What do you think this type of dream means?

Asked by essieness (7698points) March 1st, 2009

Sometimes I have dreams about intimate situations with my close girlfriends (I’m not gay). They’re usually not too explicit, but they are very intimate. Does anyone have an idea of why I might have these dreams?

well, I wouldn’t read that much into it.

I recently had a similarly weird dream: in the dream I was gay and had a steady relationship with this man I know (neither of us is gay in rl, not even close). But there was this girl that had a crush on me and I felt really attracted to her in the dream (even though I was supposed to be gay). The funniest part is that I also know the girl, and in RL she’s quite ugly and no more attracted to me than I am to her.

Sometimes dreams can mean a lot (eg that deep inside perhaps you have these urges), but others they’re just weird dreams with no meaning whatsover.

Intimacy, for most people, involves emotional connections, especially for a lot of women. It’s not the act you might be performing in the dream, but the fact that you’re so close to them emotionally. I believe that dreams along those lines are just proving that nothing can get in the way of your friendship because you’re so close to your friends. It’s your brains way of reminding you how much of a bond you have. :)

People report dreams of having intimate relations with everyone from their best friend to their brother to celebrities. It isn’t about the act itself, it’s about an emotion triggered, which isn’t just a sexual urge. Don’t worry about it – it’s just a dream.

Thanks guys and gals. I sort of thought that it was more about the emotional bond with the friend, but I guess I wanted to make sure I’m not suppressing some urges… ;)

I tell you what. Why don’t you tell me the details of the dreams you have? Slowly. In the dark. Wear leather.

If it were my dream, I’d ask myself what qualities those friends represent to me. Then I’d ask myself how I was wanting to merge with those qualities in myself more.

@essieness Thank you! I owe you one! I don’t know why Mozilla thought that was a real word.
