Hello,
I'm new here and Last night I had a really bad dream and I wanted some input from someone other than myself or my husband about what the dream means or could be referring too. For future reference I have never seen the following two men either in my waking life or my dreams. Any help or insight you guys can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Last night I dreamed that I was in a strange bed. In my dream I was sleeping but woke up to find myself sleeping beside two strange men. One was very comforting and the other made me anxious. We were all naked with no covers but it wasn't sexual at all. One guy was a red head and the other man had brown or very dark hair (maybe black I don't know). I kept cuddling up closer to the red head because he made me feel safe while the other guy kept wallowing around on the bed all around us and I kept saying over and over again "Its not safe...Its not safe"

And this was not my bed. It was a strange bed and the red headed guy kept trying to soothe me but the more the naked brown haired guy bounced around the more anxious he made me.

Finally, The dream changed and those same two young men were with me in some sort of lake or creek or something. But it was very shallow so I could see the bottom and I stepped on something that cut my foot and I was bleeding in the water and the water became completely red and started rising. The brown haired guy was yelling to get to higher ground because it was flooding and somehow I felt like it was all my fault. So anyway I started climbing out of the water only to realize that both of my legs were bleeding The red Haired guy picked me and began carrying me higher while the brown haired guy kept blaming me and telling me it was all my fault.

I was crying and trying to explain something but I couldn't make them understand. Then I was in the bed again and I was laying beside them again. I was glad all of a sudden that the brown haired guy wasn't jumping around like before but when I looked at him properly he was dead and I started screaming. That was when I woke up. Screaming my head off. :-(

Any thoughts?

EDIT: I placed this in the relationships board because in my dream it felt like I had some sort of connection with these two men. I think that is what disturbs me more than the fact that I was bleeding and the the death of the dark haired man. I felt very close to them. I don't know maybe I should have put this post somewhere else but at the time it seemed the right thing to do so if the mods decide it needs to be somewhere else then so be it.

Thanks

It sounds like the dream has to do with you having to make a difficult choice, which probably involves taking a risk - the man who makes you feel safe vs. the man who makes you feel anxious and criticises (punishes) you when things go wrong.

I think the reason you feel like you have a connection with these men is that they are aspects of your animus, which is the "masculine" aspect of the unconscious that represents action and assertiveness.
