Conversation and Dream With My Wife While In Deep Sleep

by Jose
(California)

While me and my wife are sleeping we talk to each other and have the same dream. While we are talking I can see things before they happen.


One night we were sleep talking, our conversation and dream took place at a store. We were putting all the groceries in bags. We were just saying to each other, honey please pass this, and that, giggles and smiles. Then all of a sudden in less then half a sec I see me and my wife in my room and the whole house starts to shake. I see my wife wake up scared and has a heart attack and is about to die.

My wife has heart problems and is scared of earthquakes. So I woke up, sat down. I put my hand over the heart of my wife, she opens her eyes and looks at me. I begin to tell her that everything is going to be ok, then the earth quake hits and I repeat it. Everything is going to be ok. When it was over all we did was talk about the dream, the conversation and how i knew there was going to be an earth quake. I tell her that I just knew. We had more of these dreams, I just wish I knew how to have more.

Conversations while sleeping NEW
by: Kristen

We have been told by people that we have lived with that my boyfriend and I have full on conversations while sleeping. I know that I talk in my sleep almost every night and many times yell profanities. Sometimes I am aware that I am doing it but am experiencing a sleep paralysis so I cannot stop myself. As a child OK would sleep walk alot and I experience the sleep talking and paralysis more as I've gotten older. I think it is quite odd that Chris and I are able to hold conversations with each other though this I do not remember doing yet...
