A couple who shares everything now has one secret. She keeps dreaming about her ex boyfriend, very very intimate dreams. She has no feeling towards the ex also they haven't spoken in 13 months. She feels guilty like she's cheating and wants to tell her fiance. What do you think? Should tell him or keep it a secret?

how can she say she doesnt have ANY feelings when shes dreaming about him? there must be something there. I would go with get back in touch with him, see how hes doing try the friend thing, but I wouldnt come out right with telling him about the dreams. I had a similiar situation though were I was having dreams about my ex who was dating my best friend at the time, long story short I told her, and were back together but I doubt THAT had anything to do with us getting back together :P

my bad I totally mis-read the question I thought you meant tell the ex, as for telling your spouse, I advise agaisnt it. it could only create jealously unless hes a very trusting and understanding person it might be okay...

I'm so with this problem. I get married soon and i had a dream that wasn't intimate but it did involve my ex marrying me. very odd and disturbing for a day or so and then i realised that part of commiting to someone is legging go of the other options. i think part of me still loves the ex, but not in any way that threatens my relationship now. it's part of who i was and so part of who i am now. but in the dream i remeber feeling uncomfortable and that told me that this was a dream and the reality i chose today is more important. I told a friend to make sure i wasn't going crazy, but not my fiance. I didn't chose the dream and it doesn't worry me now, but if he asked, i'd tell. there is no reason for him to be jealous, i'm chosing him. but no need to cause possible upset either.

Answer to the question: .. NO. reason: .. should not be shared. ( I mean, these sort of intimate dreams should not be shared. particularly with the spouse. Further reasons: I don't have an EX. -------------------- But, it is common to have intimate dreams.. for both male and female, .. with people whom we are associated with. According to psychology, it is very natural to have wet-dreams with those relatives, friends, or with those whom we cannot even think of in real world, which are a social taboo also. So, having a wet dream with the ex, is not a trouble at all. As long it is kept a secret, away from the present day spouse.

No, I definitely wouldn't share my dreams with my husband because when it really comes down to it there is nothing that is really significant about having a dream about an ex. We did have a history but in my case it has been quite some time since I've heard or seen any of my exes. And just because I have a dream about one or two of them from time to time it isn't going to change the relationship that I have with my husband. In fact, I think that if I was to share my dreams about exes with him then it would serve no purpose other than to cause problems in our relationship.
