Title: Was this closure?
Post by: Beach_Babe on January 18, 2016, 01:46:54 PM
Lately i've been receiving facebook messages from a fake account (fake as in no mutual friends, no picture, blank profile). I have no idea who it is, and I won't speculate but it did trigger a dream: he and I were at the same conference, and I was walking ahead of him. I was so afraid he would ignore or mock me but he didn't. Instead he seemed genuinely happy, tapped me on the shoulder and exchanged pleasantries. Then we hugged briefly. Suddenly I found myself naked and alone roaming the hallways. I found a towel to cover myself and called him; he answered and sounded exasperated. "BB I gave up, I don't want to do this anymore." Then he hung up before I could say anything.

Was this closure?

Do you feel like it gave you the closure you wanted?  How do you feel about the dream?

Likely repressed emotions trying to clear.

When something is a painful as this was, we sometimes store away some of the feeling and they bleed out into dreams.

I don't know if its closure - I'm not even sure what closures is - and I don't know what the dream is about - but I would guess its feelings you have been repressing.

Lonely: not totally, no. But it may be as much as I ever get.

Skip: Its the goodbye I hoped for in real life.
