Aibu to be cross with Benedict Cumberbatch

Last night I had a dream about BC, somehow we had a daughter and he refused to claim parentage. In my dream I loved my baby girl despite feeling too old to be a new mum again, but was really cross with BC as even though he is married and it might have ruined his career, he should have acknowledged his baby!
Somehow the fact I have a lovely husband wasn't in my dream at all! 😳

Anyone else cross with someone because of a dream.

I dreamt dp and i had gone out to buy a wok
(We ready own one)
Mine was a good quality,expensive wok but his was a cheap,nasty wok with a cheap green trim
We bought 'his' wok and I woke up in a foul mood over my 'dream wok'

Didn't help he laughed when I told him-that put me in a worse mood!

My mum didn’t speak to my Dad for 5 days of a month long trip to Florida, when I was a kid.

In her dream he had tricked her. Told her that he had booked for her to swim with dolphins but it was just gold fish.

I dreamt my husband had cheated. I was devastated. He bought me flowers to say sorry he had cheated in my dream 🤣

I love hazelnut yoghurt, and DH knows this. One night I dreamed he bought an entire pallet of them and brought them home in the boot of his car. I was furious with him because they were really expensive and I couldn't eat them before they went out of date. I was really cross with him for the first hour of the next day in reality and then sounded like an utter lunatic when I explained it to him.... 😂 🤣

I dreamt recently that I was doing the ironing. I woke up cross with myself for wasting a dream Grin

@MillicentTrilbyHiggins I'm cross with myself that I had a child with BC but none of the fun stuff beforehand, waste of a dream!

I’ve dreamt the same thing quite a few times; I’m a teenager and I sleep in and miss an exam in high school and I’m furious with my mum for not waking me up and getting me to the exam.
When I wake up, I’m still a little angry with my poor mum! I’m 34!

I once dreamt that a good friend of mine had given me some green and black chocolates. I told him and he sent me an enormous box of snack size g&b bars lol

Potatofarl · 08/09/2023 13:31

Ha. I know someone in the business who has worked with him and said he’s a complete dick, if that helps.

SweetPetrichor · 08/09/2023 13:37

I had a dream last night that my dad said my choice of new car was crap and that I should cancel the reservation...I woke up so annoyed and stressed!

In real life, I don’t actually know his opinion yet…I was only in the showroom yesterday and I’ve yet to speak to him, but clearly it’s high stress in my mind and my sleeping brain decided to take a punt on framing the scenario! 😂

I had a horrile dream last night in which my DH took me away to a remote hotel for what I thought was going to be a lovely romantic getaway, but in reality he was planning to torture, kill and dismember me and then compost my remains for our allotment. He'd even brought a green wheelybin to take me home in!

PurpleButterflyWings · 08/09/2023 13:56

Benedict Cumberbatch?! 🤮

Rather you than me @Theblackdogagain I wouldn't want kids who had a 50% chance of looking like him. 🤮

Youthinkyoureuniqueyourejustastatistic · 08/09/2023 13:59

Not cross but so sad.
I woke up absolutely sobbing because in my dream my husband had decided to divorce me.
That wasn’t the problem as such.
It was that he was so cool, and collected over it - had a blue document wallet with all his ducks in a row. Had thought it all through, told me what exactly was to happen and had been planning for months . Haha. I cried myself back to sleep.

I've had horrific dreams that made me completley irrational afterwards (I threw away an item of clothing because my child was wearing it in a dream where something horrible happened - I didn't want it in my house let alone on my child!).....and I've also woken up very angry with my partner for things he did in my dream. Its amazing how vivid they can be!

Riddlesinthedark · 08/09/2023 15:25

I had a dream last week that Henry Cavill invited me to go save the world with him. Not Superman, Henry Cavill. DH prevented me from going and I woke up very cross with him

Nellieinthebarn · 08/09/2023 15:31

I woke up absolutely livid with my DS. We were getting ready to go to a wedding, but when I went to get his clothes out he had cut them all up into tiny pieces. Ex-husband was shouting to get him dressed as we would be late, I was frantically pulling out masses and masses of useless rags while small son stood by and watched. I was furious. DS in dream was about 3, he is now 35, and I haven't been with NotDExH for over 20 years! Goodness knows what that was all about.

I got told off in a dream last night for trying to nick a very long prosthetic leg from the back of a lorry. I felt a bit miffed as the leg was only going to the tip and I'd only taken it because I thought it was a tree trunk I could chop for firewood.

OP, I think your dream has better potential!

This trick has potential...

I had a dream that I could earn a small but significant second income if I planted pineapple trees in the garden. They don't even grow on trees! I'm still sad about the missed income.

tt9 · 08/09/2023 17:59

@TotalOverhaul dammit! I should have told him I dreamt that he lent me a lot of money. missed a trick there.

interestingly, someone (absolute stranger) called my mum the other day and said that he had been given her number in a dream 😂and that he dreamt she would give him a job in our family business? new scam idea lol
