My wife speaks in a different language in her sleep. A completely formed language, with repeating words, clear articulation, sentence formation and proper cadence - but not of this world. She says that her parents told her she's been doing this since she learned to talk. She even responds to questions in her sleep... in the other language.

My wife suffers from very vivid dreams/nightmares.
One night, very late, she was dead asleep while I was reading in bed next to her. Snoring away gently, I'm perusing the newest collection of Stephen King stories.
In a blink of an eye, she goes from lying on her side to sitting up straight in bed, while making a noise of "nnnnnnnnnnyyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeeeAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
She sat there panting for a few seconds, then looked over at my terrified face.
"What?" she said.
I was only able to speak once my balls had descended from out of my chest and my butthole had unpuckered from being the size of a printed period.

My wife will hide for quite a while to scare the s**t out of me; I mean 10-20 minutes to catch me off guard. For awhile it happened when I got out of the shower.
It got so bad that I would creep out of the shower and look for her all over the house in nothing but a towel and a judo pose. There were a few times I searched all over the house only to find out she had left to go shopping.
Edit: Thanks for the upvotes! I'm glad to see I'm not alone in this...
We were raised to believe that finding love will be a smooth and exciting experience. But the truth is, relationships are complicated. When we start dating, we tend to look at our crushes with rose-tinted glasses, but their flaws come to light sooner or later. Maybe your partner has mild trust issues. Perhaps they have a secret hobby you're not aware of. Or maybe they have such odd habits that it sends chills down your spine.
Very few people like to admit that some of their behaviors are strange. But the truth is, "everyone has something about them that others may not understand and label as 'odd,'" New York and New Jersey-based psychotherapist Kimberly Hershenson told Bored Panda.
Sometimes it can be hard to figure out when a person is just acting weird, and when they are making others feel uneasy. If your loved one gives you a bad vibe that makes you feel uncomfortable, Hershenson suggested thinking about what drew you to them in the first place. "What are their positive attributes? Be inquisitive. Ask them about their behavior and try to understand why they do what they do."

My wife has muttered in her sleep before. Nothing very intelligible. But one night about a year ago I came in after she was already asleep, and started getting undressed.
"Hi honey!" she says in the cheeriest, most awake voice you can imagine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't faintly hoped, at this point, that I might be about to get lucky.
"Hi? What are you still doing awake? It's after midnight."
No answer. I put on my pajamas.
"Honey?" she says, as if to get my attention.
"Yeah?"
"You're gonna burn..."
I slept with one eye open that night. She did not remember in the morning.

Once I went to bed while my ex was allready sleeping. As I get close he suddenly sits up straight, grabs both my upper arms and screams "Who are you?!". He then keeps staring at me in a rage for a full minute, while still holding my arms real tight. He was clearly mistaking me for whichever enemy was lurking about in his dream. And as my ex was a huge guy, this was pretty scary. Then as suddenly as it started, he went back to sleeping like a baby.
#5
I woke up around 3AM after having a nightmare about a ghost. I woke my SO for comfort, but he turned to me and said, totally serious, "there are no such things as ghosts, just giant mothmen that take you away while you're sleeping." He remembered nothing the next morning.

My girlfriend is incredibly talkative in her sleep. She usually says funny s**t like "tell that jalapeño to put some pants on!" But sometimes the stuff she does gets pretty creepy. One time I was on my iPad and she started laughing in this really thin, stiff, creepy horror movie kind of way and then jolted up (still fully asleep). She proceeded to look around the room pointing and laughing at things in the same creepy way. I could see her actually moving her head seeing something new each time. Then I asked her (since she is very awake in a lucid dream state) what she is laughing at...she says "all the little kids in the room are laughing at me." Typing it out it doesn't sound that creepy but I was so freaked out I jumped up and bolted to turn on the lights. Didn't sleep that well that night.

Omg I would just simply die. In all actuality, I do this to myself, where I'm standing in a room either very late or very early... Then I convince myself that someone is either stalking me or is going to kill me if i stay. I don't know why I do this. Does anyone else relate?
While misunderstandings and conflicts in relationships are inevitable, things usually get resolved through honest communication and discussion of boundaries. According to the psychotherapist, your partner’s behavior can affect your relationship only if you let it.
She asked you to think about your initial deal breakers when you were dating. "Most likely, this behavior wasn’t on there. What will help you to move past it?" What really matters is how serious and determined you are to protect your relationship and resolve this problem.

My husband and I used to own Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock standups. Sometimes when he was in the shower, I would take the standup and quietly set it outside the shower curtain, so that when he opened it BAM there Mr. Spock would be. Kirk, being the creeper that he is, often stood over my husband while he slept, and hubby would wake up to Kirk's happy smirking mug right above him.
Man, I'm lucky to be married. I'm way too weird for my own good.
#8
I tend to talk in my sleep, and one morning my husband woke me up to tell me that in the middle of the night I had very clearly said, "they're in the next room...lets kill them." I guess I'm the creepy one.
Whether you see your partner acting suspicious for the first time or had to deal with such behaviors for years, it can be hard to know how to react. Hershenson explained that you shouldn’t hold your feelings back but remember to be kind. "Criticizing and putting a partner down is never the answer," she continued. "Share something about yourself that makes you uncomfortable and try and relate to your partner."
Just remember that "they are doing this behavior for a reason." Your partner may not even realize they are making you feel creeped out or they might not see it as a big deal. Whatever the reason, you should not feel this way in your relationship, so try talking to your partner and give them a chance to change.

It seems like every time we get into a huge fight and I start crying he gets a boner.

One night my spouse got up to get water just as I was starting to fall asleep. When she came back in the room she crawled around the bed to my side, and licked my hand, which was dangling over the edge of the bed. I woke up thinking a dog was in the room, saw her crouching down there and jumped out of the bed. I couldn't even speak for a minute because of how much it scared me, and she just rolled around on the floor laughing hysterically.
#11
Before we started dating, my wife stalked me. Once, she called me at 1:00AM, saying that she just happened to be on my street and found a lost dog, knowing full damned well that I have a soft spot for strays. When I came outside, she said the dog ran away, and we spent the next two hours trying to track it down. I'm starting to think that there was never a dog.
#12
My husband will do this thing where he gets naked and bends his knees and elbows and kind of shuffles toward me, rocking his pelvis and wiggling his fingers. It's the creepiest thing ever and he likes to chase me around the house doing it. The more I scream the more he does it. I don't think it would be as creepy if he had clothes on and his balls were in check.
#13
She'll gaze deep into my deep blue eyes and say how much she loves them...
Then quietly adds "I'm gunna cut them out and keep them when you die"
#14
My husband walks and talks in his sleep regularly.. The list of creepy things is endless, but the creepiest so far has been one night when he burst out in hysterical laughter in his sleep followed by, "Tell the janitor I'm sorry for the blood on the walls"
#15
My wife will sometimes mumble or talk very incoherently in her sleep. Usually it's more or less gibberish and can even be cute. BUT, one night about a year ago, I kinda half woke up in the middle of the night and rolled over and found my wife on her side facing away from me. I, of course, took this as a perfect opportunity to spoon. I scooted over behind her and just as I put my arm around her she shrugged me off, almost instinctively. So not think much of it, I waited for a second and tried again. Slightly re-positioning myself I went to scoop her up again, this time however, she didn't simply shrug me off. Nope, this time, just as I made contact with her, she threw my arm off as she sat up, turned to me wide eyed, and said in an almost demonic voice, "DON'T YOU F**KING TOUCH ME!" Then she immediately rolled back onto her side motionless. Nearly sh**ting myself I pretty much vaulted to the opposite edge of the bed where I stayed the rest of the night.
The best part? The next morning I awoke in a near panic to her trying to spoon me. Asking as to why I was so squirmy, I told her what had happened during the night. She began to laugh hysterically saying she doesn't remember. To this day, I always poke her before I try to cuddle during the night.
#16
I have night terrors. I also talk in my sleep. I also sleep walk.
In the past I have smacked my fiance's chest in a dead sleep and told him he was a bad gorilla. He has found me in the kitchen cracking eggs into a cup (and missing the cup). He asked me what I was doing and I responded with "Im preparing for labor". I've never been pregnant. Ever.
#17
My husband had fallen asleep on the couch when I went to pick up pizza. I tried to wake him up and this happened:
Him: "I'm sorry"
Me: "What? For what?"
Him: "The prisoners. They wouldn't tell me what I needed so I chopped their hands off"
Me: "No you didn't, wake up and eat your damn pizza"
Him: "I cut their hands off and they couldn't eat and they died"
Me: "Seriously, what the f**k. WAKE UP"
Him: "I drove the tank and squished people"
I actually recorded this 10 minute conversation. When I finally woke him up I played it for him and he was confused but thought it was hilarious.
He was military at the time and had never deployed....That I know of..
#18
She likes to hide under our bed when we are about to go to sleep. And when I stand right next to the bed she would grab my ankle and scare the s**t out of me, followed by an evil laughter and a face full of satisfaction for scaring me.
#19
Stood up every doll our girls own, in the kitchen on the counter, during the night…knowing full well I always get up for a glass of water. flipped on the lights, had a panic attack, and had doll nightmares for months
#20
My wife has long dark hair. She likes to hang it over her face like the girl from the Grudge/The Ring and lean on the outside of the bathroom door when I'm in there taking a shower. She usually sits down on the floor and waits. I'll open the bathroom door and she'll crumple in like a corpse without making any noise. So I'll see some movement out of the bottom corner of my eye, then my brain will kick in and think something is attacking my feet, then I'll scream like a crazy man and she'll die laughing on the floor. Then I'll be paranoid for a month or two, then she'll do it 10 months later when my guard is completely down.
#21
Not 'the' creepiest, but still creeps me out. He has super long toes. He can grab things with them. Anyways, we are sitting down, watching tv, and he puts his leg next to mine and grabs my toes with his toes and say 'Wanna hold toes?' No, no I do not! I hate feet

My husband can pick stuff up too and pinch with his toes. He's a Scorpio. That may be it.
#22
My wife occasionally tries to make visual contact with my butthole. She's never made any kind of sexual advance in that sense. Just every once in a while I'll catch her sneaking up on me when I'm naked or changing with this goofy look on her face. I'm sure she only does this because I act super self-conscious of my butt area. Usually I'll notice her and run away giggling.
She's yet to be able to confirm visually whether or not I actually have a butthole, which I guess means I'm winning.
#23
My husband found an app for our pc webcam that allowed him to stream to an ancient flip phone of his. He proceeded to compliment my shirt, ask me why I changed, how my sandwich tasted...it went on for hours. I started freaking out and thought someone stole his phone and was watching me.
I'd try to call him and he'd refuse to answer the call, or he would pick it up and breathe heavily. It wasn't until I was on the verge of tears that he decided to call me and explain.
I could have killed the man.
#24
I had a boyfriend that was very controlling. After arguing with me or yelling at me he usually wanted to have sex a short time later to "make up". Cool, except he just got done screaming at me for visiting my sister without his permission or something similarly crazy.. I would refuse and he would sit as close to me as possible and start masturbating. If I ignored him, he would start making noise, or if I told him to stop, he would yell some more. .. Yeah.. don't know why I put up with that s**t.
#25
When I met my wife, she was on some crazy ADD meds. Her MD was a f**king idiot, and had her on a super dose of adderall for mild ADD. One night, she had med related psychosis. She got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, and she came back completely feral. She snarled and paced, and when she realized my presence, she tried to strangle me. Then she stopped and went back to sleep. Nothing like it has occurred in the 14 years since.
#26
My hair is kind of long and when I brush it, it creates hairballs. I normally just throw them away ASAP but one time I was running late and just left it in the brush. When I got home, my SO was playing with it. I came over to grab it and he refused saying he felt sad throwing it in the trash as it was my hair. He kept it for a few days before he forgot about it so I threw it out.
#27
This is a story from me, but of one of my good friends. Apparently, the wife was working on her laptop after a long day and was obviously getting frustrated. The husband wanted to cheer her up and maybe get a little love in return. So, he went up behind her and massaging her shoulders. THEN, he leaned forward and whispered into her ear (whilst using his best sexy voice) "I saw my dad do this to my mom once..." A few seconds of unbearable silence passed and then "that was weird wasn't it"
#28
My wife has problems sleeping and tends to talk (mumble) in her sleep. The worst, however, is when she sits bolt upright screaming. This happens once or twice a year. I've also woken up to her kneeling on her pillow, batting at something on the wall, and making frustrated sounds.

I have ptsd from a previous assault and there were (still are, but fewer and farther between) many nights my husband would wake up with me physically attacking and screaming that there was no way he was going to touch me or hurt me and such. He couldn't physically restrain me because that's what had happened in real life and it only made me fight harder. He learned to gently wake me up and talk very softly to me. Then I would dissolve in sobs once I woke up and remembered the dream and also felt horrible for hurting him. He's a very good man.
#29
Not married but one of my female friends is about 6'8. One day I was using her shower and had my eyes closed as I was washing my hair. When I opened my eyes I saw a face looking down at me over the shower. It scared the living s**t out of me. I screamed, and slipped, landing on my ass. As I curled into a ball and started crying, I heard her laughing like a maniac. I'm not sure why, but it was horrifying. If she would've peeked through the curtains, I don't think I would've been as scared.
#30
So I wake up in the middle of the night to my husband hitting me in the face with his pillow (he was still mostly asleep). As he's putting the pillow back under him I asked: "What are you doing?" His reply: "I don't know."
Now what makes this creepy is he only remembers removing his pillow from my face. His first thought was OMG I just tried smothering my wife in my sleep! He didn't tell me his part until I asked about it the next morning. I've given him a black eye in my sleep so we're even.

My wife waits at the bathroom door in silence when I'm s***ting and when I open the door she gets on her hands and knees and barks like a dog. Scares the s**t out of me everytime.

I'm going to answer for my husband. One night we had his friends over and it was getting late. I told them leave whenever, they wouldn't bother me while I was sleeping. When my husband decided to come to bed he opened the door and I was lying there staring at him. He asked me, "what? " thinking I was mad at him. I didn't respond so he thought maybe I was dead. So he shook me, I glared at him and rolled over. I had been sleeping with my eyes wide open.
My husband scares the hell out of me when I'm showering. He'll pop his head in and wait for me to notice because he knows it will startle me. It got so bad one night I kept jumping at every little sound and couldn't enjoy my shower.
#33
My husband likes to take pictures of my sleeping if I fall asleep watching tv on the couch. Bonus points if he catches me drooling.

One night I brought Perfume, lotion, small things to keep at his place. I went to place them on his dresser, where I found a good size ball of my own hair.

My ex husband tells in the most sexy voice : you smell so good, your skin is so soft, I'm gonna give you 70% discount.

My husband and I are too jaded to scare each other, but I have a cat that freaks me out sometimes. She'll sit in weird places for hours without making a sound, and it always kind of spooks me once I realize she's there. It feels weird to turn my back on her after that. She has a presence my other cats don't have. We like to joke that she's not actually a cat, but some alien being in disguise that tricked us into taking her in. It doesn't help that she doesn't really act like a cat. Her 'meow' sounds like if a human said meow without trying to sound like a cat. She's really sweet though, so I kind of don't mind if she's just an alien trying to steal my soul

My husband sometimes talks in his sleep. I have been informed he fed the statue. What statue? The statue in the garden. We were at his mums and she has a small easter island head in the back garden. He once told me he bought 11 ships. What for?! For the army. Most recently, he yelled at something in his sleep. Jumped me awake. Once I made sure he was ok, I sniggered all the way to the bathroom xD

I love reading these types of things because they really demonstrate how complicated our brains are. They also remind me that humans are still animals with animal drives and instincts. Fascinating. A lot of these behaviors aren’t logical and don’t make sense, yet we are compelled to do them anyway. Reptile brains…

I'm late to it, so no one will probably see it but, my sister's eyes crack open when she sleeps. It's how I could tell if she was actually asleep as a kid, but you could also hold whole, seemingly coherent conversation with her too. Sometimes she'd even sit up and open her eyes all the way while talking to you. She never remembered any of it later. Worked against me one day when we were teens. She was sleeping on the couch and I went to take a shower. I passed out in the shower briefly, but managed to crawl out and get over to her. I told her what had happened and she just looked at me and said "oh. That's not good" rolled over and continued sleeping.

My bf needed a nap but asked me to wake him at a certain time. I went to wake him up and he was talking to me and I had hold of his hand and he said 'Your foot is like an orang utan's foot.' I told him it was my hand and he argues with me that it was my foot. He was still asleep!

My only other story would be, about 3 years ago my now partner (wonderful man) decided to hide in the dark of my daughters room (she was at her Dad's at this time) while I was just getting dried and dress from my shower, I came out calling his name because I needed his help with something and when he didn't answer I went to the top of stairs, I heard a noise and called his name again, he then came running full bolt at me, from the dark, I screamed so hard I collapsed on the floor and cried, he felt so bad he scooped me up and cuddled me on the spot, needless to say, he's not scared me like that since hahaha

I talk in my sleep sometimes. According to my husband I talk in my sleep quite loud. I once screamed to my husband , while he was sleeping peacefully next to me " do not get on that horse. He is dangerous!!!". We don't have horses,never went horse riding or anything. I have no idea why I said those things. My daughter got woken up once too ,because I told her ( also loudly ) to stop flying around .

I’ve been to places that didn’t have locks on the bathroom door (including one of my former residences) and all it takes is a butter knife to unlock a bathroom door lock (I’ve had to rescue my grandson twice when as a toddler he locked himself in and freaked out when he couldn’t open it) so even if there is a lock and it gets used it’s not necessarily much of a deterrent.

I will NEVER EVER get people that like to play "pranks" on others. It is already bad enough if someone scares you unintentionally (like you did not hear them approach and they start talking to you) but if my SO would ever scare me for FUN they would be my ex that very second. That is, if they survived it at all - I have a HUGE immediate "fight" response if scared. And spare me all that "but it was Halloween!" bullish!t - prank me and you are out. No discussion. This is not a drill.

Yeah, but you’re not their partner. Some couples get a real kick out of it. It’s one of their “things” and labeling it so negatively is SO unnecessary judgmental. Some people tear their dogs like their literal babies and through a different lenses that could be viewed as deranged. Just an example.

There are so many examples of people not respecting their SO space. My wife had this annoying habit of eating out of my plate. I had told her over and over that I didn't like her doing it. What pissed me of was that she wouldn't ask, she would just take something and eat it. I think it was a control thing for her. The last time she did it, I lost it, and threw a screaming fit. She hasn't done it since.

I was bullied A LOT by my brother growing up and as adults we had quite a toxic relationship, I remember during my pregnancy he would bully and belittle me all the time, I remember being heavily pregnant and I had a night terror, I vividly remember in my dream, running away from someone trying to stab me (it was my brother) to get away I bit him as hard as I could and then climbed up a tree. I awoke to find my partner at the time staring at me in horror and wincing in pain, I had bit him right on the the side of his back and tried to scale him. He asked me what the f*** was going on and I sat there crying saying, i had to get away he was trying to kill me. So that was fun! Another time, also while pregnant I was told by my then partner that I stood up out of bed and screamed at the walls to shut the f**k up already, apparently I could heard mice, scratching in the walls and it made me irritated

My ex was teaching math at a very small religion based school. He hated every minute of it. On more than one occasion, he would start "teaching me." I would ask him questions and he would answer back. I was laughing so hard I was crying.. Then he started telling me what homework to do. I finally told him, and he decided that he could not continue to teach, and turned in his resignation. He finished out the year, and the day after school ended, we moved.

Sometimes she'd even sit up and open her eyes all the way while talking to you. She never remembered any of it later. Worked against me one day when we were teens. She was sleeping on the couch and I went to take a shower. I passed out in the shower briefly, but managed to crawl out and get over to her. I told her what had happened and she just looked at me and said "oh. That's not good" rolled over and continued sleeping.

My bf needed a nap but asked me to wake him at a certain time. I went to wake him up and he was talking to me and I had hold of his hand and he said 'Your foot is like an orang utan's foot.' I told him it was my hand and he argues with me that it was my foot. He was still asleep!

My only other story would be, about 3 years ago my now partner (wonderful man) decided to hide in the dark of my daughters room (she was at her Dad's at this time) while I was just getting dried and dress from my shower, I came out calling his name because I needed his help with something and when he didn't answer I went to the top of stairs, I heard a noise and called his name again, he then came running full bolt at me, from the dark, I screamed so hard I collapsed on the floor and cried, he felt so bad he scooped me up and cuddled me on the spot, needless to say, he's not scared me like that since hahaha

All this makes me even happier I'm married to someone who would never dream of pulling any of this sh*t on me.

I talk in my sleep sometimes. According to my husband I talk in my sleep quite loud. I once screamed to my husband , while he was sleeping peacefully next to me " do not get on that horse. He is dangerous!!!". We don't have horses,never went horse riding or anything. I have no idea why I said those things. My daughter got woken up once too ,because I told her ( also loudly ) to stop flying around .

I’ve been to places that didn’t have locks on the bathroom door (including one of my former residences) and all it takes is a butter knife to unlock a bathroom door lock (I’ve had to rescue my grandson twice when as a toddler he locked himself in and freaked out when he couldn’t open it) so even if there is a lock and it gets used it’s not necessarily much of a deterrent.

I once slapped my husband hard and told him that he could certainly build a garden bed for my geraniums - he could get the extra soil he would need from the dirt in my belly button!

I talk in my sleep according to my friends, I’ll say anything from “you put a waffle cone on a horse and BOOM he becomes a unicorn” to “we have to leave, just leave the dead body, the cops are coming”

And I’ve straight up sobbed in my sleep after having dreams about REAL CONVERSATIONS THAT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS AWAKE. I replayed the conversation in the dream and friggin cried because I’d come out to my parents all over again, and all over again they invalidated my identity and made me feel like nothing.

I will NEVER EVER get people that like to play "pranks" on others. It is already bad enough if someone scares you unintentionally (like you did not hear them approach and they start talking to you) but if my SO would ever scare me for FUN they would be my ex that very second. That is, if they survived it at all - I have a HUGE immediate "fight" response if scared. And spare me all that "but it was Halloween!" bullish!t - prank me and you are out. No discussion. This is not a drill.

I really don't understand why so many people find it funny to deliberately frighten their partners, to the point of screaming and shaking. It's abusive and twisted and there's honestly something wrong with you if this is how you get your giggles.

Yeah, but you’re not their partner. Some couples get a real kick out of it. It’s one of their “things” and labeling it so negatively is SO unnecessary judgmental. Some people tear their dogs like their literal babies and through a different lenses that could be viewed as deranged. Just an example.

There are so many examples of people not respecting their SO space. My wife had this annoying habit of eating out of my plate. I had told her over and over that I didn't like her doing it. What pissed me of was that she wouldn't ask, she would just take something and eat it. I think it was a control thing for her. The last time she did it, I lost it, and threw a screaming fit. She hasn't done it since.

I was bullied A LOT by my brother growing up and as adults we had quite a toxic relationship, I remember during my pregnancy he would bully and belittle me all the time, I remember being heavily pregnant and I had a night terror, I vividly remember in my dream, running away from someone trying to stab me (it was my brother) to get away I bit him as hard as I could and then climbed up a tree. I awoke to find my partner at the time staring at me in horror and wincing in pain, I had bit him right on the the side of his back and tried to scale him. He asked me what the f*** was going on and I sat there crying saying, i had to get away he was trying to kill me. So that was fun! Another time, also while pregnant I was told by my then partner that I stood up out of bed and screamed at the walls to shut the f**k up already, apparently I could heard mice, scratching in the walls and it made me irritated

My ex was teaching math at a very small religion based school. He hated every minute of it. On more than one occasion, he would start "teaching me." I would ask him questions and he would answer back. I was laughing so hard I was crying.. Then he started telling me what homework to do. I finally told him, and he decided that he could not continue to teach, and turned in his resignation. He finished out the year, and the day after school ended, we moved.

why "married"? just because we don't have a legal paper we don't count?

Some of these commenters need to get a grip. Not everything is abuse, and if you just “leave” everyone you’re gonna end up alone and lonely. It’s graceless and selfish.

I sometimes sneek into the bathroom when he in the shower and pinch his butt. He is 6'7 manly man and screams like a small 3 year old. It cracks me up every time. He eventually laughs after letting out some words that would make a mechanic blush.
