I usually have very vivid dreams that definitely influence my mood in the mornings, so I'll casually mention them to DH. Like, "I had the worst dream last night and now I'm sad." Of course I don't do this every morning or even every week, but I just realized this morning that DH has NEVER done this. I joked with him about it and asked if he even had dreams. It struck me as odd and I wonder if he's weird or maybe I am? lol.

It's so funny to read this today bc just this morning, I texted my bf telling him I had had a bad dream about him. His response was, "I'm on my way to work. Why don't you give me a call to tell me about your dream." And I thought, wow! No one ever wants to hear about dreams. He's a keeper!
Sometimes we talk about dreams! Or I might tell a friend or coworker if we're having a random chat. I don't go out of my way to talk about my dreams, but yes they do come up sometimes!
My H has the weirdest dreams. His brain cracks me up. I have realistic vivid dreams sometimes, but his will sometimes be vivid but also sound like a fantasy/sci-fi movie.

My dreams are often bad, and vivid. I'll share them with D, but don't tell random people about them or anything. Sometimes my best friend, depending on what it is, if it's something I'm upset about that they'll understand.
I rarely remember my dreams. When I do, they are usually bad so I try to forget them as quickly as possible. I think H remembers his more often and he tells me about them sometimes, but I don't really care so I have little patience for listening to them in too much detail. (I know, I'm a mean wife).
One of my pet peeves is people who make me listen to their dreams.
Someone on facebook once tagged me and a bunch of other people we went to school with (elementary through high school) and it was just a story about a dream he had with all of us in it. I feel like I was, perhaps irrationally, very very annoyed. Why in the world would you think I care?!
DH never talks about his dreams. I usually have crazy ones and I make him listen (or pretend to anyway) quite a bit. I tend to have crazy dreams about work and I make my coworkers listen to those.
Only when BF dream cheats or is an ass. Then he hears all about it.
I hate when I have those dreams and then wake up all pissed off at H. lol He will sometimes tell me, "I had a dream about you last night and you were NOT nice." lol
Only entertaining ones! And it is weird, I literally can’t picture things when I am awake but have vivid dreams. I have whole elaborate locations that repeat in my dreams too.
I can't even remember the last time I dreamed. It's rare that I remember one the next day. If I do, I usually tell someone. Depends on what the dream was about.
I rarely dream and basically never tell anyone about it. If I do it's like, "I must be stressed because I had a dream that super awesome boss yelled at me," or "damnit, I've been looking for that thing for two weeks and had a dream that I found it. I was so pissed when I woke up and realized it was still lost!"
My former foster kid used to ramble on and on about her dreams daily. I can't stand it! (Loved the kid, hated hearing about nonsensical dreams)
I'm a super vivid dreamer. I used to think my mom trained me to remember my dreams because she always remembers hers and would wake me each morning asking what I had dreamed and listening pretty intently. But I've tried that with DS, who is now 7, and he has yet to remember a single dream. He's never even had a nightmare. H doesn't remember his dreams either, or when he does they are always about a zombie apocalypse or something. One weird thing is that I almost never dream about someone I don't already know or haven't met in some way. We aren't always in the right chronological time or in the "right" setting but I don't dream about strangers or actors or whatever, which sometimes make the dreams seem more real.
Also, if you want to get woo about it, my mother often dreams she's talking with deceased friends and family. I have those dreams sometimes too and they are the best. Getting to hug my grandpa again is amazing and you will sit still and let me tell you about it, goddamn it.
I do but to the people who also tell me about theirs. I enjoy talking/hearing about them.
And since so many of you love hearing about them 😉😉, I tell this one often. The **only** reason I ever poas with dd2 was because I had the most vived, realistic dream that I was super pregnant. One of those that when I woke up, I was shocked that I didn’t have a gigantic 9 mo pregnant belly staring back at me. I had no reason to test. Dd1 was only 10 mo and a 7 yr IVF baby. DH was relocated to another town and we had only had sex once in that month because that was the only time I saw him, lol. I wasn’t even late. But I felt like poas just to poas so I did. Put it on the counter and forgot about it until hours later and came back and saw a super faint second line. Whoops. That kid turns 2 in 11 days!
We all dream, but some of us rarely remember our dreams. I remember a bit about one every year or so. If it's weird, which it normally is, I might mention it to my H.
