Thread: Some "truths" About Lding

Actually I just said that on page 2

The only thing I could think of why we have dreams that seem like forever when really its only seconds or minutes IRL is because we actually do have a fast forwarded dream but when we wake up we remember it being really slow. Either that or massive chunks of the dream are cut out and we just imagine that there was something there that actually happened.[/b]

But I think you explained it much clearer though. lol
This is also my main theory, but not really 100% sure about it, the reason you may only remember some parts is because your dream recall isn't perfect maybe?

I dunno. I still think expectation has something to do with it, at least for some dreams. Perhaps there's some desire for instant gratification? Like, we want to see what happens next quickly, so it does, but we also realize that it must have taken a long time, because it makes logical sense. So our brains deliver both: a quick proceeding to the next event, and we're given the sense that it took a long time.

By the way, sorry I missed your theory in your post. I shouldn't read things when it's eleven o'clock at night.
