This doesn't happen with every dream but I would say it happens about 50% of the time. I am surrounded by people and even though they're not staring at me and I fit in relatively well, I don't know most of them. I feel content being there and I like that I am around people and I guess in the dream I am sometimes wanting a connection but I'm sometimes wanting to be left alone
The dream suggests that you have a desire for social interaction and connection but also value your own personal space. The fact that you feel content and relatively comfortable in the presence of others indicates a positive attitude towards socializing. However, the conflicting feelings of wanting both connection and solitude suggest that you may be experiencing some inner conflict or ambivalence when it comes to your social life. It's possible that you may crave meaningful connections with others, but at the same time, you appreciate and prioritize your own personal boundaries and alone time. This dream may reflect a need to find a balance between socializing and taking time for yourself.
