Guys, is there hidden meaning behind "sweet dreams"?

Question

Do you only say it when you like the girl, or is it just something you say? What does it mean when a guy say "sweet dreams" to you? Is there any hidden meaning behind it?

I mean it's always impossible to tell off of one little statement like this whether a guy is into you or not.

That being said, I agree that sweet dreams is a more intimate gesture that is usually reserved for a boyfriend/girlfriend or someone you are interested in. At the same time though, it depends on the guy, some guys are naturally more sweeter/kinder and would use this phrase for a girl who they just thought was a really good friend

If she and I are just friends, I'll say "good night" or "sleep well".  If I like her, I'll say "sweet dreams".  That's just me, though.

I think for the majority of men there is a small romantic inclination behind it :)

It means when you go to sleep... have sweet dreams... instead of bad ones...😐

That he's covering your mouth with a rag soaked with chloroform and you're about to go to a magical land of PAIN.

Jokes aside , he's just being... nice... with a romantic flirty twist... now does he have feelings for you? Well only he will now but the hints are there.

EnjoysTea · Answer

Its just a way of showing that you care I think. When I say sweet dreams I want that person to have a good dream and sleep peacefully so its like wishing a good fortune upon them. You know how some nightmares scare people. But in my knowledge its a sign of affection or care.

tacoty21 · Answer

no it doesn't necessarily mean he likes you, though that is flirting if he really did put the heart. If this is a one time incident, I wouldn't stress on the meaning too much just keep an eye out for anything like it again. It just a nice thing to say, but it is a little extra than he had to say, so I see were your coming from.

thisGUYknows · Answer

saying sweet dreams is way too vague to have a hidden meaning. the guy should think of something better to say if he likes the girl.

iSkydive · Answer

I'd say it to a girl I was interested in and be genuine in how I say it. If I'm not interested in the girl, I'll just say "good night."

posted · Answer

It's guy slang for 'I hope you don't fucking wake up!'. Seems a bit cutesy for just friends generally.

WeaponZero · Answer

Only person I ever say it to is my 10 year old neice.  Saying it to an adult would feel kind of weird to me.

Havengul · Answer

SirRexington · Answer

He might want to get back together with you. He feels compelled to add "sweet dreams" to it.  Usually people only say this out of affection.
