Strange Dream

A person I’ve known from my childhood was there too at 10 years old. I didn’t bully them, but I did mess around and tease them because I didn’t know how to handle feelings of love and affection when I was a child. But in my dream, I was very aggressive and they where the same nature. Aggressive and blunt. 

It was very strange because I don’t feel that we were both this way in our childhood. It was like we were enemies, not rivals.

We were rehearsing to get parts in a play. They already got a lead role and there were two lead roles. (I don’t know what kinda play this is. Some kinda romance play?) I tried out for it and failed. Later, I tried again and passed. 

Next thing I knew, me, them, and a group of people (I’m guessing it’s the selected cast members) sat in a circle waiting for a microphone to introduce ourselves. I sat next to my childhood crush waiting for the microphone. We were just really aggressive towards each other. (It made no sense to me why we were acting this way. But that was my dream I guess. I think I still had feelings for them in the dream, because I tried hard for that lead role. 

When my turn was coming up next, I saw my “crush” kissing someone else. I wasn’t dating them or anything, but the sense of betrayal overwhelmed me. Afterwards they gave me this evil smirk as if he were antagonizing me. 

I woke up. 

This was one of the strangest dreams I’ve had and I’ll do some research on the symbolism of the dream and interpret the meaning of it in my own way. I feel like there are some negative emotions and fear. In reality, during my childhood, I was never truly mean to this person and they weren’t mean to me. We were, how they described it, nemeses. 

I won’t take this dream too seriously though. I feel like it’s just a reflection of some negative emotions.
