I'm usually a sound sleeper. Sometimes, though, my friends will sleep over and they'll be like..."wow. Shaye. You were just talking in your sleep," and I'll be like, "LIES!" or something and then they all laugh and tell me the weird things I did. That happened twice. Once, when I was up north, I cried in my sleep. Emily and Carmen were like "why were you crying?" and I was like "LIES!" or something. Once or twice I have laughed in my sleep (while people were around). I almost always smile in my sleep. My dad would laugh, sleepwalk, talk, whatever in his sleep. That's partially why my mother loved him so much. He was a character, even when he wasn't awake. Smile

Anybody do things in their sleep that they don't remember?

several times! Very Happy

ive talked in my sleep a hell of a lot. The randomest things too. there was one about unicorns, one about mushrooms. etc...

One of my mates in canberra had the worst one though. She used to talk in her sleep, and one night when we were at camp, my friends and i woke up to her speaking some language... It turned out to be Fluent french. the thing about this was that she had never learnt a whit of french in her life... spooky.

Yeah, i have quite often been told that i talk in my sleep, sometimes easy to understand, and sometimes just mumbling...

My mum has answered the phone and called people while she was asleep when i was younger...

Apparently sometimes she told people that she had a little pony sitting in her hand, and that she was a witch... there were lots of different funny stories that she was told when the people called her back the next day...

My ex, at different times has talked in his sleep...

Most recently i was trying to get him to move over to his side of the bed.. it went something like this:

ME: Hey, can you move over so i can go to sleep please?
MICHAEL: I don't care what they want, tell them to get stuffed!
ME: What?! Can you move over?
MICHAEL: Why do you care what they say? Tell them to mind their own business!
ME: Can you move over please??? (at this point he shuffled over about an inch...)
Can you move over some more so i can get in the bed please?
MICHAEL: I said i don't care what they want! Tell them to F*** off!!!
ME: Ok, but can you move over please?
MICHAEL: WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?!
ME: I WANT YOU TO MOVE OVER TO YOUR SIDE OF THE BED SO I CAN GO TO SLEEP!!!
MICHAEL: Oh, ok... (and he finally moved over...)

And in the past he said things such as "And you bumped her hip and she said...(mumble mumble mumble)" OR "Decapitation"...

I really don't think i want to know what he's dreaming about... but at the same time i so totally do!

I would get kinda worried if my boyfriend talked about decapitation in his sleep. Shocked
