i would like to have some sensory understanding, literally see through the other person's eyes, to see how similar our sensory perceptions are. there must be some objective reality going on because we can agree that red is red and square is square, but maybe if i saw through someone else's eyes, red would consistently look as salt tastes to me, and square would consistently look as a bell sounds to me. we have no way of knowing. that is what i have wanted to know since i was 11.

My head's already messy enough, I don't think I could handle another person's mind haha

I don't know, I think I would actually freak out if I could read what was in someone's head.

For me, it would be my husband. I often don't know what he is thinking or feeling and consequently feel like I don't know where I stand with him. This feeling is a result of my own insecurity and not anything he has said or done. We've been together for over 18 years and I know that I should not feel insecure about him after so much time but I don't know how to stop myself from feeling that way.

You and most other females in relationships with males.

A women I am in love with that is afraid of men. Someone broke into her house once and tried to rape her but she escaped, but has been afraid of men since. I just want to help her.

As a once off or perpetual access at my discretion? Because I think the latter would be far too invasive.

I think it could help when you first say “I love you” to someone to know if their response is sincere or them just being polite.

My kid's. I'm going through an ugly divorce and I'm sure he's telling me what I want to hear, instead of how he really feels about most things. I want to know what's really happening in his head.

I would like to know the mind of someone who understands and very successful in the stock market. I know that is shallow of me😉

Pope Frank. I am convinced that he is a closet atheist.

I thought about several different people and all I can come up with is nobody. I truly would not want to invade somebody’s privacy like that. Interesting concept. I’d like it to be possible to know their thoughts on particular subject, but not every single thought on every single subject.

@AMGT Absolutely to that!!!

There are a few occasions in the past that make me wish I could time travel and read my own mind.

I'd enroll in a college again but this time for a degree in AstroPhysics and I'd take every class that the smartest science whiz-kid takes and be his study partner.
I'm thinking I'd pass all the exams... LOL

Great plan!
