Cuddles in my Dreams

Last night I had some dream cuddles.

A child cuddled me. I’m childless so I think it was my sister’s child. In the dream I was sleeping on a couch so I must’ve been at my sister’s house. The kid climbed on me without a word and nestled alongside my chest. It was nice. Soon after he got up and went to the kitchen. No explanation.

Then, in the next dream my ex-wife was approaching me with a lot of contact. The premise of the dream was that she was doing a lot of ecstasy. So she was very touchy feely. I don’t want her in my dreams but the touch and attention was good for my ego.

Are my dreams trying to supplement my need for contact? I recently got out of a 14-year cuddle-free relationship. Then I got a few cuddles but nothing for the last month. Possibly I’m just obsessing and it’s impacting dream world.

Anyone else having a similar experience?

    @Chocolatetreat, Gross dude. Don’t take it there.

    Yeah, take it down a notch, @Chocolatetreat. I've got some daughter that I cuddle all the time.

    I do know that I keep a body pillow around because of the lack of touch. My love language is physical touch so I start to feel very depressed when I've not had human contact after a short time. Just having something to hold onto makes it better. My imagination can fill in the rest. Our minds compensate for a lot. For instance, it's been shown that singles take hotter, longer showers to compensate for the lack of another human's warmth. I can only imagine how much harder it is going from having that contact frequently to not. Your brain is probably trying to compensate.

    Hey @Tallmann I've had similar dreams and from experience yes, you have dreams like this from just missing that touch and contact and I have the same love language. Incidentally, I've dreamed of cuddling with children too in a completely non-sexual way, like you. But the twist is it seems to be unborn children from my brother. Just a feeling I get from my dreams.

    @MandaPanda94 Yeah, I keep a body pillow on either side, but mannnnnnn, it ain't the same. Just takes the edge off a little.

    @mandapanda94 That’s cute that you have a body pillow. I’ll consider that. I could never have too many pillows. @SunnyD I totally get the unborn child thing. Dreams are weird. In fact, this is corny but in the dream it seemed like the kid that cuddled me was my inner child.? After waking I assumed it was supposed to be my sister’s kid but later I remembered the inner child thing. Yeah, dreams are bizarre.
