One of my hobbies that I haven't mentioned in this forum is keeping a dream diary. I've had it for few years and I rarely miss an entry. It contains EVERYTHING I can possibly remember in the dream including things that people might misinterpret, be puzzled about, and, based on another thread, cause a break up based on some irrational subconscious thought.
I make journal entries whenever waking up, even from a nap. I started doing them because one day I experienced a very eerie deja-vu feeling that gave me a panic attack.
In addition, I've made it a rule not to read my entries after writing them. I will only do it if I experience that feeling again.
Anyways I would not know how to answer the questions someone might ask if they decided to violate my privacy and read what's in the binder...
..but that's just me rambling.
Do you think a couple should discuss dreams? Should they omit things if they talk about them?
I don't know what other thread you are talking about, but I think it makes no sense to worry about a hypothetical future gf hypothetically violating your privacy and hypothetically getting upset over something in your dream journal and hypothetically not believing you when you explain.
In real life, you will probably date someone you can trust and who trusts you. If she misunderstands and thinks it's ok to read your binder, I am sure she will accept your explanation. And apologise.
That's cool! I've thought about writing about my dreams but I've just been too lazy to be bothered. However, dreams are not reality, so I don't see a point in discussing them. I might bring up a dream if it was something really absurd, but otherwise, they're not worthy of conversation.
Usually about once a year I have a dream so silly that I wake up laughing my head off.
And I've had several dreams about my teeth falling out, and because that was repetitive, I looked up what it might symbolize.
Beyond that, I sometimes look forward to going to bed and seeing what my subconscious conjures up in the night, but it's not worth mentioning.

Dreams may not be reality, but they are a manifestation of our subconscious. I'm not exactly comfortable with my dreams sometimes.

It seems like that you worry too much.
There may be an internal conflict within yourself that you need to resolved but have opted to repress for the longest period of time.
I am at a point where I no longer worry about the future. Who cares what happens in the future. My late boyfriend died when he was very young, my big bro is in the hospital fighting for his life. Life is unpredictable at best. Just relax, maybe the quality of your sleep would improve.

I don't read into them at all. My wife and I sometimes share with each other some of the humorous or weird dreams we've had. I seldom remember what I dream about anyway, so usually it's a non-issue.
