Dream

At an informal social gathering. Tom Cruise the actors there. My wife Jackie is too. She goes off for a moment and Cruise and are face to face. I comment on his shirt as a great. Color of black for him with a little grey white in it. His hair is black. it. He looks at me quizzically. I let him know I’m straight even though that is something he says. That I have a takent for colors of clothes etc. I show him the picture if Jackie on her moms table. He’s impressed. I get ready to share that revised to go shopping together and I’d point out my views of what worked as an exercise in tantric energies. I’d then buy her the clothing. It was a celebration of her radiance. And great fun. I retained from sharing that. Upon waking I do have a mild sense that my biological father whom I barely knew and Jeff me at two years old had that kind of black hair the Cruise figured. But I did not have a sense that in the dream.

Father
Gym
Kissing

Dream

I was at a huge gym with my father. We are both passionate about self improvement. Then the gym instructor and personal role model was there. He was a man who had been through a lot in life and overcame many challenges and rose to be one of the strongest men you could ever meet. I was excited that he was hosting a workout challenge at our gym. I was eager to begin. The challenges started and he gave us all instructions. He gave me instructions but I couldn’t hear him and asked him to repeat himself. He told me to come closer to him so I could hear him and I did, I walked all the way to the room he was in. Then he told me very close up, he talked into my ear and he was touching my face with his. I agreed to the task but he wasn’t interested in giving me a workout challenge. He grabbed me by the wastes and started passionately kissing me. I was taken back and shock, I didn’t expect him to be romantically attracted to me. He kept kissing me and I was trying to get him to stop. He tackled me to the ground with his vigorous kissing and I was trying to get him off me. I finally was able to tell him to stop. And he finally did. I told him that I was way younger than him and that it was inappropriate. He seemed to regret it. A couple women watching seemed concerned for me from what just transpired. After I asked one of the women for advice about how to predict if a man likes you, since I can rarely predict it. A woman gave me a questionare that cost a dollar and told me it would help me understand. I went to my father who seemed in his own thoughts. I tried to tell him what had happened but he seemed elusive. The gym challenge was already over by then and I missed the whole thing. My dad and I left.

Ex
Father
House
Toilet
People
Couch

Dream

I had a dream that my father was trying to get rid of an old pull-out couch. It was dingy and kind of reminded me of my grandmothers old couch. It looked like it had been in a dump or something though. Then we went to a friend of mines house and we were talking and I had to go to the bathroom. So I went up stairs to the bathroom in their bedroom and then I decided to go to the downstairs bathroom because it felt like I was invading their privacy walking through their room. So I went to the bathroom down stairs and then people started walking in while I was sitting on the toilet. First it was my ex’s mom, saying she was here to look at my dads couch, then a bunch more of familiar faces that kept walking in. One of the faces was my ex, my eldest child’s father. I was so embarrassed but couldn’t get up and get out because at this point the bathroom was full of people. Then my dad came in and I started yelling at him and how selfish he was for having these people come in the bathroom knowing I was there just for his stupid couch. Then I started thinking that maybe it was my fault because I shouldn’t just went to the bathroom in the bedroom for privacy.

dream-about-haunted-house-and-bunker
Blood
Haunted house
Bones
Car
Father
Dog

Dream

The house we bought was haunted, and it was trying to kill us every chance it got. I was almost sucked into a ceiling fan, but we had family over, thankfully. My uncle threatened the spirits with an exorcism and everything stopped on a dime, then returned back to normal for a while. My dad's car that was in the yard and hadn't been used in years came back to life with no driver in it. It tried to run me over but I jumped and crash landed into the passenger seat. Then it brought me to my dad's bunker in a courtyard. In the dream, I remember my dad bringing me here as a child, and me not liking it at all. It had fish line wire everywhere and it was extremely dangerous for an adult, let alone a child, to be in. It had crushed cars everywhere and sharp metal when I was a kid. I climbed down into the bunker, and it was empty, besides the old fishing wire that ran across the floor. The walls, ceiling, and floor was stained in a dull yellow/orange/red, which I guessed was old blood and rust. It was a huge wide open bunker, and it moved like it was a cargo crate on a ship, it was nauseating to stand. I spoke out loud to no one, hoping my dad would hear in the afterlife, "Hey, I know I didn't like the courtyard much, but I'm happy you did, and I'm happy I found it again." And my dad responded in my head, but with an echo that sounded like he was talking in the wide open bunker "Yeah, I know, wasn't the best space for a kid, huh?". I laughed and said "yeah, but I actually was searching for it for a while. I remember that you had this but just could NOT find where, you know?" There was no answer from my dad. As I was climbing out of a different exit that led to an old house, I opened the ceiling latch to have bones fall down into the bunker. My dad's disembodied voice said "oh, must've been the dog". -- To clarify, my dad is not dead in real life, does not have a dog, and works as a mechanic.

School

Woman

Dream

The black library I was in a black library on the attic on top of a Victorian house, the library have a lot of bookshelf with old fancy books, and the library was very luxurious and elegant. I remember there was a 7 feet tall women trying to kill me, but she Dissapeared and I ended up in this attic. I heard sounds coming downstairs, I cautiously checked the stairs and there was none, there was also a dark saferoom on the left that can only be entered by crawling because the entrance is really small. I checked the room and there was really nothing special, just a few pens, then I went to one of the library shelves and met my friend Qhaiz, who is searching for Japanese books. Qhaiz told me that there are a comfy place to hangout and there is also a lot of people there, I went to the place, it had short fences to indicate sections of the comfort place, in every section was a comfy pillow, there was also desks with computers that we could play with, I played with Qhaiz and my other friends there too. My dad came to the attic to pick me up to go home, I need to obey my father, my father asked where is my backpack, I was confused, but then my backpack suddenly appeared at the wall, and I pointed at the appeared backpack, so I said my goodbyes, and went home with my father. I reached home and watched some videos with my phone, in the afternoon, there was a report that I need to go to school, I was ready to go, but my father is super slow and doesn't care about my schedules, I complained my father to my mother, it didn't really work and I was late 3 hours to school because of father.
