I had horrendously gory nightmares last night. It's times like that I really wish I had a boyfriend to cuddle me and get me to relax. Roomie is a good friend but sometimes i feel like I need more emotionally.
Yeah its hard to explain until you have a kid. It's not even stress, that's a moot point next to the fear, desperation and utter helplessness at not being able to do anything about it.
I totally understand. I've stopped waking Mama when I have nightmares/night terrors. She's wonderful but it isn't the same as having a wonderful, caring, understanding man in bed to provide immediate comfort.
Just because one has a boyfriend it doesn't mean he's willing to cuddle, share a bed, or be woken up in the night. If I wake up and have a nightmare (and I do often, just thankfully not gory ones) I make myself a chamomile tea. I do agree that a HL in bed would be a much better alternative, but until one can buy that at the grocery store, chamomile it is.

The power of weird at work. Hopefully, it was just odd enough to make you smile, hon! =D
Feel better.
