Weird dream prediction... am I psychic?

Question

I had the most random dream of my life; the olympics came to town and my dad was competing in the Cake Decorating event. (wtf!) So me and my friend Ashley are watching him build his cake, and he builds it to look like a hospital bed. (he was hospitalized for a mysterious illness when i was little.) This same friend from the dream, Ashley, gets a call from her friend a few days later, about half an hour after i told her about the dream. Turns out her friends dad is in the hospital with a week left to live.

weird connection to make right? Is it a coincidence or is there something else going on? there have been other times when i've had weird thought coincidences like that, mostly when people are feeling really intense emotion about a life changing situation.

Answer 1

I'm Pretty sure it is an coincidence.

Answer 2

See....i see things in my dreams. Weird thing..but then i see them in real life and get like a flashback. Its strange....but we can kinda relate.

Answer 3

that is really freaky!

Answer 4

coincidence. if your friend's dad was building the cake, then well... that would be a little freaky... but yeah I wouldn't put too much stock in dreams. I have dreamt of flipping and crashing my car probably 30 or 40 times by now and I haven't done it yet. I also pictured driving through new york city last night with all the buildings on fire. That I pray won't happen because I work here haha. good luck though, sorry about your friend's dad.  

Answer 5

yeah you are. it sounds to me like your gift is Precognition or seeing future events. i am psychic too. email or IM me and ill tell you what my gifts are.

Answer 6

dude, everyone has that, thats the same thing as "deja vu"

Answer 7

This is confirmation bias.  You found one real-life event (out of many) which coincides with just one of many aspects of your dream.  Really the only things you have in coincidence is that your father was once in the hospital and your friend's dad is now in the hospital.

Answer 8

well, that's a hard to tell honestly. if you are gifted, it'll manifest itself in other ways in your life.

For example: Do you have a tendency to know how your friends are feeling without having to see or talk to them? Like it just pops into your head that a certain friend is feeling really sad and you need to call them? Or you're around a really angry friend and suddenly find yourself spitting mad as well when you were perfectly happy before you started talking to them? Do your moods tend to change with the moods with the moods of your friends? And I'm not talking sympathetic mood change, but you find yourself geniunely feeling the same thing, as if it were your own.

Do you just generally feel different from everyone else? Like you don't fit in no matter where you go? Notice things, details, that your friends don't ,and when you tell them about it, they look at you funny?

Have dreams like this ALL the time?

These are just a few examples of what it means to be emotionally sensitive to someone. If you are, you know it, on some level, because it's in everything you do, not just a few isolated cases. And I hope that doesn't sound callous, I mean no disrespect, just trying to help you answer your question. It could also just be that you have a guardian angel who lets you know when a friend needs you, like a tap on the shoulder. I have a friend, I've known her since 4th grade, who isn't sensitive in the least, and she's had experiences with guardian angels pulling her out off stuff just in the nick of time. It happens to normal people too, you know?

What I'm saying is, if you are, you'll eventually know, but I wouldn't go jumping to conclusions, it'll find you if you are.
