I don't understand

[odbod]

The other night, I had a dream that seemed so awkward, so pointless that I had to tell everyone I knew. To me, it wasn't really pointless, it's probably trying to tell me something.

Anyway, dreams are weird, cause when you are in a certain area you've seen over and over again, it's different in your dreams. Well, I'm walking around in the farm areas of buckeye. The fields are smaller, as in, I can walk across them, and they feel like they are smaller growing crops, and smaller fields itself. I'd walk down the roads which are ofcourse smaller as well.

I see people, talk with them, then I went to a store a couple of times. I think I went to a house or something.

Anyway, according to the dream I was going out with someone. The name was not given though (or I don't remember). I ended up going to my house, cause my girlfriend was crying, and I was wondering what was up. She said she was crying cause people were telling her I was talking about her, and saying I didn't want to go out with her at all. I told her it was all rumors and that I indeed loved her.

END--

Now, here are the strange things of reality.

Back in September, a girl in my mom's area wanted to meet me in person (myspace girl, a year younger than me). So I did, and I met her friend as well. Now this girl had a crush on me. So, in october, she wanted to go out with me. I said, "well, I don't know". I never did give her a logical answer, and we barely talk anymore, cause of her being busy and all.

Next thing, the girl in my dream, resembled "Sheena", the girl who wanted to go out with me. But, as I said, I don't know if it was the name of the girl in my dream, OR someone else.

Maybe someone can solve this one, cause I'm stomped.

Looking for meaning in dreams is often like looking for a needle in a haystack. Research shows that almost all dreams are really just everyday matters, not something deep and meaningful. It is also very common for dreams to use memories as the base of the dream. What I mean is, I can't tell you whether or not the girl in your dream was Sheena, but your mind may have simply generated a random character that resembled Sheena. Not everything that you dream actually has something to do with personal experiences.

Nonetheless, if you really want to interpret dreams, I've found that interpreting your own is the closest thing to certainty. Since no one else knows your mind - even those people who like to read minds a lot - only you will know what (if anything) your dream is "saying."

I cannot help here, but many dreams DO have a meaning in reality. I know that at least half of my dreams had to do with something important when I still had them. However, such dreams... feel... different than other meaningless dreams do, and with practice are easy to tell apart. Wish I could help, hope all goes well.

Oh yes, I did not mean to coney that dreams never have meanings. If I presented that idea, I'm sorry. I simply meant to say that too many people think every dream they have has a secret, hidden meaning when they probably don't. Dreams are quite often just dreams.

[Brilenus]

The number of meh-dreams and meaning-dreams depends on the person. Some people have all pointless dreams, others have all useful dreams, others have various mixtures.

[zeroagent]

Ok, I suppose there is sense in that. But research still shows that most people have dreams about everyday events (mowing the lawn, going to school, etc.). I know that not everything is explained by research, but I like to look at scientific fact before jumping off a cliff. I still believe in the idea of gravity.

Well, the many dreams I had end up telling me what happens in the future. I swear to you, in my other post, Kelly is going out with someone 3 months after having the dream. (and my dream showed me it). I don't know, I just thought something had to do with this.

And here is something that seems to put this in order. A girl seems to like me on my bus, always sits by me, always likes me ot smile. Loves to talk to me... Hmmm.. Maybe that girl in the dream?

[Mr.Experiment]

It could be, if your dreams are telling you what happens it is probally a form of Precog because I also see the future within my dreams. Try to learn more about it and I am sure it will come to you.

Maybe you do love her? Just ask yourself that question, and maybe even you are talking about her, and you mind wants it to end.

idont think every dream has to have a reason. i dont look for signs in my dreams. its just an adventure

and when i remeber my dream i can usually trace them back to stuff that happened during the day

There was this song that I listened to now and then, called "Totem" by Rush. It had the quote "Dance around my Totem Pole". Either I was dreaming or something, but I swear I had a dream I was in some place (I will call it mystic ruins) and there was a totem pole, and everything seemed to revolve around it (like everything was built around it). I think this dream was nothing, just something really simple.

Anyhow, to update on my strange dreams. Well, that girl. I did have feelings for her, we are currently dating as it is. But then, a new problem arose. That Kelly girl won't leave me alone. We had problems in the past about her lies and using me for my computers/internet (to talk to some 40 year old guy), and I don't even want to be her friend. So, now, she is sitting by my friends on the bus, saying hi and doing random things to distract me. Truely, this isn't distracting, pathetic. But, when she is going to sit behind me and my girl friend(on the bus), and mess with her so I can't spend anytime with her, yeah, that is distracting.

The random dreams that have been coming pretty much reflect those actions. Cause the dreams seem to have no point, quick and sketchy, nothing too important. Distractions? I don't know, you be the judge.

Totem by Rush... great song... Rush is touring right now (released Snakes and Arrows album May 1st)

Don't let this girl distract you. Tell her politely that you are not interested. If she acts offended that you think that she wants to date you then say something like this: "I am sorry, I thought was why you have been bothering me. I would appreciate it if you would stop." In my experience Guilt is a sure way to get people to straighten their act out, and when you confront something in a civil manner it often instills guilt in the person you confront... Warning: Guild also can lead to anger, which can in turn get you into a fight (verbal or physical)

i'm no longer with that girl anymore (her reasons). Kelly is still trying to talk to me and such, but, while talking to me the other day, she got moody with me again, like she always used to do.

I can't stand this life.
