But it's not really broken.
Right?
I've been single for almost two years now, and lacking the advantages possessed by those in relationships, my dreams get really weird.
Like for example, a recent weird one involved me being in a relationship with a friend of mine who I'll refer to as "Girl A." Meanwhile, I was over at another friend, "Girl B's," house, hanging out. Girl A arrives to pick me up, and as Girl B walks me to the door, she plants three or four kisses on my cheek, then motions that she wants me to kiss her on the cheek, which I do. I ask, "so does this mean we're going out or something?" She says something that made complete sense in the dream, but means absolutely nothing in the real world. She said "My dad works for Google," which in the dream meant "no, we're just fooling my dad into thinking we are." Confused? I am.
The dream jumps to another point in time, and I see a billboard with a list of phrases that Girl B says, and then what she really means (once again, perfectly normal in the dream). I see the "Google" phrase up there, with the real meaning being "I really like you." I was a little awestruck, but I saw it as a good thing. Then I woke up.
The thing is, I woke up with a crush on Girl B.
Every time I have a dream where at any point I become romantically involved with a girl, I develop a crush on that girl. It's a major problem of mine, and one that probably cannot be cured. It's happened at least six times. I was able to talk myself out of this latest crush, but it's still slightly freaking me out, the thought of this friend of mine acting so uncharacteristic.
I think it's uncharacteristic. I mean, I could totally see her doing something like that, but I could also see her being disgusted at the thought of something like that (the major flirt part, not the me part).
I'm usually pretty good with interpreting dreams, but this one has me stumped.
Help?
And now for something completely different.
