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?

My take is keep it to yourself.

Is there an upside to this? If not remain quiet.

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?
