Stupidest Ways You've Missed Becoming Lucid

I was standing in a place like an old park I used to visit, which looked completely different, walking around with ghosts behind me and bare-foot over sharp rocks (which didn't hurt at all), when I suddenly walked through a doorway in to a library. I use doorways as a reminder to RC, so I tried to push my finger through my hand to see if I was dreaming. My hand was solid, and it didn't go through, so I thought it was real.

The ghosts confirmed my suspicion and told me it was real.

I woke up and punched myself hard.

in my dream last night i was being threatened with arrest by a police officer and i told her she could hurt me because it was my dream but i still failed to become lucid. FFFUUUUUUUUUUU-

Me and my mom were talking in one of my dreams. This was a TOTAL miss...

Me: I dont want to wake up, i dont want to get to the end of my dreams. He's going to end up dying i just know it
Mom: Its your dream you can do whatever you want
Me: I know but still...

Talk about missing x.o

Last night I felt my heart beat on the wrong side of my chest. I didn't go lucid, I just thought "hmm, that's weird. I thought my heart was on the other side." LOL

Based on some dreams I've had, your dream self can explain why your heartbeat is in your head.

Yeah, that's a frequent one for me too. I'll just assume I can't squeeze hard enough to stop the air or something.

Happened last night. I was in my bathroom and felt really weird and trippy. I suddenly asked out loud if it was a dream and checked my hands. They looked normal, so I carried on. Thing is, it WAS a dream - because I remember drinking lots of orange juice and killing aliens. I also had a beard.

For the second time now I dreamt I was LDing. I tried every method of flying I could think of; swimming, flapping, floating, growing wings etc. I proceeded to check out some pretty cool cityscape from above but I NEVER went lucid. Not even slightly. SO ANNOYING!

haha yea, some pretty weird things have happened in my dreams, but I don't think I've even gotten close to have an LD.

In an old dream I was jumping really high, and I thought that would be an easy dreamsign for future LDs. Then last night I had on these spring shoes and convinced myself that it was normal because there was springs on them and I wasn't just floating. *facepalm*

My stupidist way i have missed becoming lucid was when, one of my dream characters said "Well summon something for me" I said "I cant " he said " Yes you can" And i wondered what he meant, right at the ending of the dream i was like,.. Oh.. i could.. and my dream ended

Mine would be from a dream that had a giant who flung me into the ocean, and I could breathe underwater.

a dc walked up to me and said this is a dream lol

a year 11 was beating the shit out of me and it did not hurt

To quote my dream journal for last nights dreams; "I was talking to someone about making things more clear or real. I remember looking really closely at my hands and they were super sharp and crisp looking."

Actually having a conversation about the dream world followed by a reality check that obviously didn't induce lucidity. :(

Shit!! The absolute WORST miss EVER!!!!

Last night, I woke up from a lucid, and ended up in FA. Then I was seriously doubting reality. I looked at my hands, there were five fingers. I was about to go back to sleep, but the I poked my finger into my palm. It did not go through it. Even more proof that it was real life. I looked at some text, and then back again, there was no change. Then I checked out a mirror, and it was PERFECTLY normal. Lastly, I blocked my nose, but I could NOT breathe!!!

I mean, what THE hell??? How come ALL of those RCs failed so miserably??? I could have had a great lucid, but no, those RCs HAD to go and **** themselves up. :/

well, sometimes your dream is TOO real... :/

but i think you wouldn't control your dream properly if you discovered that it was, in fact, a dream, because of the "ultra realism" xD.

it would be a cool experience though xD

max, it's happened to me once. :p

No, I think not. This was a conversation that I had in my bed with my mother yelling at me after an FA just started:

Mom: Sam, you are dreaming!
Me: No, I'm not!
Mom: Yes, you are!
Me: No, shut up!

I then did a lazy reality check, and just fell back to sleep.:facepalm:

^
but that was your own laziness, right? I was completely determined to have an LD and ALL of those freakin RCs didn't work. Two words : EPIC FAIL. :/

Alright, I was actually lucid when this happened, but I thought I would share it since something similar was mentioned higher up the page.
I'd set myself a lucid task to check my hands and my reflection the next time I became lucid. When I did become lucid (by turning on a light switch and realising that there wasn't one in that spot in real life, by the way), I checked my hand. Five fingers, no weird colours or shapes. Pretty normal there. Next I checked my reflection in my bedroom mirror, and it didn't look much different except that my hair was a little longer. I then proceeded to switch on the computer, remove my shirt and then punch a wall. My hand felt like it had hit nothing. Then I woke up.
Strange is it not?

Yeah, I guess you're right. We BOTH fail.
