Typo Boy, were you too weirded out to ask any questions of the people who were around? Well, either way, dreams can be very strange things. And when we are short on sleep the ordinary progression from one stage of sleep to the next can be futzed. So yeah, I'm going to agree that talking to a doctor as soon as possible is a wise idea. I do hope it turns out to be as simple as wacky hypnagogic effects of sleep dep.

It did. And it sucked. But, honestly, I am really proud you were direct and just asked. No, it didn't work out the way you'd hoped but you aren't left wondering either. And either you can deal with a friendship with her or you can't - either are really valid. You were both brave and honest.

Cass said what I wish I had thought of. Sunil, you did good.

I've been pretty tired lately, so I suppose I could have fallen asleep for a minute with nobody noticing and dreamed it. But I'm usually pretty good at telling the difference between dream and reality, and my sleep deprivation would have to be pretty extreme for that to happen. And if it is not a dream but an actual false memory or hallucination, that is even more scary.

Real sleep dep is a scary, scary thing. Our bodies really do need sleep to function correctly and, even, in the right reality.

I am glad you are going to check with a doctor.

What Cass said to Typo and P-C.

Congrats P-C though for putting yourself out there. It takes bravery and you have that. It doesn't feel great, but in the end, it is a really good thing. You'll be able to slay dragons soon enough! :-)

Typo, yes get yourself checked out. You also might have a sleep disorder that a physician can help you get checked for.

And you are good looking, smart funny guy, so once you start directly letting women know you are interested, you will find one who is interested back.

This. I see lots of evidence of guys being clueless that women are interested. I know it isn't easy, but you have a much greater chance of hearing yes if you ask.

Typo, it sounds like time wonkiness to me! I have only experienced this in sleep. Check it out.

When I was in college, a male friend advised me that if I liked a guy, I should get a stick, write "I like you" on it, then hit him with it. I don't think he knew how close he came to a good clue-sticking, there.

LOL

that is really really funny.

Good on ya, P-C.

Typo, sounds like a good time to talk to the doctor. Are you unable to sleep or just really really busy?

WindSparrow, thanks for the laugh first thing.

Dog is refusing to go out and pee in rain. ::sigh:: I guess I have to get dressed and take him. Overslept and won't be at DMV when it opens like I wanted, but oh well.

Hil! Excellent.

P-C: Excellent.

You could have also written "clue" on the stick.

Or, you know, offered to pack your bags and move in with him.

Worked for me.

I finally made it to the DMV, after a detour caused by a flipped vehicle (yikes!). I thought there were, like, seventy people ahead of me. There's only seven!! That's so much better.
