I keep having dreams like this, and it's not every night, but it's often enough where it has me curious.

Every so often, I dream about a man who wants to either date me or have sex with me, and I turn him away every time. After turning him down, he pursues me like a crazed stalker, and sometimes I'm very strong in my dreams and put my foot down and get angry with him, telling him to leave me alone, and then he backs down. Other times, I'm spending the whole dream trying to elude him, and various obstacles get in my way. As he pursues me, he is no longer just "desperate" but he is aggressive and violent, and I know that he will most definitely rape me. Sometimes he's even carrying a weapon.

I have a feeling that these men represent something about my personality that I'm trying to avoid, maybe because I hate it. I've never had the man actually catch up with me after I flee, but while fleeing, I run into various crazy obstacles that I have to work my way around.

I don't have any problems with my current boyfriend, he's the complete opposite of the men in these dreams, so I know it's not about him.

Every man is different in appearance than the last, as well. No two men look the same. They are all unique in looks.

I've been having these for my entire life, as long as I can remember, so they aren't recent.
