TIFU by telling the guy I’m talking to about my dream

r/

I’ve (F22) been talking to this guy (M27) for over a month now. He lives in a different state, like a hour away, and we haven’t met yet. We usually text for a bit everyday. We kinda just talk about our lives/or one of us will ask what the other thinks about a topic, normal stuff you know. We also will say when something funny or embarrassing happens. Well today he texted me continuing our last conversation, and replied, and told him about the dream I had last night where I had an ectopic pregnancy with like 8 kids and I didn’t know until I gave birth. And later the kids turned into cats and were out of control. I thought it was just funny and weird and now I think I think I fucked up because he hasn’t answered me, when normally he responds pretty quickly.

TL;DR: I told a guy about a weird dream I had and now he stopped talking to me.

    Maybe he’s just busy. Surely he gets that dreams are weird and they’re not real.

    Guys don’t know what that means but also how could you not know, pretty sure that would kill you.

    We all learn that lesson one way or another, and most ways suck.

    What happened to you is called “inside thoughts” and for the most part, we don’t need to say inside thoughts out loud. You just gotta marinate with those and not say anything unless it’s your therapist, because they can lose their license if they tell anyone.

    Best thing you can do is wait a week, and then send a short message to toe the water. If he replies, coo; if not, you have to accept he had a reason he thought was a good one and you can’t be the one to disabuse him of that idea.

    I wouldn’t worry too much,

    If someone made a joke like that, as a dude I wouldn’t immediately go “oh this girls crazy she’s already talmbout kids and stuff”

    If he likes you he’ll likely just find it cute and funny and he just hasn’t responded yet

    If this causes him to stop talking to you, then that’s a pretty early red flag and a good thing to find out early on.

    If he doesn’t engage with your (excellent) crazy dream story then he’s not for you. That’s a great filtering tactic you’ve invented 🙂

    I just hope he didn’t ghost you because something happened to him, and if he did ghost you because of a dream then you probably dodged a bullet I guess. Can you ask any of his friends or relatives if he’s ok?

    The expectation of a quick reply has liked many relationships. He’s an hour away. You have no idea what he is doing.

    His loss because that dream sounds hilarious.

    My wife’s PhD is Anthropology, but she’s a hard-core Jungian. You could text her your weirdest dreams and she’d be way into it. The Jungians are really into the meaning of dreams, they believe they’re things your subconscious wants to discuss with you.

    If I were in that dude’s shoes and an interesting woman was texting me her wackadoo dreams, I’d think it was the coolest/sweetest thing ever.

    Probably asking for guys advice on this topic… seems like a weird topic to me…

    That’s a funny dream and I wouldn’t get in your head about it. He could be busy, or worst case lost interest. But, if sharing something like that with him really scared him away, you’re probably better off with someone who appreciates the humor.

    Yah no I wouldn’t put up with a crazy dreamer like yourself red flag deal-breaker

    Probably just busy. No way any normal guy would be weirded out about this dream.

    He was so surprised reading what you told him and his phone slipped, fell into a water tank and was damaged.

    Has he asked you to invest in crypto yet? Like download an app from the App Store and start investing?

    Read up on the pig butchering scan. Be careful!

    He’s probably a dog person.

    He’s missing out. 8 fur babies to roll on the floor with.
