We are dressing up to go to a formal dance. I am really excited, but when i go to the car the doors are locked and i cannot get his attention. I notice that he appears to have been crying but he wont look at me. Then th scene shifts and he is talking to me about his truck ( a large container that houses lost boys, hes kinda like their guardian or big brother) then all of the sudden he doesn't know me and is pushing me away. He startes driving away and i chase after him and grab on to the side kf he vehicle and he pries my hands awa. At the last moment i look into his eyes i know he knows who i am and it seems like he thinks he is saving me.
Dreams can often reflect our subconscious thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Here's a possible interpretation of your dream based on the elements you've described:
Formal Dance and Excitement: The dream begins with excitement for a formal event, which can symbolize anticipation and hope for social connections, opportunities, or new experiences. This can also reflect your desire for recognition and positive experiences in your waking life.
Locked Car Doors: The locked car might symbolize feelings of restriction or barriers in your relationship. You are eager to connect, but there's something preventing you from getting closer to this person. It may also reflect your feelings of helplessness in trying to reach out when someone is emotionally distant.
Crying and Avoidance: The individual appearing upset and avoiding your gaze can suggest a conflict in your relationship. Their emotional pain might be weighing on you, and it may reflect your concern for their well-being or a recognition of unresolved issues between you.
Guardian Role: The shift to him being a guardian to lost boys can signify feelings of responsibility or protector instincts towards those who are vulnerable. This aspect might also hint at his possible emotional struggles and how you perceive him as someone who takes care of others but may neglect their own feelings.
Rejection and Pursuit: His denial of knowing you and pushing you away symbolizes feelings of rejection or misunderstanding in the relationship. Your effort to chase after him reflects your desire to maintain the connection and work through whatever is causing the distance.
Final Connection: The moment when you lock eyes may signify a moment of clarity or recognition in the relationship; there’s an unspoken understanding that you both are aware of each other's pain. His perceived intention of "saving" you could indicate a protective instinct—either his desire to shield you from pain or your perception of wanting to rescue him.
Overall, this dream may be exploring themes of connection, emotional distance, unresolved issues, and the desire for understanding in a relationship. It might be worthwhile to reflect on your feelings regarding this person and the dynamics between you, as well as any underlying emotions you may have about vulnerability, support, and recognition in your relationships.
