sleeping next to somone

[joshbotch]

my wife wakes me up all night long, although i dont totally wake up- asking me to scoot over or to cuddle with her or something like that... will that screw up LD's? because i dont fully wake up each time i am guessing that it might not. anyone have this problem or solutions?

That is usually when I do MILD. I'll do a RC to make sure that it was not a false awakening (well at least try to remember to do an RC). I had my first intentional LD after said type awakening. I think if you keep the feeling of dreaming and the intention to LD the whole night like that, you will eventually have an LD.

Sounds like a bunch of oppertunities to WILD =]

I don't have that problem, but I would be pretty annoyed if I got woke up from a Lucid. I actually did get woken up just after getting Lucid in a nap Monday. Somebody started pounding on my door. Pissed me off. I think this could work to your advantage as well though. Maybe if she keeps you close to the waking state you will be likely to get Lucid from it. Let us know how it goes.

i'll try tonight and let you know

well, she kept disturbing me while i tried to WILD which sucked but she made up for it, she woke me up during a dream, i tried to go back into it and BAM! lucid! later that night the same thing happened and i went lucid again, although not as strong as trhe first one but i could still fly. p.s. caradon- i've been reading your lucid journal and i tried free falling last night. wow! thank you!

Nice! I'm glad that worked out to give you a lucid. I have started moving into the guest room for my WBTB / WILDs. My girlfriend hates it (like I'm choosing dreaming over her or something stupid) but it makes my WILDs much easier. If she rolls over during my WILD, or breathes too heavy, it normally ruins it for me.

Cool, I'm so glad you had such great success! And thanks for reading my Lucids. Isn't free falling a blast!

i've still been trying to WILD with no sucess... she moves around A LOT and talks in her sleep A LOT... it pulled me from SP last night... i was just starting to feel really detached from my body...grrrrrr. soon she stops working nights and that means that she tends to fall asleep on the couch after dinner, if i dont move her i can have the bed to myself to WILD. can't wait!
