Good Afternoon Everyone

I love this board! People here are so smart and friendly & its great to be able to share these experiences with people who understand

I'm trying to figure out the differences between types of dreams because I had one a few weeks ago that sorta freaked me out

I was at a friends house on a lazy Saturday and I fell asleep on the couch after my friend went off to the store

So in the dream (I think) I hear someone coming down the stairs and my mind apparently knows I'm dreaming & starts to freak out

My mind is thinking "Tee, theres no one here with you..why are the stairs creaking like someone is coming down the stairs..WAKE UP NOW!"

I tried to wake myself..to scream..to move but I can't..I'm like paralyzed!

And I had a vision (I think) of some guy..some white guy (as you can probably guess..I'm not white..lol) staring over me

My mind is still screaming for me to wake the hell up "Tee, wake up..he could strangle you..put a pillow over your head..anything! WAKE UP NOW!"

So this guy leans over me & says "What happened to you?" and pretty much goes back upstairs...somehow I wake up after that

My hearts pounding & I'm looking up at the staircase wondering what the hell just happened & if it was somehow real

I managed to find the nerve to go upstairs & I found myself making an announcement while climbing the stairs I was like "LOOK whoever you are..please don't bother me..I've had enough for one day" but of course I never found anything or anyone

I never did tell my friend what happened..I mean what do you say?
I did entertain thoughts of finding out if anyone had died in that house but again..how do you explain the reasoning behind that?

For the life of me..I didn't know what that meant either "What happened to you?"...it scared me..I was like Umm I don't know what happened..does that mean if I stay here any longer..something WILL happen to me? The way he said it was like maybe I was doing great at some point somewhere in my life & now that I'm not..he's all like "What happened to you?"

Thats not the first time I've ever had one of those paralyzing type dreams BUT it is the first time someones ever said anything to me IN them & its definitely the first time I've ever had one outside of my own home

This is all very odd..I've never seen that man before in my life, well technically I didnt really SEE his face but you know what I mean ..I can't understand why ME of all people for that message

I still go over to my friends house but I think now I might think twice about dozing off

Does anyone out there have any clues as to what this might have been?
