Is it normal to feel guilty after a sexual dream?

So the kind of dream I'm talking about is something like being sexually active or something of that nature. Despite enjoying the dream in the moment, I always wake up incredibly ashamed of my lustful 'encounter.' I'm not sexually active IRL, I don't masturbate, and I have zero sexual contact of any kind. I don't even watch porn.
Is it normal to feel so incredibly guilty after one of these dreams?

    Dreams represent what we really need in our life, I talk in my sleep and my wife told me that I was saying "I told you that I was right about that" when I am not sleeping I just say to her "yes my love, you are right"

    I don't think you should feel guilty about it but it's not out of the norm to actually feel that way. It's fine really as if you're a genuinely caring person you carry that into your waking self even if your subconscious is having a blast so you could feel a bit guilty.

    Being sexually active or masterbating is not a crime! Understand this reality and reset your mind. Hard to believe you don't even fap, what is your gender?

        Well then it is somewhat common not to fap, however you still should not feel guilty at all. Ever tried masterbating? Word on the street says it feels pretty good.

    What is there to feel guilty about? It's natural and in your case subconscious. Are you sure that it's by your own choice that you are not sexually active IRL though? Because if it is, you shouldn't be worried
