My husband and I had a conversation in the middle of the night.  I woke him up by shaking him and talking very rationally about something not so rational!  He asked me in the morning why I had done so. I had absolutely no recollection of this!  I have now been told (by him!) that I talk quite a lot in my sleep, sometimes making no sense and sometimes full conversations. Does anyone else do this?

I talk in my sleep all the time, sometimes odd words and sometimes sentences.  When I was doing my Masters degree thesis apparently I talked about it in my sleep every night.  Sometimes I remember doing it, it's like I'm almost awake but not quite.  I sleep walk occasionally too.
my boyfriend talks in his sleep, again some times just words some times whole sentences but i can some times get a conversation out of him and get him to repeat what he had just said! its well funny!
My husband was once sleep talking and was adament that we went to find The Libertines becasue appparently "there are F*&!!ng loads of them"
His words not mine.

He also reveals the truth sometimes about little white lies he has told so make sure you are always honest!!
Yes, I do quite regularly. It's quite a vivid experience and can be quite annoying when you are awakened in the middle of it by your wife. The nearest I can get to describing it would be like feeling you are fully awake when you are sleeping. Sometimes I sit up in bed and have a conversation while apparrently fast asleep.
I've always talked, shouted, sworn, laughed, cried and sung in my sleep. When I was living 'at home' my Mum and Dad would tell me the next morning, about the shouting and swearing they had heard. People have also had full on conversations with me, but it's rare for me to remember the dream or the conversation the next day. 

I occaisonaly talk in my sleep. I agree with landies description of what it feels like. Once i remember being reallly frustrated because i was asking my sister for a key, and she kept saying "what key?". The next day i could remember thinking that she's so stupid not to understand me.

I must admit to not remebering a thing about it the next day.  We are going to Tenerife on holiday and I was asking him if he thought that the kids would like Canarian Potatoes or would they be too salty !!!! I think I always tell the truth in my dreams, thankfully I don't do anything too controversial in my daily life!
I remember waking up in the middle of the night in my school dormitory to see the boy in the bed next to me sitting up and talking gibberish, then being amazed when someone in the bed across the dorm answered him in exactly the same sleep-talk gibberish. The conversation went on some minutes. We also had this guy who used to say, "I'm NOT snoring!". He was the loudest snorer I have ever heard.
