Please help me rationalize this experience
Hey yall,
I (19F) had a weird experience last night. Last night around 4:15 I woke up and was already quite awake. 30 seconds later I hear someone loudly whisper "mom" in my native language (dutch). Mom in Dutch means "mama", and this whisper was like a really long maaamaaa. I was like what is going on so I treed to rationalize this experience.
It can not possibly be that I live in an haunted house. My house was build 8 years ago and my family and I are the first people to live here.
Its most likely also not my family as I sleep on the second floor and they sleep on the first floor.
Something else that I thought about is that it couldve been my dad. He passed away 12 years ago and Ive had a couple experiences where I thought it was him. The only thing is that this voice was more like a little girls voice of some sort? Not anything like my dad so I was scared shitless
Last option is (and most logical) is that it was my girlfriend. She talks in her sleep sometimes, but there are some flaws in this explanation.
- she only talks in her sleep when she has just fallen asleep. Not when shes already been asleep for 5 hours.
- It didnt really sound like her. I was lying down with my back facing her, so I couldve just heard it a bit different.
- She never uses the word "mama". We live in a province where the dialect is "mem". Thats the word she uses. Also when she sleeps.
- She also wasnt awake and therefore she couldnt have like pranked me. She was sleeping really deep. I tried to wake her but no succes.
Ive asked my girlfriend about it. She told me she didnt dream about anything and that she only uses "mem". She thought it was insane.
So please please help me rationalize this!! Im not like scared or anything of the paranormal but i do like to know what this couldve been.
