      People. Not necessarily because of sexual attraction, but because I want to meet someone who is most likely disguised as some other dream character.

      PS: might want to add and "Other" option

      Well.. it should be food to be honest, due to being a raw vegan. But my nymphomaniac tendencies tend to override the food

      Usually an uncontrollable sexual urge, not even joking but I never really get to the point where I can start doing it.
      Most of the time though I'm in control of my actions and desires.

      Hi,

      For me it seems to be sudden destabilization of dream
      There's no any signs that dream is ending except Dream Characters suddenly getting dull or just standing in frozen position
      And then waking up.

      I guess i'il need to experiment more with my stabilization techniques

      If only there was a better sign that told us the dream is going to end. I find it hard to keep the dream going for a long amount of time too. Even if I stabilize it the amount of extra time is few. But I guess if we knew how to stabilize every time and the dream kept going on and on we'd be stuck in the dream for a long time without knowing it. XD

      Yeah, XD
      That'd be pretty hilarious yet atleast better than waking up shortly after start of our journey in lucid dream
      It might be just that i'm either forgetting to stabilize or i just stabilize as dream is about to collapse (Which would be useless at this point?)
      I guess i'il just try out atkins513's guide:

      Y'all know what I'm going to say, I'm sure.....

      For those who don't know me, just about every single LD I have goes like this:
      + Hey, I'm lucid, cool!
      + (Look around a bit, maybe remember a goal)
      + About time for a girl!
      + (Summon or walk up to one), engage
      + wake up a second later
      + think "ah, man!"

      I almost never get end-of-dream signals, because my girl-based dream-endings are (I suspect) adrenaline-based and it's a quick rush and suddenly I'm out, no chance to respond.

      My very first LD had a slow fade to gray that I recovered from with a quick spin. I've never experienced that since, dream exit is almost instantaneous.

      What I have noticed though is that during that just prior to sudden dream exit my mind/attention is usually withdrawn into "feeling" my experience, as opposed to continuing to notice (visually) and stay engaged with the dream scene around me. "Getting into my head" (like trying to remember goals, or preparing to do a summon) also has lost a few dreams.

      I swear, ONE of these LDs soon, I will eventually ignore ALL females and just explore and interact (talk) as long as I can just to see how long I can keep it going.

      Ha, it's quiet difficult to describe as IRL I do not have such a strong sexual desire, it truly is uncontrollable and when it starts there's not much I can do. xD

      With the time it will get better, (Atleast it did for me).
      In my first lucid dreams i couldn't remember what was my lucid task that i had on mind earlier nor even could make it up on run while being in dream.
      And had similiar problem with sexual desires taking over.

      If i couldn't remember my ld task then they'd just take me over
      Or they would do so randomly without any reason even if i had ld task on my mind

      As the lots of lucid dreams passed this stuff just worn off
      Hopefully it will be same for you

      Our memory n' consciousness might maybe need to get used to lucid dreaming state

      Lol I'm like that, but better

      For me it goes like this:
      +"Oh, I'm dreaming!"
      +"Calm down, relax "
      +"remember my goal to teleport to my favorite show
      +Search for a door
      +See the door, but see a bed between me and the door, always has a cute girl laying on it
      +"I'm not in a rush"
      +Do some quick buzzinezz, like kissing, or other oral action (it's always oral. What can I say, I'm a taster! :})
      +"Enough of that, now let's get to the real deal"
      + Try to teleport
      + Fail miserably and wake up!

      I can have sex but I can't attempt teleportation without losing it??!!!
      I swearzz it, like really swearzz it next time I'm romamticaling-it-up, I'll have HER open the portal!!

      For me it used to be the moon. I had a goal to get there and then I couldn't do it. Then I finally decided to give it up, but for months after that I still tried to get to the moon every LD. I made it though, and it was awesome. I don't really have any big distractions now, I can stay away from dream girls most of the time. Food is normally just something I do on my way to a goal, I fight people a lot purposefully though, and I often use electronics as a medium for dream control.

      Its great that you were determined enough that you accomplished your goal. In what way do you use the electronics for dream control? : 3

      For distractions I have a problem with several things, in order.
      A dream forest.
      Books.
      New foods/cooking.

      If I see a forest, will have to get there at least for a second before I continue to do whatever the hell I am doing at the time.
      If I find a book in a dream, will have to read at least the first 3 pages to know the content... sometimes that ends up in me reading several dream books over the span of several dreams <.<
      OR if I see a new kind of food will have to try cooking it.

      For weakness it is different though; I used to have a very high weakness to dream music, hearing it would make me go berserk. Now it is mostly a weakness to talkative DCs, they annoy me but feel like it would be rude of me to kill them before they finish talking.

      Every type of dream control you can think of. Easy teleporting, easy summoning, controlling DCs, and ordering food! if I get stuck I just get on my phone and use some "apps" on there.

      It looks like "Others" could have been a better option than the "Bad Guys" in the poll so far .

      I thought the poll could be edited when I posted it cause I never used the poll option. Sorry. I was still planning it out in my mind at the time. >- -<

      Soooooooo...... ÒvÓ NO!!!

      *Pssssst..... try remembering to stay calm and lucid when imagining you're in a LD during your RC or R-I practice.... That's what I did ... *
      I fill my heart with fire, with passion, passion for what makes me nostalgic. A unique perspective fuels my fire, makes me discover new passions, more nostalgia. I love it.

      In non lucids and semi-lucids it is bad guys, definitely. In lucid dreams, it is people in general, most of the time females.
