Last night, I dreamed that an attractive boy and I agreed to go back home together and do naughty things to each other. I was so excited, I accidentally got in the left-turn lane when I meant to be in the right-turn lane. I changed lanes too late, directly in front of a cop car, and the dream ended with me trying to talk my way out of a ticket.

I still can’t get laid even in my dreams.

Ha! My classic is, "why yes, attractive person, you sure are attractive... BUT I NEED A BATHROOM RIGHT NOW BYE" and then I spend the rest of the dream searching for one.

When I wake up, I don't even need one! What gives, dream brain?

LB_Lee, for me the "I need to pee" sensation and the sensation I get "down there" when I'm sexually aroused are similar, if they feel similar to you too maybe your brain gets them confused?

Huh! You know, I never thought of that, but that makes a lot of sense and I bet you're right!

This happens to me too, my erotic dreams tend to end with me waking up before anything really fun happens. At least one time I really resented waking up before I could have any fun and was angry about that.

Lol, it happened to me again last night! I had a dream in which somebody paid for a session with a cute sex worker for me as a gift, and then I woke up just as I was about to start having fun with the sex worker and was getting turned on. I was a little irritated that my brain didn't let me sleep another ten minutes.

My initial impulse was to theorize about why this happens in psychoanalytic terms: maybe I have some internalized sex-shame and won't let myself have erotic experiences in dreams, or maybe I don't think I can construct a believable erotic dream because I'm a virgin so I wake myself up. But, thinking about this, I wonder if the real explanation is more primal and simpler. Sexual arousal is, well, arousal; your heart beats faster, you breathe faster, you become more aware of sensory stimuli, you become excited, I think adrenalin is probably involved; it makes sense that arousal would trend toward wakefulness!
