Thread: Mental connection through dreams

Hello, I just joined this forum and wanted to start off by sharing my strange experiences that have brought me here. (I also have been a lucid dreamer for some time, but that's not what exactly brought me here).

Here is the experience that opened my mind to the possibilities:
During the summers I work on a small commercial salmon boat in Alaska. The quarters are extremely tight and I spend huge amounts of time in a very small space with the same people. About midway through last summer, the other deckhand, named Cole, and I started having accidental shared dreams: it started with him dreaming of getting sucked into a black hole. He was struggling and fighting it, but finally decided to give in and accept it. Right when he made that decision in his dreaming mind, I woke from a deep sleep shouting at the top of my lungs "Cole, no! Don't do it!" It shocked us both, and similar events happened from time to time.

I have recently met a woman and we quickly became very close. After a couple weeks together, she left the state for the holidays. Once she was gone, strange things began happening in my sleep. I would wake up and reach for my phone several seconds before it rang with a call from her. I would wake up with the sudden realization that she had sent me an email saying specific things, and when I checked in the morning, sure enough it was there. Strangest of all I one time woke in the middle of the night feeling like my body was shaking with this energy (it actually wasn't shaking, but felt like it was) and I just knew she was having an orgasm (hopefully self-induced haha).

This all sounds a bit out there to me, so I was wondering if any of you have had similar experiences with a lover or close friend...??
