wow. . i've never heard of this before.I'm not sure that there is anything you can do to change her mind on that. You can go get help anyhow because if you do break up you might have a repeat episode with a new gal. Maybe you have surpressed anger or something?

I have heard about things like that. As most people who took highschool psychology can tell you dreams are your minds way of trying to work out a problem. This could have been caused by a fight, perhaps you were just left not knowing what to do, and while you were sleeping your subconcious just acted. It could also be as simple as suppressed anger.
Good luck with getting hep, and i hope that you are able to figure out whats going wrong.

See a sleep disorder specialist ASAP. There is a sleep disorder that causes this sort of behavior. Ask your family doctor for a referral. God Bless you.
