Hello! I tried to interpret this dream myself but gave up because..well..I'm impatient and I have so much to do (I'm getting ready to leave for the weekend), so if someone could help me, that would be great!

Okay, first, let me explain some of the people:

Evan = Ex-boyfriend (though we still talk - argue a lot but friends nonetheless)

Neena = Really good friend (talk to her all the time)

Ashly = Old friend (talk to her maybe once in a month)

Patrick = Current boyfriend

Anybody else = I don't know them.

_________


It started with me being in this house..I think it was Ashly's house - it resembled it at least - and I was talking on the phone when I heard all this noise. And then I was like, "Oh yeah, it's prom night." So I got off the phone, magically put on a dress (it kinda just poofed onto me), and walked over to this other room where they were doing people's hair and such. And then these people - who resembled the secretary people in my school - went on about teeth and my documents and everything - something about needing my dental records to work on my hair - but after a few moments, Evan came over and started straightening my hair anyway.

Well, while he was doing that, I was talking to Ashly and Neena about who I was dating. They told me I was dating some guy named Dustin, and I thought about it was like, "No, I"m not. I'm dating Patrick." But, then, somehow my hair ended up long and wet, and Evan got pissed off because he didn't want to straighten it any longer. He left, saying he was going to do something, and went into the other room.

I followed him (my hair became shorter again but it was still wet) and apparently the prom was at this house because everyone was partying, except the people on the couch who were making out (I don't know any of them). Evan was over on the couch, and I walked over to him, and some girl was fondling him, and I was like, "Um, dude, you need to fix my hair." And he was like, "No, I'm not going to." Well, I became pissed off and stomped around and locked myself in this place to fix my dress - and then I went outside, became paranoid that someone was going to kill me (I had a news thing running through my dream-mind about a girl who was raped and murdered after prom during this), and crawled back towards the door (apparently I had magically fallen and couldn't use my legs anymore), all the time hoping that Patrick would hurry up and come over. I still felt a panicky and frantic that I was going to die but didn't feel relieved whenever I opened the door to supposed "safety," but after I walked into the house I woke up. Oh wait...and there were children everywhere throughout this. Just running around and giggling...it was so awkward...but that's basically it.


Oh yeah, and another little explanation (sorry, but I feel I have to): I'm a paranoid person in general...I have a tendency to worry about everything...and for the past two nights I've had dreams of Patrick not being my boyfriend, or me forgetting that he is (though I assume it's because he's been gone for 4 weeks at this new-experiences school thing and I haven't seen him [but we've talked])..like, the dream I had the other night (which I've already interpretted as me just worrying about life and everything in it), I woke up and wanted Patrick to be my boyfriend, though he already is...

Anyway, I suppose that wasn't much of an explanation about anything...but ah well. If you could interpret this thing, I'd be very happy.

Thank you!!

The only symbol that really stands out to me is - hair. You see someone styling your hair which essentially implies that you are feeling a loss of strength. The talk about teeth also points to that. It could be that you are going back in time where you felt things were a lot easier and hence Evan and the prom (events and people from your past) feature in your dream. My guess is that you're just worrying about things with Patrick and your mind is playing out scenes of when things were easier or just different.

Dreaming about being chased are farely common. I have those all the time. They stem from your feelings of anxiety in your waking life.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Well, I actually don't think that's right. I mean, probably about the anxiety thing...I'm such a worrisome person..but my time with Evan was terrible. We hated each, fought all the time...I was miserable while I was with him. With Patrick I'm actually happy...

And I never went to prom...well, I haven't gone to an actual one yet. There was junior prom but I didn't go to it. I've never even been to a dance actually...


Huh, maybe you're right about the Patrick thing though. Recent news about him has left me rather confused and somewhat worried...so that's probably right too...I just don't understand why Evan was there.

Sometimes people in our dreams are representations of different aspects or characteristics of our selves. Something we may accept or may shy away from accepting. Evan may be a representation of some part of you. Think about what he means to you and also about what keeps you two together despite the fact that you argue with each other a lot. You say you and Evan still talk to each other. You may simply be looking a your time together with Evan when things were simpler. Having Evan present in your dream may or may not have any significance.

Don't stay up thinking about it and enjoy the weekend. The significance will come to you when its meant to.

Good luck!

Perhaps so...well, you're right. I shouldn't think too much into it; it probably means nothing serious.

Thanks for your help!
