LOL. Yeah. You just haven't had dream control. Every time you realized you were dreaming was an LD. You've had plenty. As for how long it takes to develop control, I don't know. What I do know is if you want to not wake up almost instantly (which is what's happened to me), you have to learn, and implement stability tricks. I'd say you're doing great if you're keeping a DJ, doing RCs, and are having low level LDs. You've made more progress in 2 weeks than I've made in more than two months, but that because I'm having trouble getting myselt to DJ and RC. I takes different amounts of time for everyone, but if you continue to have many short LDs and remember to practice stabilizing, you'll be an expert pretty quickly.
