People Divulge The Weirdest Thing Their Partner Has Ever Said In Their Sleep

As much as a person might overthink how their partner had a dream about someone else, people generally have very little control over what they dream about.

They have even less control over what they might say if they talk in their sleep, much to their loved ones' surprise and amusement.

Curious, Redditor syler345 asked:

"People who have partners that sleep talk, what all have you heard?"

But Is the Recipe Good?!

"I can tell when my wife is sleeping well when she rolls over and starts talking about casserole recipes. It's always casserole recipes. She doesn't cook."

Trouble Sleeping

"My wife was a high school teacher and she would talk to me as if I was a student. It was confusing because she appeared awake, so it would take me a moment to realize she was dreaming."

Random Talk Is the Best

"We’ve been together six years now. One of the first times I slept at her house, she woke me up saying, 'There’s a wombat in the room, look!'"

"To this day, she does it quite a bit. I have a whole Notes page on my phone with stuff she’s said written down but that one sticks out."

"Some of you asked for other examples I've saved. Here are a few of my favorites:"

"'But what are we doing with our butts?'"

An Important Part of the Relationship

"Oh boy, my time to shine! My husband sleep talks a lot."

"In fact, our first date, he made this disgusted face and said, 'F**king jello' (yes I put out on the first date. He was supposed to be a one-night stand but he never left)."

"Some memorable ones are: 'They are gonna beat the Chicago bears. They've got machine guns but the bears have chainsaw hands.'"

"'Discount Spooderman.'"

"'This is a worm!' while aggressively shaking my dog's limp paw (who was looking at me, clearly OVER it)."

"And most recently, 'We are hiding behind a car and Bigfoot keeps throwing rocks at us. He ran away. Bigfoot is a little coward a** b***h,' followed by about 15 minutes of why... Bigfoot was a coward a** b***h."

"He often likes to talk about gardening in his sleep too but it never makes sense. 'We gotta go to the potato man! The quality is out of this dirt.'"

A Valid Concern

"I'm the sleep talker, and one that always cracks me and my wife up is this:

"We have two cats, and I was having a dream that one of them was pregnant, and apparently in the dream, I was very stressed about it."

"My wife said I shot up so I was sitting in bed and yelled, 'OH MY GOD!' out of nowhere."

"My wife, being the light sleeper that she is, woke up scared and asking, 'What's wrong?! What's wrong?!'"

" To which I replied, 'There's gonna be a looooooot of cats in this house.'"

" I then laid back down and went to sleep, leaving my wife utterly baffled."
