Dream

[belovedwarrior]

As you most likely know, I dream and I dream vividly. I can recall detailed plotlines complete with unforeseeable events and surprise endings. I dream anywhere from the mundane to the downright silly. Every so often a dream comes along that is so real, the only reason why I know it is not is because is does not jive with reality around me. I wakeup

Oh wow, what a dream! I can't imagine how awful that must have felt to both go through and wake from! I have dreams that move me emotionally, but nothing like that. Geez...

Bah, that was me.

I took so long to post that I logged myself out. ;) Whoops.

I'm like you, Amanda. I dream very vividly, and often my dreams leave me with the same experience you're going through: actual memories, actual emotions rooted in those memories. The dreams like this, that speak to our deeper, most unsettling fears, are especially hard.

I find it interesting that you would dream that Dan has become emotionally distant and academically remote in the dream, and that this is portrayed in your mind as something that could not be helped because you 'had to go home'. This sounds to me like echoes of another relationship you've had, and feelings I remember you sharing about it..

You know, I didn't really draw the connection because in my dream it felt completely different.. but interesting timing on your comment since Ben has just decided to distance himself from me (not becuase of him, but because of someone else). Interesting, indeed
