I've never had anything similar happen to me, ever. It'd totally freak out if it did though, and as an atheist it'd kind of force me to rethink my life a little bit. haha

As for sharing a dream with an internet buddy, I mean, I don't really know the rules of the 'shared dream world' or whatever, but I guess? WHy wouldn't you? Unless you need to have some sort of attachment with the person you're sharing the dreams?

That's a good question.
