This Morning my girlfriend asked me if I meant to text her at 3.30am this morning? I replied that I hadn’t texted her at all, she insisted i had and showed me the message which said it was from me and delivered at 3.30am. The message said ” Hey Baby, half Sun for questioning! X ” Not a private joke or anyhting, it really makes no sense, i have no history of sleepwalking or anything, was sober when going to sleep at 1.30am and to my knowledge slept well until 8.00am. Weird that i have no memory of it and it however meaningless was spelt correctly and appeared to be a sensical message!!!! Any thoughts???????

Last night I went to bed at 10:30. This morning when I woke up my boyfriend texted me asking me “what was with that text last night” I told him I didn’t text him but he told me to check my phone. Sure enough at 11:45 I texted him saying “OMG what are they doing”. I have texted him in my sleep before but it was always gibberish, this time the text was legit. I think it’s weird and it’s kind of scary. I’m guessing I was probably just dreaming about something weird and that’s why I made that comment, but it still kind of freaky. I have problems with sleeping and I can never stay asleep the whole night. I wake up 4-5 times during one night so I think that might have something to do with it.

I have been doing this for the past 3 years. I am not sure why or how, but my texts are very poetic and I have found out that they usually occur after I don’t sleep well for a few days. I am a diagnoised insomanic and I usually send a text while sleeping about every other month. I have started to save them and my favorite one is “Just when you think its ok, its funny how it all falls apart. Sneaky eyes and a wild heart can be destructive in a land with no love. Where are you from?” Sent to my ex-girlfriend. Pretty weird

I have experienced this before too.

I fell asleep watching a show about a band being In a bubble.

I woke up with a msg saying, “what???”

I went to my sent msgs and Apparently I sent a msg saying, “People are in a bubble.” Well I have no memory of sending it at all. I do remember dreaming about being in a bubble that night though. It was very strange.

Honestly, Rebecca, I don’t know what to suggest. Although if you have him read the info out there on the net about sleep-texting (of which, there IS some), then he should realise you’re not making it up. I know a few people who’ve told me they’ve done it, and received a ’sleep-text’ myself off a friend, so I firmly believe it does happen.

Chin up, you’ll get it sorted.

Just this morning I was woken up out of a dream when my fiance Joel called. He asked me what ‘the msg ment’. I must have been dreaming about him, and I had text him “have you showered yet?” It didn’t make any sense to me and I was still half asleep when he called. To make things worse, now he thinks that I am cheating on him and has broken up with me. I don’t know what to do. I feel so hopeless and angry at myself because I feel like I havn’t done anytihing wrong. I don’t blame him though it sounds really far fetched. I wish there was more awareness about this so he wouldn’t think i’m lying!! I have a 8 week old child to him and I am completely in love with him. Im so upset!!

I have text people in my sleep twice,
once was last night, i text my best friend in my sleep saying ,
‘look, just take us!!’
its really weird cause her name starts with s so i would of had to scrolled all the way down,
i have NO memory of it, appart from the fact it is in my sent messages.
i only knew about it when she text me today saying ,’what was that message about last night?’
i text her at twenty to one when i was sound asleep,
so yes, this is possible.

Hi All,
It sounds different and unnatural, text messaging someone while asleep. Anyway I personally don’t experienced yet.

Hi,
I believe this whole thing. I normally wake up every morning, look at my phone, and realize that i had texted someone while i was sleeping. i never remeber dong it, but the messages all make sense. it’s really wierd for me becauae i’ve never been known to sleep walk or anything. Now experiencing this, it’s just kind of crazy.

Hello there.
Well it happened today. I didn’t sleep all night because I had some work to finish and in the morning came all the other worries so I stayed awake until 1 p.m. I set my phone to wake me up at 2:30 and, as it often happens, i woke up at 5:30. Probably kept snoozing for 20 minutes or so (as usually). Which I tought was ok, altough I was almost late for a meeting, because I needed some. I eventually sent a message to someone saying that I was going to be late and while doing that, I noticed the last message sent. The nokia phones have this setting, the text remains in the editor after you send the message. I didn’t think much about it. Erased it, then stopped. ‘What was that?’ I tought. Then looked up the sent messages and found I had sent a message to a friend at 2:56 with the content “sample:director, friend etc” . It makes no sense at all. I checked out the set wake up time. It’s 2:50. Not 2:30. So I must’ve reset it or something. But the text make no sense at all.
Later on, after the meeting I told this to someone and he said he’d read about his phenomena somwhere. So I googled it and got here and on many other websites. It seems we’re really victims of modern time.
Well, thanks for reading this.
Good luck with your sleep..
