I'm curious to know who you are in your dreams? Do you dream of an idealized version of yourself (for example, if you're overweight, you dream you're thin), or do you dream of a realistic you?
 
In my dreams (the one's I remember!!) I am myself... no different physically, but sometimes on the mental level, I am more perceptive... I tend to see things from a different perspective...

Now that I have confused even myself, I shall return to my reading... :D
 
I guess I didn't explain my own answer and why I'm curious about it. When I dream (especially sexy dreams), I dream that I'm a "normal" weight, like around 130 or so. That's how much I weighed growing up, but then I gained a bunch of weight with both of my pregnancies. The only time I ever dream that I'm overweight is in a bad dream. I've always wondered how others viewed themselves in their own dreams.

I wonder if that means that my "normal" self should be in much better shape physically? Or if it's just wishful thinking?
 
My dream self is actually who I am. All imperfections in tact. I am generally quite happy with myself.

In dreams though, perhaps my dreams are centered around being loved as is, hence the reality based Miss T?

Hmmm thought provoking.
 
Definitely wish/dream I were thin and beautiful. I have always battled with my weight. And now that I am gonna meet WC I wish more I could be beautiful and thin for him. This is what I would luv to look like. In some of my fantasy stories to him, this is me in fantasy world. She has beautiful face, hair, perfect body.
 
I don't often remember my dreams but when i do, i think i'm mostly inside my body and not looking at it from the outside, hence, i don't see myself. Does that make sense? Most of the dreams i remember have a strongly emotional basis anyway. I'm not sure my physical self - dream or real - would have much importance within that milieu (unless, of course, the emotions were centered around body issues - a thing that hasn't happened, to my recollection).
 
Yuck... she is fake, fake and fake. The only real thing about her is... is....looking again and again. Ummm... okay. Maybe she is a wonderful person who saves stray rabbits and gives money to poor college students. But..
you don't want to look like that. Yuck.
Your heart is all that matters, how you feel, how you love. What makes you happy, angry. What turns you on. What turns you off. What ,makes you cry, laugh, sing run away.
That person is a fake poorly made copy of a human being. And you my dear, are not.


Sorry, ranting. Nope, not sorry. Meant it.

Dreams? What? Is that what we are discussing? Hmm... my dreams are mainly of other people, not sure I remember what I look like. Though as mentioned earlier, my perception seems heightened in my dreams.

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH for the sweet thoughts. I do like myself as a person and have the very best friends and people in my life to fulfill most all of my needs. Its just that I am overweight and have always been overweight. I would like for just once to be thin and beautiful and have men drooling all over me. I diet, I fail, I diet...I am trying most hard now with the diet and exercise, it just seems so frustrating sometimes and the results seem so little and so slow. But I keep trying.

I find that even though people say looks dont matter that with all the beautiful bodies out there, I cant get even get my foot in the door for any type of an intimate relationship with a man. I do believe there has to be some type of physical attraction between a man and a woman (or any type of romantic relationship), I just cant seem to find the men here that are attracted to me women for more than a friendship or just fucking. I am ready for some intimacy and have been waiting a very long time.

Thank you again, the kind words do make me feel a little more desireable and my self-confidence does increase a notch or two. You are very sweet yourselves--I am really glad I came upon this site/these boards, its the only one I visit anymore and the only one I feel most comfortable posting on. You all make people feel so welcome and so at ease :D
