Unsucessful LD's

Hey, first of all, I just want to say that this is a very nice site.

I’ve been LDing for several years, but I’ve never had an LD where I get to talk to someone in the dream that I’ve wanted to talk to for years. This is mostly because the dreams end before I can do what I need to. I’ve tried spinning, which helps, but the dream always ends too early. :grrr: Any suggestions?

-Thanks

you could shout increase lucidity really loud in your dream. Also if using MILD or not just try and picture the person you want to talk to and really think about them a lot so they just pop up in your dream anyways. And it would be easier to find, materialize or call for them if that person was all you were thinking about before you fell asleep.
