Should I tell my wife about the dream where I slept with another woman?

Tagged as: Marriage problems, Sex<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (16 October 2014) 6 Answers - (Newest, 19 October 2014)
A male United States age 51-59, anonymous writes:

I had a very explicit and elaborate dream in which I had sex with a woman who was not my wife. I would never dare tell my wife such things except that this particular dream wasn't sexual in nature. The sex part was just a small (but important) part of the plot. She is a film maker and I felt that the plot could make a great script. I sort of screwed up the approach by saying: "I had a dream that would make for a good script." I did not tell her the sex part yet but to make any sense it has to be revealed. I am tempted to just omit that part but then the plot will be weak as one of the characters is a prostitute and I dreamed the part of the protagonist. Is this the sort of thing I should not reveal despite the potential it has as a vehicle for her to develop?

Only you know if telling your wife about that aspect of the dream would upset her.

My take is keep it to yourself.

I don't know, depends on your relationship and her sense of security. Many people have dreams like that, personally my husband and I can share them without issue but I also know women who would flip out over it.

You know her better than we do,how do you think she'd react?

Just say that your part in the dream was someone else. And you walked in on them by accident or something
