Have you ever fell in love in a dream? - SDF Chatter

A recent greentext post about an imaginary wife made me think of this. Have you ever had a dream, where you fell in love with a dream character? I’ve had at least a couple over the years that I can vaguely remember. The dreams were so vivid, and the feeling of love for this imaginary person was so strong, that I woke up feeling rather heartbroken and a sense of longing. Anyone else?

I met, fell in love, got married, bought a house, started a family and grew old together with a woman i met in my dreams. In one night, i lived a lifetime. It was so super realistic that it took me weeks to stop thinking about it constantly throughout the day, and even to this day I still think about it occasionally going on 15 years later.

You saw that lamp, didn’t you?

I remember that post. Always made me wonder if that really happened or if it was just good story telling.

I’m so curious now, could someone enlighten me?

It’s a reference to an old Reddit post where somebody had the same situation I did where they met someone yand fell in love and had long and happy life until they started noticing a lamp in their living room that sidn’t look right. Drove them crazy in this dream and eventually forced them to wake up. I’m on mobile and can’t find original post ATM but that’s the jist.

Thank you! That was enough for me to find it I think.

I can definitely relate to this just not as deep of a semi-lucid dream
