What does this dream mean (see details)

Consciously maybe you don’t want to be attracted to him since he’s a “total tool”—but maybe subconsciously you might feel he’s not so bad and wouldn’t mind dating him. But then again, it might mean absolutely nothing.

It means you were asleep.

@snarp That is probably a much better and more accurate answer!! I like it!

Maybe your connecting with your boyfriend’s inner dork.

Maybe the guy sent you a commercial?

I tend to look at people in dreams in a slightly different light; a friend who is a psychologist suggested to me that people in your dreams are the subconscious mind’s way of self-reflection; that is, the people you encounter in the dream are intended to be a reflection of you, and the “characters” you encounter actually represent facets of your character, or how you relate to others.

Based on that assumption, I would guess that the nerd in the dream is actually part of you (maybe your inner geek), and the idea is that your involvement with him is actually your inner relationship with that facet of yourself.

You dreamed him because you know you will never really get him. But you are two-timing your current bf in your dreamscape.

@Snarp If if could give you all of my lurve for that, I would. Well… maybe half.

@jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities awww..come on!

When you say that ”I hold absolutely no attraction to this person” (which literally means “he doesn’t like me”, that is, there is nothing about you which attracts him) are you really trying to say that you don’t like him?

Maybe… bear with me here… your life is as confused as your syntax and meaning, and he is really your soul mate?

Nah… I don’t believe in them either. I’m just sayin’.

There are recent studies that support the idea that when we dream we are peeling the emotional context off something difficult to cope with or adapt to.

People with PTSD – like Viet Nam vets who wake up in terror believing they are still in combat are having a failure of the process. The term – lets sleep on it, it will clarify in time may relate to this process.

People deprived of rem sleep get all kinds of nasty side effects, but the most important relates to learning. When someone tells you a joke, and it reminds you of another similar one – this is due the way your brain stores things. Its organized by links of degrees of similarity. You may see peoples minds wander on tangents, they are actually jumping similar links.

If this were related – coping with something difficult, or a learning process then ask yourself this…

What does the dream relate to in real life. Are there similarities you hadn’t considered, but are struggling with. Explore the similarities between yourself, the boyfriend and the dork. There may be more to it, your just not yet to being able to put it into words.

What does the dream relate to your inner fears, angst, other. Does this hypothetical relationship relate to an inner fear (Oh my god he’s turning into a dork!) (Geez, now that I’m less infatuated, you seem like a dork?) – you will marry a dork in the future out of fears of inadaquacy.

Ultimately the sad truth is that we dorks got it all. You have no choice. Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated. Muhaahaha!

In the end the geeks shall inherit the earth.

@DrMC That was some high powered jedi mind tricks there, dork style of course! GA

These driods are not the ones you are looking for

You clothes give them to me now!

I’ll be back (wrong movie I know)

Illogical

Hi, I have heard that the last thing your thinking about is usually what you dream about. It’s like unresolved isssues bothering you. So, I’m not sure what is really up with the tool guy, but he has made some impression on you., good bad or indifferent. Ok, bye

i think that this means that in one point in time you will eventually have a strong relationship with this person just like the saying about how you should be kind to those who pain you the most i think that it goes to show that the people you ignore the most are the most important in you life
