Hello everyone, |
|
My fiance doesn't read my journol, but has been known to thumb through it once in awhile. Anyway, they are only dreams, and although I might be embarrased if I had a dream that was uncomfortable for me to think of, he knows they are just dreams. If I'm not lucid, it isn't really something I can control. |

Hmmm although I have even blocked all views of my dreamjournal on this website, and even after that, leave out certain things. |

Cheis. Dailo.
It's tough to bring someone back that never really lived.
What significant other? |
|
I wouldnt let mine just for the fact that when you write down your dreams you write them so they appeal to you and you can remeber them. when a spouse is involved you might "censor" like you mentioned or change it some. |
|
My hubbie has read mine but if you have a jealous other I don't recommend it. They will try to pick your dreams apart for their benefit. |
|
well, i don't have a lover, but i would share my DJ if i did. and i would love to read their own. |

Trust, honesty, and openess are all ideals of a funtioning relationship. Although we strive for these goals in each of our relationships, it isn't something ( I think ) that most couples are capable of all of the time. At least, on a level, that they would be totally comfortable with sharing every aspect of their subconcious. For a number of reasons, but I think mostly out of not wanting to confuse the spouse. Our own insecurities play a serious role in how we function with one another on a day to day basis. Volunteering information that may prey on our significant others insecurities isn't always healthy in a relationship. I think that saying that you would "always" share them, and "...wouldn't want to be with someone like that anyway." Is too strong a statement, even for someone who is comfortable in his/her ability to be brutally honest. |

My hubbie and I have are own computers and the unspoken rule is that we don't mess with each others desks or computers. |
|
that's a real toughy |
|
I don't have a significant other at the moment, but if I did I might be kind of afraid to let them read it. I don't like to censor myself and I'd be worried if they thought I was wierd... even though I probably am. Heh. |
|
These are the tears that I dream about...
My sig other has been through my dream journal here. But I usually share my dreams with him before they are posted here anyway, |
|
Well, I don't have a significant other. |

It seems the more i write in my journal the more dreams i recall the next morning . |
|
Our dreams are firsthand creations, rather than residues of waking life. We have the capacity for infinite creativity.
Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for your feedback. I think that a very small amount of discretion will go a long way in making my dream journal something that I can share with my wife. |

'all of the moments that already passed/
try to go back and make them last.'
My husband couldn't read it if he wanted too! Because my handwriting is so messy. But I do share my dreams with him, even the sexual ones. They are just dreams, and even while lucid you do things in dreams that you wouldn't do in real life even if you could. It would make me uncomfortable to know that he read my DJ in the same way that it makes me uncomfortable if someone is reading over my shoulder. I don't really know why. If I want to share, I'll share vocally. A DJ is the same as any other journal - private. It's not that I wouldn't want him to know what is in there, but it's just nice to be able to put your thoughts on paper without worrying how another will interpret it. We share everything, even if we think it may make the other person uncomfortable or upset. I wouldn't be married if that wasn't the case. |
