Sleep talking

Locke89 · 05/10/2018 17:29

this morning I was sleeping, and I heard my boyfriend cussing and yelling at me putting me down in his sleep, what I would like to know is why he is cussing at me when I haven't done anything wrong. Is it the truth when you talk in your sleep?

Haha no. Last week I dreamt DD had put butter on her feet and in doing so transformed the kitchen into a butter skating rink. I woke her up telling her of for making a mess. Spoiler: this was not real.

Is it the truth when you talk in your sleep?

Where would you possibly have got this idea from?

I once shouted ‘it’s the new Cadbury’s twirl’ in my sleep. I do not like twirls.

Talking in your sleep bears no relation to the truth

DH once sat up, patted his knees and said 'all the baldy men' in a weird baby voice. Definitely no truth in dream speech.

My DH told me (the next morning) that I’d poked him in the face and told him I was looking for library books while I was sleep talking. As I was actually asleep and the library was closed I can only presume there wasn’t even a small grain of truth in my sleep talking!

Cadburys Twirl! I'm dying 😂

Apparently I once said to my ex, at about 5am
Me: I'm going to Waitrose, what do you want
Him: ....
Me: I said I'm going to Waitrose, what do you want!
Him: ....Um, nothing?...
Me: Finally!
Me:

I love that even when unconscious, I'm being aspirational. I mean I could have said Aldi...

Same ex. This will date me.

We bought a Sony Playstation and about 10 games off a colleague. So this was late 90s I guess. One of the games was Sonic the Hedgehog. Ex and I played this for hours, several days in a row. Then on Friday, went to the pub and got wankered, got home and rolled into bed.

Ex was asleep. I put my arm across his stomach and he suddenly shouted "Spiky things are jumping on my tummy!"

My Mum sat bolt upright and announced to Dad "I'm separating the Artisans from the Partisans" lay down and went back to sleep!

TallulahBetty · 05/10/2018 18:19

Cussing? You mean swearing?

I'm a massive sleep talker and walker. if I'm speaking the truth then the following has really happened (to name a few):

-My fiance poo'd on the bridesmaids dresses.

I've swallowed a Tesco carrier bag, a remote control, some rocks, a rabbit, copious amounts of gum, a hub cap etc. All of which resulted in me choking to death at the point of waking up

-i've swum the ocean (having neatly rolled up my pj bottoms, and top) much to my husband's amusement.

There's been millions of spiders everywhere on various nights.

i got up at 2 am, got my work clothes and ran the shower before he woke up, and apparently i called him every name under the sun for not waking me up in time for work (I start at 8.30!)

-there's a man living in my wardrobe

there's a little creature who made a cup.of tea and sat watching me sleep!!!

God just thinking about these has made me realise why he left me!!!!!

Seriously though op, he can't help what he dreams, it has no basis in reality for what he thinks of you.

Charlie97 · 05/10/2018 19:33

@StoorieHoose you don't like twirls??

We can't be friends.

Misses point of thread

StoorieHoose · 05/10/2018 19:34

@charlie97 that just means that YOU get to eat all the twirls and I get to eat all the Flakes (vastly superior to twirls)

drspouse · 05/10/2018 19:35

DH is also a sleep talker but he's never said anything amusing. I feel diddled.

Ratarse · 05/10/2018 19:39

I once asked dh what would happen to Indiana Jones if the boulder rolled off.

Charlie97 · 05/10/2018 19:45

@StoorieHoose you talk nonsense!

Twirl the flake without the mess!!!

StoorieHoose · 05/10/2018 19:49

@charlie97 that chocolate jacket that twirls have ruin a perfectly good flake! The best bit about a flake is catching all the wee bits of chocolate still in the wrapper

Charlie97 · 05/10/2018 19:52

@StoorieHoose ok I'll give you that those boxes of chocs that are just flakes are very very good..... but it ends there!!! Fact!

Iputthescrewinthetuna · 05/10/2018 19:53

My DD told me she was going to Ghana. She was 8!
I told my DP I was in a bush waiting for people to move!

None of it truth

PassMeTheBleach · 05/10/2018 19:54

When my brother was about 12, we were both sleeping in the living room of our dad’s flat. He sat up, looked at me and said “I’m just going down to the wine cellar to check on the wine”

Pretty sure this preteen boy in a third-floor flat wasn’t telling the truth then
