[quote=Anonymous]OP,

I have a very loving, patient, and kind husband. I've had a few dreams, rare but extremely disturbing, where I have gotten so angry at him that, within the dream, I HATE him. I have dreamt about him doing just terrible, unforgiveable things. I have also dreamt that I was insanely / hatefully angry at him for what, when I woke up, seemed like a small reason (while awake, anyway). It rarely corresponds to anything big between us. Occasionally I've told him, "I just had the worst dream, where you did X...and I was so angry!" He occasionally has dreams where I do something crazy (left him for an imaginary ex boyfriend, etc) but they never correspond to anything major.

I think dreams are more complicated than we think. Sometimes we think we're working things out, subconsciously, and maybe we are. I think other times, its just synapses firing erratically, exercising the brain's response functions. Who knows? Hormones certainly impact dreams a ton, and so do certain medications. So stress (not necessarily marriage related) and other things can also have an impact.

FWIW, I tend to have really disturbing dreams about other subject matter, as well. Thankfully, not often, but it does happen.

Good luck!  [/quote]
