I woke up on the shore of a lake at night. the moon was bright and it was pretty all around. all of a sudden, an old friend i grew apart with but used to be in love with a few years ago appeared in the lake, standing waist-high in the black water. he had no clothes on but the water covered him enough. he told me to "come into the water" but i was a bit nervous. he then said "do you want to be my baby? are you waiting to touch me? you look so good but i keep my hands till you come into the water." i walk into the lake to him. he takes my hand and puts it on his body. hes very warm even though the lake is cold. he covers his mouth with my hand but when i try to get closer to him, he takes a step back and dives into the lake. then i woke up.
This dream may reflect unresolved feelings or unfinished business with your old friend. The lake symbolizes emotions and the depths of your subconscious mind. The bright moon suggests clarity and illumination, perhaps bringing to light hidden desires or lingering emotions.
The appearance of your old friend can represent a desire for connection or rekindling of past feelings. His nakedness could symbolize vulnerability or openness, while the water covering him could signify emotional depth.
The invitation to "come into the water" could represent a call to explore your feelings or dive into your subconscious. The hesitation to join him may indicate uncertainty or apprehension about revisiting past emotions or relationships.
His question about being "your baby" and the desire to touch him may suggest a longing for intimacy or closeness. His warmth despite the cold water could signify the complexity of emotions involved.
The friend's actions of covering your mouth and then distancing himself when you try to get closer may symbolize barriers to communication or intimacy. His eventual dive into the lake could represent a retreat or escape from the situation.
Overall, this dream may be highlighting inner conflicts, desires, or unresolved feelings regarding this old relationship. It could be a reflection of your subconscious processing these emotions and urging you to address them in waking life.
