Ok I have a theory and I'd like to hear your opinion. I was doing research about telepathy and I came across an experiment they did. There was two people let's call them Barbie and Ken. Barbie was asleep in a bed and Ken was thinking about a certain thing very strongly and trying to project it to Barbie. Barbie woke up and recorded her dream. Barbie had dreamed the thing Ken was thinking of.

Now I've had a little background with shared dreaming. Me and my friend Amanda are really close. She and I both possess the ability to hear people's thoughts from time to time especially those of my other friend Samm. This is because Samm thinks very loudly and we're very close to her. On several occasions me and Amanda have had shared dreams by complete accident. I can always tell when it's really her because her character feels more real. On two other occasions all three of us, Samm, Amanda, and me all had the same dream. Twice me and Samm have had very similar dreams but slightly different and twice I've had a very similar dream with my bf.

So this is my theory. Shared dreaming is telepathy. Another thing I read was that ESP works the best between 12:00-4:00. I think that when we have a shared dreaming we are passing information back and forth very quickly like a tv recieves messages from a satellite. We are literally reading eachother's minds in our sleep. As for the similar dreams those are when we are reading eachother's mind but the connection keeps breaking. When that happens our own minds take over and fill in the blanks. So what do you guys think?
