Are good dreams really better than bad dreams?

[EpyonXero]

So Im single, and lately Ive been working a lot of overtime so I havent even been able to go out. But I keep having these dreams where Im dating these great girls, everyday hanging out type things. The girls seem to be different in each dream but the theme is the same. The dreams are realistic enough that when I wake up and realize I was dreaming, Im actually disappointed to be back to reality.

On the other hand Ive had dreams with the opposite effect. For example, in college I dreamed that I failed all of my classes and was kicked out of school. I was definitely happy when I woke up and realized that was a dream. During the Iraq invasion, I had a dream I was an embedded reporter in a USMC Stryker when it was attacked and I had to escape home while being chased by Iraqis (:lol:). It was a pretty good dream but when I woke up I was definitely relieved.

So my question is, it better to have a dream that scares you or otherwise makes you thankful to have the life you have? Or is it better to have pleasant dreams that have the side effect of making you disappointed in the real world?

I don't either is better. You need to have both to appreciate the other, as with everything in life.

Reality has always been a dissapointment to me

I will take the good dream all day every day (or night). Screw the bad dreams. I had one dream where I was running through the woods like Sly Stallone in First Blood. I also did the leap off the cliff and landed in the big ass tree. I woke up before having to sew up my own arm. I felt like I hit the ground as I woke up. Screw that shit.

Maybe, but I'd much rather have the better dreams. While I appreciate waking up from the bad ones knowing that it was just a dream, I don't really enjoy the stress in the bad dreams and the stress doesn't seem to be worth it, even when I wake up and realize it was just a dream. I've had some fucked up dreams these last few days, and have NOT enjoyed them. I need some nice, relaxing sleep!!

I voted the first option but after reading ur post I'm sure abt my vote. U simply confused me.

I want nothing but good dreams. If tt means tt I'm dreaming of a threesome with chicks tt will never happen cause I'm married to somebody else. Then so be it. I want those dreams. Or the dream of me doing the hot teacher like all the kids get these days. Yea. I'll take tt too.

How does tt fit in with ur question?

[Rangerscott]

I have nightmares when I have to pee while I'm asleep.

I have nightmares when I have to pee while I'm asleep.

maybe that`s my problem. i`ve woken up the past several nights because of that. wonder if it`s causing me to have bad dreams?

[Dave]

i find ambient temperature has a lot to do with whether i dream or not

[Gas Man]

I find it difficult to remember one way or the other.

But are you disappointed when you wake up and see the 3-some didnt actually happen?

Shit, you guys are lucky you still remember your dreams at all. I haven't remembered more than 5 dreams in the past year.

I don't remember most of my dreams either. I do know I had a dream and to tell someone about it I can't. It's one of those moments tip of the tongue moments where you know but can't actually say it.

[derf]

Those dreams just mean u need to get laid more

[EpyonXero]

Trust me, Im clear on the meaning.

i can remember a strong 80%. the big problem is i'll have dozens in one night and they shift and run together into each other. the best are when i realize that im dreaming and that i can do whatever i please with no fear of consequences. i dont get those very often but they are fantastic when they occur

[NONE_too_SOFT]

the dreams i remember are so fucked up im either happy to be awake or wish i was still dreaming. But i've had re-occuring dreams since i was a kid, and while they used to be nightmares when i was little they're pretty amusing now. Its like going on vacation sometimes, im a very strange sleeper, i not only have lucid dreams, but i tend to sleep-talk, and walk, and other weird shit. girls tell me this all the time and i just dont know what to tell them.

I'd opt for the pleasant one. My bad dreams leave me feeling tired, stressed and unrefreshed.

Im weird tho, I dream alot but I can typically change my dreams as Im dreaming them to make them happen how I want, and if I cant get it right I just rewind and try it again, tho if I get distracted it will wander off in strange directions. :lol: I always know Im dreaming, even in the bad ones, sometimes I just cant wake up so I remake them better.

I think ebbs saw proof of this last year when you tried to get in bed with him.

[Rider]

I don't remember my dreams at all. Either that or I just don't dream. I'd like to think I do though. The nice thing about dreams is that you can do stuff that you can't do in real life. :whatwhat:

Erik didn't know what to think one of the first nights I stayed with him. I was laughing in my sleep. This was a very common thing for me back then. I don't think I do it now since he hasn't said anything.

What is weird for me is that I can have a dream, wake up remember but not actually remembering it (as stated previously), but then going to tan or take a name later in the day and can feel myself drifting back to that same dream, picking up where it had left off in the morning. Again I wake not knowing what the dream was about.

the last girl i was seeing actually told me i was speaking in tongues in my sleep. like giberish or something. i didnt believe her at first, i thought she was fucking with me, especially since that night we watched some documentary movie about alien abduction that had just come out. she swore to god and on her family that she wasnt messing with me.

she started to tell me some other crap but decided not to, i'm fairly sure i have a strange sleep disorder.

in order to have a wet dream, you would need to stop jerkin it for a few weeks. They result in sperm overload, ur sperms dont last forever.

Um... sure...
