Can you help interpret this dream?

Asked by tytbaby21 (2points) October 17th, 2009

In the past few months, I have not been dreaming or lets say i just dont remember them. In the last 3 days I have been dreaming of the guy I am currently dating. I would consider our relationship very go with the flow but I do care for him. I am not certain of his feelings for me though. In the first dream we are at what appears to be a theme park but there is only a lake with trees lined up around it that you can swing from. He and I do so until maybe 4 guys come driving very fast around the corner. We run down the street until we reach apartment buildings that Ive never seen before. His relatives are standing around outside when we run up hand in hand. Shots are fired and I can hear the bullets whizzing past my head. We run inside the apartments where more of his female relatives are waiting. All the males leave and im left withthe women who all seem to have an attitude by the tone of their voices and the looks on their faces. The women leave me alone and a cousin of mine comes in. We talk briefly and the dream ends. The 2nd dream, I know he was in some type of trouble and the pd were after him and I.While on the run, we stopped at a store where he asked if I could get him chips and a brownie for myself. While in the store, he left me but came back. When we reached vegas, we went to an apartment building that I had also never seen. Just as we reached the door, the dream ended.

Is there something about your relationship that might be controversial to some? Is there a difference of race, religion, social class, educational status or something? Because it seems that either you are stressing about not getting approval by others or maybe there are issues where you are concerned if you can trust him and feel safe and at ease with him?

Only you can interpret your dream because your brain creates associations that are unique.

well there is about a 6 year age difference. He is the senior is this instance but besides that we both have a lot going on in our personal lives and i do find it difficult to express myself to him for fear of being perceived as naive or dumb or a million other things. Guess im not as comfortable with him as i would like to be.
and Beta..i just like a little outside opinion because sometimes its harder to see things when you’re so close to them. but thank you guys for taking the time to answer.

@tytbaby21 I can see that, but at the same time, sometimes inferences from others are entirely misleading. Something amongst the suggestions of the other person will appear to be applicable to your situation, so you latch on to it, when in reality, the dream is explaining something entirely different.

Then again, if you’re asking for an interpretation, there’s some underlying need to resolve an existing dilemma. Perhaps by asking, what you really want is clarification with some nebulous internal conflict. Maybe as long as you gain insight into anything, not necessarily this dream, it’s equally useful, or at least good enough. That’s an entirely different discussion though.

It means the homeless man who needed just a little money when you walked by him is upset with you, and has followed you home with the intent of taking everything you own after hanging you naked in the shower, with your wrists slit and your eyes gouged out.

Or maybe it’s just a fucking dream.

I definitely think that dreams have deep meaning sometimes…and other times they are extreme expressions of our waking emotions because we have no other outlet to expression them consciously.

Perhaps it is a symptom of being in a relationship with some one that isn’t your soul mate. It seems like you would acknowledge that you are both possibly using the relationship to combat loneliness, which is a decent reasons when both people’s needs are met.

Unfortunately it makes it very difficult to find your soul mate though, because when you are in a relationship you are not going to attract the healthy life long soul mate relationship that you really need.

I dream often. I have noticed that when I was fearful in my life I had dreams of running away from some foe, when I started facing my opponents in real life, that I started facing them in my dreams as well. I notice now that I tend to express my waking emotions in my dreams.

I learned in a general psychology class at college that if a person passes out due to drug or alcohol abuse that they have intense nightmares because they avoid their emotions, and they don’t have REM sleep when passed out, so when they do dream their subconscious feels the need to express 500% of the normal emotions causing intense nightmares that even extend into waking up and beyond.

Hope this help ;)
