I had a really strange dream last night- well it seemed kind of strange. There's this girl who I went to high school with and I really didn't like her at all. She was incredibly annoying, clingy and enjoyed talking only about herself and believes she is the biggest Breaking Bad fan on the planet. Haha no. Anyway, in my dream I was in some unrecognizable place and this girl (I'll call her J) was there and totally into me. She kept trying to bring me back to her room or something and was feeling me up and to kissing me. It's not that I didn't like it but I felt sort of strange that J was acting this way because I knew subconsciously that I really didn't like her. I also wasn't saying stop. I have never thought I was bisexual or anything of the sort, always figured I liked boys.
So the dream continued and J kept persistently trying to win me over. I never actually went to the mysterious room with her but when I woke up in the morning I felt kind of weird because I kind of wanted to know what would have happened lol. I had a dream a couple days earlier that involved a girl but we were only kissing and I don't even know who she was or really remember her face and it wasn't a huge factor in the dream. There have been times where I've kissed my girlfriends but only because were completely hammered/high but I'm not a regular with that sort of lifestyle so it seemed like the kind of thing friends just two when they're acting stupid. SO, I'm really curious as to my strange, lesbo-fantasy dream(s) actually meaning anything???

PS- nothing against people interested in same sex relationships, I'm just a little confused about myself.

- I wouldn't worry about the dreams. I've also had a few dreams where I've done... things with girls, but I know I'm completely into guys. I kissed a girl once because it was a dare, but I hated it.

No they don't. I have very sick dreams all the time, and were they 'true' I'd be in prison for life.

I think dreams are our subconscious' way of trying to tell us something or the way we subconsciously deal with how we're feeling about something. They can't always be taken at face value. I've had really strange, frightening almost, dreams the past few nights, but I know it's only because I'm getting ready to sell my house and move to a new city and even though in my waking hours I'm excited about it, I must be subconsciously fearing the change.

Your dream might not even be about the girl at all. It could be about your subconscious dealing with you now liking something that you used to hate (an activity, a food, etc.) and the girl's image is the first thing your mind dug up as a image of something you used to dislike. I'm no professional or anything, it could mean that or it could mean that maybe you really are into girls or bi. There's nothing at all wrong with it if you are.

Hell, my grandfather on my mom's side, he used to have this book that listed different things like animals, colors, etc. and it told what they meant if you dreamed about them. It also had numbers associated with each thing and every day, if he'd dreamt of something the night before he'd play those numbers in the lottery. I think he lost more times than he won, but he totally believed in it. Just goes to show you, that no one person has the answers. Dreams could mean different things for different people.

The whole "dreams" and "repressed subconscious" are very Freudian terms. In modern psychology, Freud has had little actual impact... the theory just became well-known because of the critical reception. Maybe your dream was urging you to reconcile with J? In any case, wondering about your sexuality in response to the dream is really reasonable. The "meaning of dreams" is simply any way you choose to interpret them. :)

Well dreams do come from our subconsciousness, but it's far too complicated for us to really understand where are those things coming from. Things get abstracted and mixed up with different memories, desires, feelings, fears or just irrelevant thoughts. It's also common that in dreams we act and feel differently as we would in real life. Sometimes I wake up am I'm like "what the hell..that wasn't really me <.<".

I'd like to know a little bit more about this, myself. When I was in high school I'd have a couple of these sorts of dreams about close friends of the same sex. I figured they were just stupid dreams; later on, when I realized that I was gay, things started to make more sense.

But at the same time, I'm pretty sure that people who identify as straight still have these sorts of dreams sometimes. (And I've had at least one about a member of the opposite sex even after I came out of the closet!) Like HiddenNymph said, it shows that you're thinking about it subconsciously. It might mean more than that; it might not.

The way I've learned to interpret dreams is more about structure than content, like how stress dreams reflect stress in life but can be super weird and instead of "I have 4 deadlines coming up and no time" it turns into "why can't I find the stairs" or something else completely irrelevant. But it's about feeling overwhelmed and like you can't accomplish a task, regardless of what that task is.

This one sounds like it was cautiously embracing things you're not normally on board with, both being with girls and J as a person. So it might reflect something else that's on your mind that you're kind of considering changing your position on. Or not turning her down could be something about guilt for disliking someone, or about being forced to put up with someone you dislike to spare somebody's feelings. I dunno, I'm not an expert and I don't really believe in direct dream reading, but I know they come from life on some bizarre subconscious level.

In general I don't think all hookup dreams are literal, I'm sure I've had the occasional one featuring some dude even though that's not my thing. I think it's just a very visceral human way for dreams to manifest something less concrete, plus an innate curiosity about sex and the unknown.
