DEAR DEIDRE: UNTIL he stated one other girl’s title, my boyfriend’s sleep speaking by no means bothered me.
I’m 26, he’s 27 and we’ve been collectively for 2 years.

For months he prevented staying the night time, at all times saying he had an early assembly or an train class.
However ultimately, he admitted he was anxious his sleep speaking would disturb me.
It hardly ever impacts me. I’m fairly a heavy sleeper and infrequently don’t hear him. However one night time I heard him speaking about “Laura”.

Once I introduced it up the subsequent day, he stated he didn’t know anybody with that title. I’m unsure I consider him.
I preserve bringing it up, hoping to catch him out, and it’s inflicting arguments.
DEIDRE SAYS: Sleep speaking, or somniloquy, can generally be difficult monologues. Different occasions, it’s full gibberish.
It might not imply something in any respect.
Maybe that title was in your boyfriend’s head after listening to it on TV or studying about somebody on-line.
However this clearly bothers you, so sit him down and ask him to be truthful.
Take his reply as closing, as you would push him away should you preserve bringing it up.
