Dream About Stalking And Self Defense 2
Analyze my dream

This dream was about

I had a nightmare. It started off with me at work. I was talking to my crush and he admitted that he had feelings for me. Then he went to lunch, and came back and let me know I can go now that he’s back. I went to lunch and it was night time. I went to some restaurant to pick up food and realized I was being followed back to my car. I kept calm, took a sip of my drink to seem unsuspecting and kept pace to my car. Luckily I was able to get in and lock the doors before he tried to open it. He was a large white man on the heavier side with either brown or black hair. He said that he was going to find me because he had pictures of my car and license plate. I tried to take a picture of him but he walked off. I walked back into the restaurant to let them know the situation. They were able to keep him there while I drove off. In this nightmare I know that I had gone to the police a few times about him stalking me and they said they weren’t able to do anything. So instead of trying to call again, I drove to my old apartment of 7 years to throw him off my trail and called my mom. Then I drove to where me and my mom live now. I can’t quite remember the details but my mom ended up fighting him and I threw a plate on him. I ran back to grab a knife while my mom kept fighting him. Then he tried to find me and that’s when I stabbed him multiple times. I think a total of 7 or 8. I tried to stab him in the chest but the knife wouldn’t go through. I remember being scared of hearing the crunching sound if it did. He didn’t bleed but it did hurt him, enough for him to back off a bit. My mom came back in to where I was with him in the kitchen ready to fight him again if needed. Then I told Siri to call the police. After that he sat down in defeat on the couch and waited while I stayed on the phone with the police. At the end, a blonde woman came in and just casually walked to the back where our rooms were. Realizing she wasn’t police who had come to help, I gave my mom a look and went back toward the rooms ready to use my knife again. Then I woke up. I remember a few other details but not sure where it fits in the story: I had met my crush’s mom and sister somehow. They told me something regarding him liking me. I also remember my crush texting me to make sure I was okay because by that time it had been well past the amount of time we get for lunch, but I couldn’t call or text him back while dealing with my stalker

Anaya, let's delve into your nightmare. The dream begins with an interaction with your crush at work where he admits his feelings for you. This could symbolize a desire for validation and acknowledgment in your waking life, especially in the realm of relationships. The transition to lunch and it suddenly being nighttime reflects a shift from a hopeful situation to one filled with fear and uncertainty. The act of being followed by a large man and your subsequent fear indicates a deep-seated anxiety, possibly related to past traumatic experiences or a feeling of being constantly under threat. Your calm demeanor while being followed and your strategic actions to stay safe showcase your resilience and ability to think clearly even in distressing situations. However, the stalker's persistence and the police's inability to help signify a sense of helplessness and frustration in your waking life, perhaps related to feeling unsupported by authoritative figures or systems. Driving to your old apartment could represent a retreat to familiar grounds or a longing for past security, while the involvement of your mom in fighting off the stalker highlights your reliance on familial support during crises. The act of stabbing the stalker multiple times reflects a desperate attempt to regain control and protect yourself, which is a powerful expression of your inner strength and determination. The fear of the 'crunching sound' might indicate a fear of the repercussions of taking drastic actions, both physically and emotionally. The appearance of the blonde woman at the end, who is not the police, adds another layer of distrust and uncertainty, as if even seemingly benign figures in your dream can't be trusted. Your readiness to defend yourself again shows a continuous state of alertness and preparedness to face threats. The side details about your crush's mom and sister, as well as his concerned text, suggest that amidst the chaos, there's a part of your life seeking connection and reassurance. Your inability to respond to him due to dealing with the stalker could symbolize how current stresses and fears are hindering you from engaging fully in positive aspects of your life. Anaya, this dream is a rich tapestry of your current emotional landscape, intertwining your desires for connection with your fears and past traumas. It's essential to explore these feelings further to understand how they are impacting your daily life and relationships.
