Last night, I had a dream about my boyfriend sexually assaulting me. Now today at work, when ever he tried to touch me, some part of me made me instantly flinch away and try to avoid him. I just can’t stand being around him. I told him that I had a dream in which he was violent to me, but he wants to know exactly what happened in the dream. I can;t tell him. He’ll be very hurt. He won’t let this go… I’m sure of it. What should I do? Should I tell him about the dream, or do I make up a story? My closest friends know about this, but they said not to tell him. What do I do????????

How does “?” know your boyfriend will never hurt you? For all we know, your BF can be a very overbearing guy who intimidates you a lot. Maybe your dream is your subconscious telling you that you just don’t trust this guy, or you don’t feel safe with him. Maybe there is something about him that is disrespectful and as a girl, you represented that through sex in your dream (women feel vulnerable about sex in that primal way).
Break up or go talk to someone educated in relationships (not your friends) to get advice. I advise the latter, initially.
sometimes, dreams have a way of revealing our insecurities. something about your boyfriend truly makes you feel uncomfortable and stimulated this dream. i have many female friends who have nightmares about sexual assault and murder. this is sad, but common also.
you basically have two options: either break up with him, because you are so fearful; or discuss the dream and try to sort out the origin of your concerns and why you had this dream.
Wow, this is pretty ridiculous. You had a stupid dream, and you are letting it affect your relationship–does that make sense to you?
You should not have told him. What was he supposed to do about it? He can’t control what you dream. He didn’t do anything. Why should he be hurt about it? It didn’t really happen.
Apologize for making a big deal out of a dream. Make up something, or tell him what happened in the dream. Since it’s not real, he shouldn’t really care. And next time, keep your dreams to yourself.
id only be afraid if your dreams come true sometimes
Tell him about your dream, he will understand and assure you he would never hurt you. It is just something your scared of happening, deffinitly talk to him! 🙂
If u have the dream agian dumb him casue it might just happen!
You’re retarded…..
Tell him or get over it. If anything I dreamt came true I would be ecstatic.
break up with him. this clearly isnt going to work.
