I Said Another Guy's Name

I talk in my sleep....alot.....almost everynight my I sort-of wake up to my bf looking at me weird and saying "what?"

Last night I did the same thing, it just happens that in my sleep I spoke the name of a guy that I'm sorta an aquaintence with. I just remember my bf raising his head and saying..."what?" and I just groaned and fell back asleep. I didn't even remember it til this morning.

Before I met my bf I had a wild crush on aquaintance guy, I still think he's cute, but I have my wonderful bf now and I'm happy. BF doesn't know any of this of course, he just has heard me mention aquaintance guy occasionally.

bf didn't mention it this morning, although I think he probably remembers it, he always does remember things I say in my sleep it seems. I don't even know if I said anything else, I just remember saying the name.

Should I bring it up with him? What should I do if he asks me about it? He's such a wonderful guy I felt awful when I remembered what I did.

Pianoguy suggests that you keep your mouth shut...during sleep and definitely during your waking hours...about the "acquaintance!" Disclosing the information (unless you're asked) serves no purpose.

If your b/f should eventually bring up the man's name (or the 'talking in your sleep' incident), it might be better to explain your infatuation with as little fanfare as possible. However, after you do...STRESS TO YOUR B/F...that the most important man in your life today, tomorrow and forever is HIM!
