Hi, I just want to point out that I barely know this guy. I seriously just met him a few weeks ago and we only talk in class. We don't have each other's numbers or even have each other on facebook. I do not think of him in any way but a school friend so unless my subconscious was already thinking of him, I promise you I do not think about him all the time before bed or anything. Trust me So this dream I had was very vivid. I thought it was real because I could remember it so clearly and it did involve real aspects of my life. But then realizing what a weird scenario and setting it was in (does not exist in real life) it made sense that it was not real. I don't have a boyfriend in real life but in the dream I did and it was that guy mentioned above. For some reason he hadn't talked to me or seen me in a week but wouldn't tell me why. I ended up walking out of where I used to work (the location shut down recently in real life) and saw him giving me weird looks. He went into some restaurant beside my workplace and I was upset so I wandered past all the stores and went into a dollar store (there isn't one near my work) and started looking at some golden Chinese statues that were pretty. A guy was behind me so I start telling him "This reminds me of my boyfriend. He would like this" so the guy says "Why don't you buy it for him?" and then I went on about how I hadn't seen him in a week (in real life I haven't seen that guy in almost a week because thats when our class is) and I wouldn't know if he liked it and I started crying. The guy then said "Why don't you turn around and ask him?" I turned around and it was my boyfriend. I gave him the biggest hug and he kissed me and then we walked out and he had a motorcycle and then we drove off after he explained where he was and how he had a gift for me. It was just so strange and felt so real. I can remember almost word for word what happened and I can never remember dreams like this. I've also had other vivid dreams recently. Some about him too but I promise you I'm not thinking about him every night or whatever. I seriously just learned his name over a week ago. I'm not just denying it either, it's true. Only now I am because I had that dream. I have way too much on my brain anyways. Do you think it means something or just my brain putting parts of my life together randomly?
I think the reason that you dreamed about a guy that you barely know could be that your brain wants someone to use as a symbol, so it just picked out a random guy who wouldn't mean anything else to you. The part about him not talking to you or seeing you in a week could refer to something that you are avoiding or procrastinating about (also your brain mixing it up with the real fact that you haven't seen this guy in a week.) I think the statues represent something that is valuable to you. On the other hand, the dream could mean that you are thinking about this guy a lot unconsciously, even if you just met him.
