Did I do something very wrong??

Doesn't sound like you did anything wrong to me.

It sounds like you've discovered a great way to reach the Astral and it seems to me you should stick with it, but next time you get into the dream try to have an Astral destination in mind and fly there instead of continuing to participate in the dream pattern. Your surprise at hearing what your friend said probably triggered your return to your body and that's why your control drained away. Keep up the good work!!

Yes all sounds right.

"Then, I just started to tell everybody that it was a dream... and woke up 20 seconds after." -Nagual http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=8399

I'm glad I'm not the only person who's done this, but I'm a little concerned because I'd been having a lot of success with 'waking up' while in my dreams and taking over complete control. So to help my development in entering OBE's I decided on focusing on entering them through my dreams for a while. In fact its been quite successful, and fun. Every time I told myself for the past week 'I will realize I'm dreaming and take over the dream' I have. BUT last time I did this I was having a bad dream for some reason and this monster type thing dwelling in this house was literally eating my friends, so I told myself this was a dream and couldn't be actually happening, next thing I know I kill the creature and boom all my friends are standing outside with me having a good time as if it never happened. However my girlfriend standing next to me suddenly said something referring to the monster and in I looked at her immediatly wide eyed and said "You remember!? Dez, this is all a dream, its not really happening!" but she just looked at me like I upset her and next thing I know my usual 'control' over the environment (like being able to fly, being able to make things just come to me, ect) had all left me and I woke up less than a minute later. I was a little freaked out and have since had a hard time remembering any of my dreams, much less entering an OBE through them. Is this just my mind messing with me as a result of my 'freaking out' or is there something actually wrong? The only dreams I've had that I can remember were one precognition I had the other night which came true the next day, and one this morning that lasted about 15-20 minutes in my dream but was actually only 9 (I know it was only nine because it was between my multiple pressings of the snooze on my alarm clock [])
