I have had some odd dreams lately.. they all involve people I know (or have known) but not in a realistic format. I think dreams are some form of subconscious thinking but figuring them out proves difficult sometimes.
A couple of nights ago, I dreamed that I was dating a guy friend of mine. In real life, we have been on one date but realized we just weren’t what the other was looking for. So in my dream, we were dating and it was getting serious. He came over to my family’s house for Thanksgiving along with his mom–who I’ve never met. I was sitting with my sister and we were drinking a glass of wine. Later that night, I heard his mom talking crap about me; saying that she didn’t like me and that I was a drunk, when in my dream I only had one glass of wine. I was unhappy that she didn’t like me and went up to him after everyone had left.
“Your mom hates me and thinks I’m a drunk!”
He replied, “You can’t please everyone.”
“But it’s your Mom! I want her to like me. I don’t even know why she thinks I’m a drunk when I only had one glass of wine,” I retorted.
“It’s not a big deal.”
Of course, in my dream, I thought it was a huge deal! But I don’t even know why I would have a dream about dating him. Weird! It’s probably because the last time I saw him, he looked damn good… I told my sister about my dream the next morning. She’s met his mom before and she thought it was odd since his mom is really nice. I really don’t know what to think about that one.
Then last night, I dreamed of an ex-boyfriend. In reality we only dated for a few months and it never got serious because of his wandering eye, so I broke it off. In this dream, I was with my mom at a BounceU or Discovery Zone type of place, I guess for a kid’s birthday. Somehow he found out I was there and stopped by. It creeped me out since I hadn’t talked to him for months, but my mom ended up telling him where we were. (Which is not out of character for my mom. Love you mom!) He started to beg me back, saying that he missed me, etc., etc. I really did not care. He was even getting on his knees begging! I told him to get up off the floor. I didn’t care about anything he was saying, I wanted him up and out. Even my mom was pleading for me to get back with him but I wasn’t about to deal with his drama again.
I don’t know why I keep having dreams about guys of my past… I had another one about my ex-fiancé, but don’t remember the scene. Probably for the best though. I guess I’m missing that romantic aspect of my life right now. It’s always fun to have someone to share everything with, but for now, I’m enjoying just being me!
