Today, my girlfriend broke up with me for a familiar reason; I apparently have night terrors that make me "Impossible to sleep in the same room with." I don't ever remember these dreams. Every other girlfriend I've had has ended up breaking things off with me for the same reason. FML

Today, my girlfriend of one year broke up with me because I started having PTSD induced night terrors. On my birthday as well. FML
Today, I woke up after having a nightmare that my girlfriend broke up with me. Needing reassurance, I told her about it. She became furious with me saying that she'd never do that and called me an "inconsiderate fucking bastard for even thinking that." Then she broke up with me. FML
Today, after my girlfriend had a nightmare this morning, I stayed home because she has really bad anxiety issues. A couple of hours later, she's pissed because I said I would stay up, but I fell asleep. FML
Today, my girlfriend dumped me after I told her I was learning how to start having lucid dreams. She was convinced the only reason I could possibly want to have them was so I could cheat on her in my own dreams. FML
Today, my girlfriend of a year broke up with me because I didn't fight some guy that started hitting her right in front of me... In a dream. She was totally serious. FML

Today, I woke up from an amazing dream I was having about my girlfriend. We were laughing and holding hands, the kind of dream I wanted to stay asleep for. When I finally got up, I was excited to tell her about the dream but then I remembered. We broke up a week ago. FML
Today, I had a nightmare and woke up in a cold sweat. My girlfriend was in bed with me at the time, and swears I yelled out another girl's name. She considers this proof that I'm cheating on her, and now she won't even speak to me. FML
Today, my girlfriend woke me up at 5am to tell me she was mad at me. Apparently I did something bad in her dream. She still won't talk to me. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me after 4 perfectly happy years together. The reason? He had a dream in which his dead former girlfriend from when he was 13 told him she still loved him. He now believes his dead childhood sweetheart is trying to contact him and I'm "in the way of their love." FML

People rarely remember night terrors, not your fault. Just find a nice deaf girl.

Night terrors and nightmares are different things. Nightmares are dreams while night terrors are just a pure sense of fear. As another commentor said they don't even occur during your cycle of sleep where you have dreams. Also fyl, sorry.

This has probably already been said but set up a camera and record yourself sleeping. Or you can ask a trusted friend to help. You can also go to a doctor of course...

luckly my husband went to a dr appt with me and the dr told him about night terrors. He thought i was just having a bad dream and would try and wake me up. That never ended well. Sorry op i totaly understand how you feel. There are sleeping meds that can help.

Have you considered going to a sleep specialist? There might be a reason for these terrors and your mind is just blocking them out. But, FYL if you can't even remember what you dream about and are single because of it.

If you KNOW you have night terrors, seek medical help. Simple.
