Two people having an identical dream.?

Question

My boyfriend was woken up to me talking in my sleep.

However I replied out loud to a question he had asked in his dream directly after he had asked it. We were both having the same dream. I was in a deep sleep and he was sleeping lightly. It was a very clear reply, there was no way it was a coincidence, due to the content of the dream.

I could explain exactly how he was expressing himself to me - hand gestures, tone and words. and they were exactly what he was also dreaming. Not only was this a mutual dream but I verbally communicated with him.

What is this called? Does anyone know anything about this?

Answer 1

Stigmatic Dreams is what its called. its when you've spent so much time with someone that your nervous system has kind of adapted. therefore causing identical brain wave patterns.
