In a couple, it is with another person that we make love in a dream. Here too, there is no need to draw hasty conclusions. But Tristan-Frédéric Moir warns however : “If you dream that you are cheating on your spouse or that your spouse is cheating on you, it means that there is clearly a deception at the level of the couple or that we are deceiving ourselves. You are not yourself with your spouse or your spouse is not himself. »
