Because I sure have.
According to a
new study, sexsomnia is a type of sleeping disorder where sufferers (or should I say "sufferers") have sex while they sleep, anything from masturbation to intercourse. And a growing number of people are experiencing this phenomenon. Sleep-sexin is the new sleep-walking!
Now I'm thinking, phew! I'm not the only one who has woken up while taking my boyfriend's clothes off! Believe me it was quite jarring... for both of us. Especially when I screamed out loud when I realized what was happening.
Apparently one in 12 people in the study experienced a moment of unconscious love-making. So tell me, Datingish, are you with me?

i have neveheard of this and i hope i don't do that O_O
i'd be scared
Wow I've never heard of this before, interesting..
I've been hearing about this alot on our local news. I have never done this, even when my boyfriend sleeps over. But then again, we are both virgins.. and we'd probably have an even harder time having sex in our sleep.
....whaaaaaaaaaaaat???
I saw a documentary about this once. It can actually be dangerous in some situations. Thankfully you found out while with your boyfriend!
Scary.
Hahaha that's horrible.
Well I shouldn't say I suffer from Sexsomnia because I have no negative feelings about it; but it happened to me when I was in college. I woke up having sex with my girlfriend and just went along with it. At the time I thought, "Good thing's happening; why ruin it by asking?"
I've masturbated in my sleep twice before. My husband had to wake me up. Oddly enough though, it's only happened now that I'm pregnant. Weird.
I've only heard of this in relation to situations of sexual assault. x__x
I heard about a guy having this and he apparently raped a girl in his sleep. So this could definitely go from being something to laugh at, to something that we should be really concerned about. I don't know if that story was true or not, though. But still, it's something to think about.
is it still considered rape?
Occasionally I wake up with my hand wandering... That's all though!
I gave my boyfriend a handjob in my sleep, the scary thing is that I have no recollection of it, but he does. This has happened twice. Now if I do it in the middle of the night, my boyfriend will ask me if I'm awake, lol.
If you were beside your boyfriend and not just having a sleep over it would be fine I think haha.
I've been told I start foreplay in my sleep, gropping, touching, dryhumping. I woke up to cries of laughter...we did it still but after an explanation I too found it hilarious! lol
It happens... haha
I've never had sex or touched a boyfriend in my sleep, but I have a few times to myself. Its the orgasm that wakes me up. Cant really complain....haha.
My guy and I do this all the time! It's nice to know others do it too.
.... this makes me extremely paranoid. I don't really sleep well most nights either.
I am currently suffering from sexsomnia. It has had a horrible effect on my relationship. I masturbate every night in my sleep sometimes all night and I have no idea its happening when it is.... I dont remember a thing. But my boyfriend is conviced I do it on purpose and I know im doing it. He is really hurt and just thinks I'm a liar.
