"How would you react?"

Right you and your partner are in bed, both fast asleep. The next thing you are woken up by your partner saying the name of the opposite sex, they dont just say it the one time either. Oh and its not the first time you have heard your partner mention this name in their sleep.

How do you react?

Ignore it, it was just a dream...

Question your partner about it...

Other...

Just wondering how people would react!

If it was me, I'd ask them straight out because otherwise I just wouldn't be able to get it out of my head.

ah and that song after re listening to it


she does have same problem - but worse so dont listen to it as it wil make you feel rather insecure

and you dont need to

its a toughie but toni braxton explains it quite well in her song


here

Toni braxton - talking in his sleep :S

She had the same misfortune.

In the end of the day you do not know anything about this 'character' you do not know whether it is a re occuring dream, if he even remembers it or whether this woman is even real or not.

The best thing is if you are in a secure and trusting relationship dont be snide about it or work behind his back to solve this - ask him about it. Just explain it is quite un settling you are confused and just have an adult conversation with him.

Worrying doesnt do anything - you have to do something, but over reacting could swing back at you. Just ask hn

First one doesn't work so well. [URL]http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30100-13123512,00.html[/URL]

And there was yet another one just over a week ago as well. A guy killed his wife (sorry, the guy may be a suspect) and his father found the body in the fridge when he was getting milk for a cup of tea.

Back on topic... if I knew who the person was mentioning I'd ask them what the whole story was, as if I knew part of it. If I didn't know the person I'd just ask them about it.

I would wake them up, then say "OMGWTF!?!?".

Heh, nothing wrong with a bit of attempted murder.

I'd cut their c*ck off. Although why my partner would have a c*ck is beyond me.

Take it onto Trisha

I would murder them and then conceal their body in the fridge.

Either that or ask them about it and then try to gauge their reaction.

Depends really on what type of person you are. If it was me I would ask " so, okay, who the hell is *whoever*" and watch their face for a reaction to the name.

Or even make it jokey and ask "is *whoever* better in real life or just when you dream about them".

There again, as I said, it depends on what type of person you are. I'd have to ask as I'd have to know the truth, whatever it was and go from there.

I have a friend in a similar situ to this and she is burying her head in the sand and playing a waiting game. It would drive me nuts.
