I would never do anything with my niece and now if i see her or talk to her i feel guilty as if i had done something with her. I think sigmond freud said that dreams are the sub-conscious way of ones desires. I dont want this to ever happen but i feel perverted. Reply to this Question Share |
Fancy yourself as an agony aunt? Add your answer to this question! A

Is there someone that has the same name as your niece that you would like to have sex with? OTOH, your subconscious mind could be using your niece so that you realize that your current sexual relationship is NOT NICE. In your dream you are having sex with your niece but your mind knows that such a thought in real life is abhorrent to you. Then again, perhaps you are estranged from your sibling and your mind is inserting their child so that you can get together again and have familial relations.

I think that it just happens. I've had dreams about some people that I was completely disgusted about. I think that a dream is just a dream. Besides Sigmund Freud (really it's all just theory), nobody really knows for certain what dreams are. Some believe that they are just a bunch of jumbled thoughts and your brain turns them into a story to make sense of it. I think that as long as when you're conscious and you're not feeling this way and even disgusted with it, you know that it's wrong and have no intention or want to do anything with you niece--then that's okay. We can't help what we dream about, as disturbing as they are at times.

I think that this is because we look to sex to be a liberating act and often times doing what is "wrong" is the most liberal thing of all. I don't think it means you are a pervert but that you are sexually repressed and are acting out in your dreams.
Try to replace the fantasy with your niece with a different image. Concentrate on that image or scenario and eventually the "other one" will be diminished.
