I really, really like him and have for a while and by the time school was out I was pretty sure he liked me back. The thing is though, is that while we did make progress in our "relationship" and we did get to know each other pretty well; because school ended so soon after we started talking, we weren't able to get too close. So, I haven't seen him since school ended, which was the end of June. I could talk try to talk him I guess but I don't want things to be awkward. My problem is that for the past week or so, every single night, no matter what my dream is, he is in it. And it's always the same thing. We walk by each other, while making eye-contact, I smile at him, but he just stares blankly. I don't understand! It's so incredibly random. Like, one night, the dream was that I was with my friends at some cottage (a random dream in general, but anyway...), we went to this restaurant and BAM the walk-by thing. Another time it was in our school. It just keeps repeating, the exact same way.I thought maybe it's because I'm worried that because we won't have talked for two months, when we go back to school, things will be awkward, but I don't know. I can't figure it out. So I guess the advice I'm seeking is from anyone who knows anything about dreams, or psychology, or who has been in a situation like this. Anything helps. Can I make it stop? I hate it. I always wake up sad lol...sounds pathetic, but it's true. Reply to this Question Share |

Dreams can be pretty complicated things but I think this one is straight as a die. I think your probably right about the worry they reflect but they may also reflect a feeling on your part that this guy is a 'missed opportunity'. I think the best thing and probably the only thing you can do to resolve is to pluck up the courage to talk to this guy. Do you have any way of contacting him before you return to school?
What suggests to me the fact that your interpretation is likely to be accurate is the expression on his face which is exactly what you fear he will be, blank and unresponsive to you. I wouldn't worry about it too much, its only natural, try and focus your mind elsewhere before you go to sleep. Good luck :)x
