Just a sanity check here but... yall ever been mid conversation with someone and confused that they've forgotten a thing you talked about... until you realize that previous conversation took place entirely in your head?

I often have dreams about having conversations with peoole I know, often abiut really mundane stuff. It's very annoying, because my memory isn't great i genuinely struggle at times to figure out if it happened for real or was just a dream. Often I realise because it was impossible, like I'll be telling my parter that I chatted to X about something and they'll ask "when did you see X?" and I'll realise that I haven't seen them in weeks so I can't have had that conversation. It's even come up at work and I've had to check with coworkers, "have we spoken about this already?" (although I try and keep the "or did I just dream it" to my self).
