Afterwards we were both speechless just in awe. He was even misplaced. He asked me how I felt and I said like I am not even here. We drove back to my house (my parents at the time) and we said our goodnights. I remember walking through the door going upstairs to my bedroom moving as if I was gliding towards the top of the stairs I knew I was different. Something was very different with me. I walked in my room and immediately wanted to see what I looked like in the mirror so I went to the full length mirror on the back of my closet door to take a look.  I went close to the mirror to look closer at my face and for some reason I extended my hand to touch the mirror where my face was and my hand never touched a hard surface it just kept going through the air. I didn't realize I never touched the mirror until my whole body (although I didn't see it or maybe just my spirit was) inside the reflection of the mirror still facing the same direction foreword. I realized I was in the mirror and refocused my eyes around my image to the back of me to see the objects in the room (without turning around) I felt like I was in a separate box sort of I knew immediately I went into another dimension through the mirror.

I had an out of body experience while I was making love to him and my spirit went through the mirror when my physical self went to touch it not knowing my spirit had risen to the surface and out of me. I wanted to make sure that I stayed with it for several seconds more while I was in the reflection of the mirror because this was a "truly phenomenal experience." I did not speak or move quickly I briefly thought about walking forward to see where it would lead me when the sudden fear of being stuck in the mirror overcame me and not being able to get out! That's when I shook myself out of it and became one with my body again and was back on the other side of the mirror. I never told him of my experience or shared that story with anyone until much later in life for fear they would think I was crazy walking through mirrors! Yeah right. But as I grew older I realized it was nothing to be ashamed about and that I experienced something that probably most will never ever experience- an OBE.
