Not being able to remember your dreams is usually a good thing. It probably means your dreams are mostly pleasant and calm. You tend to remember your dreams better if it was stressful or scary. The only times you should have to worry about your dreams is if you constantly have dreams about...
Stressors - School, work, girlfriend, etc. where you're stressed in your dreams. This can be a sign that you're under too much stress or not properly relieving your stress.
Dying - If you constantly have dreams about dying, see your doctor. Seriously, it's been proven that you more commonly dream about death when there's something physically wrong with you, whether you conciously know it or not.
Mental stuff - Bad life events, constant bad dreams about or parallel to something that's happened or you're afraid of happening, and so on. Again, see a physician and he can refer you to a phsychologist or phsychiatrist if you need it.

So pretty much, there should be nothing wrong. Although doing more with your life is never a bad thing.

I don't know about demons but doing anything hot with a woman in a dream is so intense compared to doing it awake it's scary, it's like a kiss or a touch in a dream are just incredible and powerful. <img src=smilies/magbiggrin.gif>

Well there's one thing that makes the world at least tolerable.
Well maybe toterable as Bozo the fucken clown nailed to a white wall is tolerable.

Super Rad. Both of those like... at the same time? Sounds like an awkward but good position to pull for a threesome if it was a chick demon.
But hey, this one's your dream. <img src=smilies/thumb.gif>

I had this experience too, it's very strange. I've had dreams where I literally felt like I was head-over-heels in love with some girl, more intensely than I ever felt in real life. Waking up after that isn't very pleasant.

You also tend to remember your dreams better if they're just plain flat-out weird. For example, I remember that one time I was in a mall-restaurant-McDonald's thing, and I was in some sort of RPG, and to get some money for me and my party members I was trying to hack credit cards or something like that. I also remember that one of the mini games was spinning around in an office chair as fast as you can.

Another very lucid dream of mine involved pan-frying a veggie burger. That's it, that's all. Sounds like something I'd do in real life, almost.

No shit, and you can never go right back to sleep and have the dream start again even though if you have a nightmare you can fall back asleep and have the nightmare start again, at least I have had that happen. <img src=smilies/magbiggrin.gif>

I discovered the sourece of my sleep parlysis. It seems that after I wake up from sleep in the morning, then fall back to sleep again on a certain spot on my head, sleep paralysis happens. Should I get it checked out?

Hmm... what picture would make a good sig? Any ideas?

I really don't know much about it, but I think it happens because you're in such a deep state of relaxation. If you've ever taken a class where you lay down, do deep breathing, and visualize relaxing things to get you in a relaxed state you'll know that you can feel the usually unnoticable things, like an itch on your arm. Well, as sleep is just deep relaxation, your body can sense the slight feelings that are unusual to your system, and these become placed in your dreams since your subconcious is your only state of awareness until you wake up.

Naw. I don't always remember my dreams either. The last one I remember was earlier this month and it was about my honey.

I had a dream heavily based on the D&D SpellJammer books once. That was quite strange, especially considering there was a shower in the ship's cafeteria. O_o

I also had a dream once where I was wearing some kind of 'power armor' (a suit that gave me enhanced abilities) and lots of guns. It was very Matrixy, but it was before The Matrix was around. It was awesome.

I don't know about that, sure kissing is great but I remember one dream I had about 2 months ago and for some reason I felt compelled to kiss this woman who was not special looking but I was totally drawn to her, and when I kissed her it was like our souls became one in this dream, like I found someone I had been looking for my entire life, like kissing an actual goddess. I woke up immediately after the kiss and sat up straight in bed and just started looking around the room for her. I felt so alone when I realized she was a dream because I felt so satisfied/fulfilled with love/content when I kissed her. In real life I could describe a kiss and how I felt but this dream kiss was totally beyond accurate description. I'ld say I'ld like to be kissed like this in a dream every night but the feeling of total lonelyness/emptyness when awakening would make it accually a thing I would not like to happen often. It also scares me that my subconscious mind can make me so happy and then so sad within a few seconds. <img src=smilies/magbiggrin.gif>

Fuck, I must need to go out and meet a woman or something. For the second time in 2 weeks I've had a dream of me kissing a woman. This is not like a wet dream or something like that, it's romantic and loving and short. This would normally confuse me enough but what is even stranger is these are woman from my past. One a lover and one a good friend and they both wanted to just curl up on my lap and have me hold them after kissing and it felt sooo right. I think my brain is fucking with me at night. <img src=smilies/sleep.gif>

I recently had a dream about being in English class alone because the rest of the class went on a field trip. People kept walking in the class and I was making fun of them. I then was told to stop by the substitute teacher...
