Hey- I had this dream last night and it is really bugging me. I still have that sick feeling about it. If any of you have any ideas of what it means....please post them. I'd REALLY appreciate it!

First you have to somewhat know about the people in the dream. Dale is an old "fling" from like four years ago. But nothing ever happened cause it turned out he was a player. But andrew has been my best friend for several years and the person I'm closest to. I'll admit that over the past year I've started to like him more then a friend. And he has admitted the same too. But we were just really close and connected. Mrs. Biddinger is Andrew's mom.
-------
It was a combination of several scenes. First one was at a hotel I work at. There were tons of people there. There were these huge stairs, that curved up. Dale was there and he had his arm around me. He forced me to sit next to him and take a picture with our faces real close together.
But I pushed him away and kept trying to run up the stairs to Andrew, but Dale was pulling me back. Andrew, in the meanwhile, was trying to run to me. But the crowds were holding him back. I don't remember what happened after that. I think it just ended that way.

We were then sitting up at the stairs and I was by him. We were teasing each other. Then eventually he had to leave and went down the stairs. I followed him and asked if he was leaving. Then Mrs. Biddinger was there, so I quickly asked her if their family was leaving. And she nodded, and said they would in thirty minutes.

Then we were outside on a big porch. I think it was me, Andrew, and Mrs. Biddinger. We were talking for awhile or something, then I walked kind of far away and then this bug bit me, then started chasing me. Mrs B and Andrew got a little worried, Andrew went over to kill it or something. It was like a praying mantis, but flew like a mosquito. It was red. Mrs. B was talking about how funny my face looked.

A big dinner was downstairs in the Flint hotel lobby. Me and Andrew were going to go get ready to leave, but we saw that and decided we should stay. Except I thought I should go up and change from my black dress into a khaki skirt. I went over to push the button for the elevator, but I couldn't remember which button to push. Some other girl, with long blonde hair, came over and pushed it for me. I thanked her saying I couldn't read. Andrew then went with this girl, changed into a suit, and sat down at the table with her. Before they sat down though, I had shown some displeasure in Andrew for staying with her and the girl came up as if to be nice, but instead shoved me hard against the desk. All the while she was smiling, then she went and sat down next to Andrew. And I felt really sad, heavy, and yucky inside. The elevator opened up and I went inside. While I was walking there, Andrew cried out or something- he apparently was disappointed that I was going and wasn't going to sit and stay with them. But I couldn't, not with that girl there.

So I got on the elevator- but it only closed halfway. The rest of the door wouldn't shut. I leaned out and raised my eyebrows and shrugged my shoulders at Andrew. Nonverbally I was asking him to come shut it. But (non-verbally again) he told me he wouldn't and was glad the door wouldn't shut. Then another guy with dark hair and kinda big came over to be nice and shut the door. And it made Andrew feel a little ashamed and bummed.

So then I'm going up the elevator, changed, and went back down. Now him and the girl are getting closer and are more intimate- and I feel really sick. I go and sit down over in the crowd by the Christmas tree. I felt very low. The Lindsay Lohan twins (even though there aren't any) were sitting at the bottom of the tree, bored with everything. I was talking to another girl, who became a quick friend, about them. Then I see Andrew and the girl go into another room next to the lobby (while their walking by, the girl looks at me with a "haHA" look and all triumphant. They go in and I start walking towards them, but they shut the door and I couldn't see in. And I never before felt so sick. My heart and stomach completely dropped to the tips of my toes. I walked back and sat down with some other while they were watching football. Somehow Andrew was the quarterback in the game, but he was still in the room with the girl. His dad was defending all his plays, but I was angry with him (andrew) and critisized his plays, even though he couldn't hear.
--------
And I simply just felt so sick. I woke up and still right now have this sick, heavy feeling. I don't know what all of this means. If ANY of you have an idea, I'd love you to tell me. Sorry it was so long!

I see a lot of pushing, taunting (people teasing you or teasing each other), and doors being shut in your face. Then Andrew's dad congradulating him on his plays (which is probably another term for "smooth moves.")

You mention at the beginning that Dale was a "player." Have you felt "played" lately? Do you think you lost out on a recent opportunity?
Feel like people aren't taking you seriously?

Through out the dream, you go along with all this shoving and rude behavior. Perhaps the dream is telling you to stick up for yourself and move on. You don't have to be "played for a sucker." :wink:
