I found love in a sleepy place.

Sometimes I will have a really good dream and when I wake up I feel pretty sad for about an hour or two. I will dream that I have a great life with a beautiful wife and children. When I wake up and they're not there with me I feel like I've lost so much. The feeling only lasts until the memories of the dream start to fade but is it normal that my dream effects me so strongly at all.

    If someone tries to touch your sleepy place tell an adult.

    I've had dreams like that. I would wake up feeling torn, wishing it were real. And then I would hope that when I fall back asleep I would return to that life in the dream I had... Sometimes, I've successfully returned to the dream but in most cases I wouldn't be able to.

    There was this one time my son in a dream was on his death bed and was about to die (because of cancer), and I intensely wanted and needed to be by his side and hold his hand and tell him that I love him, and that everything will be okay... but then I woke up. I was so angry at myself because my son in the dream needed me. I cried myself hoarse but then had to remind myself that it was just a dream. A bloody dream... I'm still grieving but not as much as the first few days after the dream had occurred. lawl.

    Glad I'm not alone on dreams affecting so strongly.

    I've had those kind of dreams before, when I wake up I get sooo sad because none of it was real. Just a dream. But then a few hours later I forget about it and it's all good.

    Yup normal. I even prefer nightmares because it's the only time I prefer reality after I wake up.

      As far as I can remember, I don't recall any marriage or kids in those dreams I have had about a girl. Sorry :P

    I think you missed the nostril and it's the way of the nostril that is getting you to sleep in a place not formed by the nostrils.

    I have had similar dreams about a girl before. I felt like she was my soul-mate and we were just made for each other you know? It does make me sad when I wake up, because I know what we had was so special and the dream felt so real. I want that so badly at times... It is getting rarer and rarer that I have those special dreams anymore though, or maybe I am just not remembering them (but I don't think so).

    Same here, I have had dreams about a dream woman or family that I was very sad to awaken from. As long as these dreams aren't something that you dwell on, and let ruin your day, then it's all good dude!

      That has to be where he got the title. Too perfect to not be!

    Dreams like that can be wonderful. A kind of wish fulfillment. It's so weird because the feelings we get are 100% real, just the situation is not. It's completely normal to wake up and feel cheated, bereaved even when that happens.
    Last night I once again dreamed of a guy I had my first big crush on a long time ago. It felt so real and intense. Maybe it's a way of dealing with unfinished business by consummating this passion in dreams. It got me a little stirred up all morning.

    Someone had to post it. You're normal, we've all been there.
