I was shot in some kind of attack, and although it was painful, it wasn’t critical, more of a flesh wound. People were able to get the gun from the gunman and I was then at some time of reunion where I was looking for my long lost love, who I am currently in an emotional affair with. As soon as I saw him, I kissed him over and over, not caring who saw or what the consequences were.
Dreams involving violence, such as being shot, can often symbolize feelings of vulnerability or a sense of being attacked in some aspect of your life. Since you mentioned that it was a flesh wound rather than a critical injury, this might suggest that the pain you are experiencing is significant but not devastating—perhaps related to an emotional struggle or a conflict in your waking life.
The transition to a reunion with your long-lost love indicates a desire for connection and intimacy. Kissing him passionately, despite the potential consequences, suggests a longing for freedom and authenticity in expressing your feelings. This part of the dream could reflect a sense of urgency or the need to embrace your desires fully, even if they come with risks.
Overall, this dream may be highlighting a tension between your emotional experiences—feeling wounded yet still yearning for love and intimacy, particularly in the context of your current emotional affair. It could signify a clash between societal expectations or personal values and your genuine feelings for this person. Consider reflecting on how these themes manifest in your waking life and whether there are unresolved issues that need to be addressed.
