I absolutely love flying dreams, not for the actual flying, but because I always use my skill to get out of bad/unwanted situations. I’ll be in a foot chase and I’ll just zing off into the sky. I’m also the only one who can fly, so I show off a lot.

    I have two types that I love but rarely get to see. First is when I dream entire movies with a beginning, middle, and end. Bonus points if the movie is insanely surreal and sci-fi. The dreams I’ve had like this I still remember even after such a long time. And the other is dreams that have music in them. They’re the most interesting songs but I can never remember how they go after I wake up so I’ll never be able to hear it again.

    The ones where I have a "boyfriend’. Like… I don’t even know if this character is my bf. Sometimes it’s a faceless character, sometimes it’s just one of friends… Whatever it is, we have sex, cuddle n stuff. It feels rlly nice!

    Exploring. Sprawling woods, giant mansions, stairways leading down from basements or subways. With or without chasing a mysterious figure or a mysterious figure chasing me.

    I dream very, very infrequently, partially because of hypophantasia, partially because I learned lucid dreaming interferes with my sleep (it really isn’t that healthy), and also I’ve sort of stunted my dreaming. To explain, during a time when my outlook on the dreaming process was different, it used to be I primarily dreamt about people I missed. Such dreams were my glory, but then I’d wake up and the realization it was a dream once again would hit me hard.

    One night I had such a dream, it became lucid, and I discovered that, despite being emotionally numb in real life which meant I have a hard time crying, in my dream I gravitated towards crying, and it felt unnaturally natural because I wouldn’t have expected it if I don’t gravitate towards crying in real life. It came to a point when I didn’t want to dream anymore, even if I never dreamt that often in the first place, so I pushed my ability to do so far, far away.

        Okay? Yes. Satisfactory? Meh. I know life circumstances have demonstrated they could be better than they are. I’ve lost a few people in life in ways that are particularly difficult to think back on. I go about myself normally but I’d be lying to say I could confirm the parts of my mind I may be neglecting have or will ever see itself as beyond all that.

    Dreams that feel like a creation

    • Moving through some amazing scenery (waterfalls and the sea always look great) and knowing this is all part of your imagination.
    • Trying food with really weird flavors that still taste great. I don’t like food that much in real life.
    • A specific type of dream where you experience the plot in 1st person but there is also a voice over that you kinda control, in the style of a book. It’s a bit weird but became much more frequent after I started reading more. Anybody else get this?

    Being in a romantic relationship. Actually, I don’t remember having a good dream about anything else.

    I really envy people that can remember their dreams. I just close my eyes to sleep and wake up like time didnt pass

      I really envy people who don’t remember their dreams. I wish I could teleport through the night instead of waking up scared and anxious.

    I love dreaming of traveling. I enjoy the fantastic adventures I have in my mind that inspire me to see more of the world!

    Dreams where I’m someone completely different. Doesn’t matter which gender or whatever, just that I’m living a different life. I sometimes have dreams where I have a very consistent identity, like I know I am that person.
    I don’t mean for this to sound depressing, my own life is fine. I just really like pretending to be different people :)

    My absolute favorite thing is exploring big buildings (hotels, schools, etc.), especially if there is a surreal element to how different areas are connected.

    At first i thought it was about day dreaming…most of people do not remember most of their dreams, and nobody can choose the themes…Is real this question?

    I hardly remember my dreams and when I do (which is usually if it has been interesting) I generally wake at some crucial point which is very annoying.
