QotD: I Saw It Coming
Have you ever had a premonition about something that came true?
Depends. Are we talking about like, where you go "I bet he dumps her tomorrow," or actual visions/dreams?
The former I'm not so good at, because I'm bad at predicting other people's behaviour, with a few exceptions. I think I make the mistake of always believing other people will act in a rational and logical manner, but of course they don't. Human beings are creatures driven much more by emotion than logic :\. See also: why people remain in shitty relationships when they should have broken up ages ago and continue to make pathetic reasons as to why they're still in it.
As for the latter! Well. Hm. At the risk of sounding crazy! I do occasionally dream about things that will happen, but every time it's always been something insignificant, and it's always happened like almost directly after I've woken up. So I've never had any warning prior to someone's death or a major event or anything like that. It's always been things like, dreaming about having a conversation over the phone with someone, then waking up and then soon after hearing the phone ringing and it being that person I dreamt about talking on the phone with, and then somehow having the exact same conversation with them as was in the dream. Or dreaming that they were building a new shopping centre in Top Ryde, and then looking at the newspaper that day to see that they'd just announced that they were going to be building such a thing. Etc. They don't happen very often anyway, so I'm not that bothered. (Except when the topic comes up, and I have to choose whether to talk about it and sound nuts or lie o/.)
