People sharing the same dream

I recently had a zombie dream which I guess is common now due to games like Left4Dead, Dead Rising and Movies which also feature zombie apocalypse. The weird this is that one of my friends was in my dream so I decided to tell her about it. Turns out she claims to have had the exact same dream and I was in her dream as well.

I've determined that she's not pretending because I've asked her about some of the things that happened in her dream and they were very similar if not exactly what I experienced in my dream.

We're part of a group of friends which all hang out together and watch movies together etc so it may just be that we saw something similar which my have influenced us in the same way which triggered this dream.

Personally, I think this may just be a coincidence but at the same time I can't help but think that there may be something more to all this. What do you guys think?

Hive mind?

LOL Dead Space reference .

Not really. Hive mind:

I actually thought it was a StarCraft reference.

hell yeh, anythings possible.

Last September I dreamed that I was making out with my best friend when we were on a band trip to Florida. When I told her about it, she said that she dreamed the exact same thing.

Turns out, when we went on that band trip this dream came true. That was one heck of a night.

Lol, perfect communism reference.

On Adarac's topic, I had a dream where, during camp, someone lent on a post and said something, the next day the same person did that and said the exact same thing and wore the exact same clothing.

also I've had a shared dream once as well

How is it a communism reference?

Surprisingly, It seems more people(for now) think that it is possible. This I did not expect.

I think that, most of the time, it is a coincidence.

I thought it was SC reference too. I had one of these too but that was a long time ago. We were both shocked when we had the same dream.

I heard about some people who ever experienced the same thing as you.

It's possible, but it was a mere coincidence.

Perfect communism is were all beings work towards a common goal. No one piece is more important than the others. Hive mind is essentially the exact same thing. Though hive mind suggests that all organisms in that group share the same thoughts, and perfect communism would be all organisms sharing the same thought process.

Oh so you were only referring to the "Hive Mind" Term. Next time please filter your quotes to be better understood.

Well, I thought it wouldn't be needed. After all, most of the examples provided fit my "perfect communism" idea.

No problem then. I think I've carried this on long enough so lets continue with the thread.

I really want to be a psychologist and in my mind there has to be a way of profiling how people think so if you're in the same category as someone else then it definitely is very possible for the people who like or dislike the same dream would have the same kind of dream on that subject. Sorry for sounding so serious!!
