The human sex drive is incredibly strong and dreams about sex can tell you how you are dealing with this important part of your life
You may dream about sex very often during times in your life when your hormones are very active, for example, during adolescence or during pregnancy.
A dream that you are having sex with someone other than your spouse or partner can be very worrying. Does it mean that there is something wrong with your relationship? Be assured that the purpose of such a dream is to provide you with a healthy way to fulfill your secret desires without causing harm to yourself or anyone else.
In fact, depending on the nature of your relationship, sharing your sex dreams with your spouse or partner can help you to become more honest with each other and enrich your sexual relations in waking life.
In the same manner, if your partner or spouse tells you that they have been dreaming about sex with someone else, it does not mean that they are unsatisfied with their sex life or thinking about cheating.
It is possible that sexual dreams can be a sign of sexual frustration. If you have gone without sex for a long time, your unconscious will attempt to satisfy your sex drive in your dreams.
You may also use dreams to satisfy your sexual needs if you find sex in waking life to be boring or unsatisfying.
If you think that is the reason you are having sex dreams, you should consider having a discussion with your partner or spouse regarding how you can both make your sex life more exciting. Of course, you should respect your loved ones’ wishes and values, and never expect anyone to perform sexual acts that they are not comfortable with. You may have to keep some of the more risqué content of your sexual dreams in your imagination, or else consider whether this relationship is the right one for you.
If you dream that you are having sex with an attractive person, your unconscious may be trying to help you feel good about yourself. This is especially true if you dream you are having sex with a sexy celebrity.

You may dream about sex very often during times in your life when your hormones are very active, for example, during adolescence or during pregnancy.
If you dream that you have sex with someone you know, you may have unconsciously picked up subtle clues that lead you to believe that person is attracted to you. That person may simply be too shy to let you know, or they may have a legitimate reason not to act on that attraction, for example, that either you or they are unavailable.
If you dream that your partner or spouse is unfaithful, there is a small chance that you have unconsciously noticed warning signs of infidelity. However, it is more likely that this dream means that you feel that your spouse or partner is neglecting you. Perhaps they are spending too much time at work or indulging a hobby, or not listening to you enough.
It’s very common to dream about sex with an ex. This doesn’t mean that you want to get back with your ex or that you are unhappy with your current relationship. Your unconscious is probably just looking back at the issues and patterns of your old relationship, so you can learn from them in order to improve your current or future relationships.
Carl Jung thought that sex between a man and a woman represented the union of the masculine and feminine aspects of your personality. If you are a woman, the masculine part of your personality is known as the “animus.” If you are a man, the feminine part of your personality is called the “anima”.
Because sex is associated with procreation, sex dreams can be about creativity in general. Being a particular powerful and creative lover in your dreams can mean that you have the potential to create great things when you are awake.
Have you had a dream about sex with a member of the same sex? If you are gay or bisexual, this will just be a typical sexual dream, and probably doesn’t bother you very much, if it all. However, if you consider yourself exclusively heterosexual, you may find such a dream to be extremely worrisome.
It is possible that a dream about having gay sex reflects a repressed attraction to members of the same sex. Many psychologists believe that we are all bisexual to some degree; your dreams give you an opportunity to explore your hidden sexual desires in a safe environment.
A dream about gay sex can also be your unconscious mind’s way of suggesting that you explore your attitude toward homosexuality.
Alternatively, a dream about sex with a member of the same sex can just be a way of pointing out our strong emotional bonds to your friends of the same sex. In the same way, if you are gay and dream about sex with someone of the opposite sex, your dream may simply be highlighting your close bonds with opposite sex friends.
