross with DH for his shitty behaviour in my dreams. He points out that it's my subconscious / unconscious mind that's creating these scenarios. Like that's relevant Hmm Bloody logic and reason.

Yep. My 'dream' DH has done some bloody awful things. The worst was taking me and the DC on holiday to a huge country house and after I'd cooked a meal fit for a king informing me that this was in fact our new home. I was very excited until he followed up with the fact that he would be living in the main house with another woman and me and the DC were expected to stay in a very small outbuilding. Dream DH and his mother (who appeared from nowhere) acted as though I was completely insane to have a problem with this. I was still cross with real DH for hours after this one! I suspect I had been watching too many period dramas!

Mine had an affair once in a dream. I genuinely had trouble talking to him the next day.

I had a dream the other night where DW told me she wanted a polyamorous relationship, then presented me with a list of men she'd like to shag. I woke up really upset and hurting!

Dreams can be bloody bizarre.

@Cherrypicker01 Grin that made me laugh. ltb.

MT2017 · 07/10/2019 16:43

DH kissed someone in front of me in my dream. I told him and he said I had done the same thing to him Confused

Weird how totally believable they are at the time though.

My DH frequently wakes up cross with me after I did things in his dreams 🤣

GiveItARestJosephine · 07/10/2019 16:47

I had one of those dreams, DH behaved appallingly. I told him the next morning and he carefully apologised for his behaviour. I said not to be silly, that he didn’t need to apologise. He said, “It’s for the best if I do,” in a very serious voice. Sometimes I think I’m too hard on the poor love.

MayFayner · 07/10/2019 16:51

I’ve got the opposite problem. My dream DH sorted out the lawn in the back garden (currently bare earth) and did a really nice job on it too. I could have cried when I woke up and realised that the garden was still a mud pit Sad

And before anyone says anything, no I won’t do it myself. We’ve a new house and we divided tasks. I’ve done all my jobs 😇

I dreamt that dh had come out as gay... felt so hurt! He wanted to have an affair with the next door neighbour.
