Had nighmares last night...

..No, not the one with Dick Cheney in a clown wig and a tutu, giving orders to push the Button. Sheesh, you people...

Every once in a while now I get nightmares about my last serious relationship--the theme tends to be that the other person completely ignored me telling him over and over that I wanted out of the relationship, and acting like we were still together...and in the dream I wonder, "did I actually break up? I remember breaking up. I do, it happened...didn't it?" and I wake up clutching something pathetically.
This time it had the added twist of some unpleasant stuff about the guy I've been seeing recently; basically a rejection theme along with the previous one.
Really, Dick Cheney in a tutu would have been a relief.

I blame the Leonid shower....okay, and maybe all the milk I drank before bed.:)

Maybe it's just empathic nightmares becuase of what I'm going through? I hope I'm not causing you to have nightmares. :(

Anything's possible, I reckon...I don't think you're making me have nightmares, though...sweet Phiggy.
*Hugs you*

I think it's just a weird time of year and I've been stressing out some lately. It'll be okay.

Maybe this dream is your subconscious telling you that you still have some unresolved issues with your last boyfriend? Or, at the very least, what happened when the relationship ended?

Re:

Oh, almost certainly. And it's true, I have a lot of anger about that relationship (The guy stalked me over the phone for months after the breakup and did his level best to make me feel as bad as possible for leaving him.)

I get the dreams when I'm stressed out. I'm sure they'll fade in time.

Sounds like someone needed to meet the business end of my hockey stick...

He's lucky I didn't end up using my Mighty Midaevel Clue-Stick. (Bubba, the morning-star mace) the guy wasn't er...violent, just extremely manipulative. (Just? Like that makes it better or something.)

People like that always irritate me. They think that it's okay for them to screw around with other people's lives and, since they don't feel the hurt, that it's okay for them to do it. It's good that you've gotten away from him.

I'm glad too...Amphigorey went out with him too, back in the day,and to her eternal credit she did warn me about him...but did I listen? Nooooooooo.....:P

Your subconscious has little red horns and a trident. You must defeat it.

Re:

Yeah, but i'd just covet those little red horns....

*siigh*
Red horns!!!

It should wear off over time, I think. Meanwhile I've been meditating a bit and letting myself figure out the stuff it's telling me. (that mostly I'nm worried about people not letting me get what I need, since work's been like that lately.)
