Had a dream that my parents weren’t divorced but were having affairs on each other and my mom wanted me to call her affair partner “stepdad” and he paid the rent and would turn off my room lights to be petty and sometimes would lock me in my room and I couldn’t turn the light on, and I didn’t like him. My father’s mistress on the other hand was really nice to me and super pretty and blonde and she gave me money. But instead of my parents being divorced they stayed together even though they knew they were cheating on each other, so I decided I was gonna Reverse Parent Trap them and collect evidence that they were having affairs and force them to get divorced, and I was so close to doing it but then I woke up.
This dream could be a reflection of unresolved emotions and fears about your parents' relationship and possibly your own feelings of betrayal and manipulation. The dream may symbolize a sense of powerlessness and lack of control in your own life, as well as feelings of disapproval towards certain authority figures.
The fact that your parents are cheating on each other in the dream and staying together despite knowing this could symbolize feelings of betrayal, deceit, and lack of trust in your waking life, either from your parents or from other individuals you are close to. The conflicting attitudes of the affair partners towards you could represent the different sides of yourself or different aspects of your relationships with others.
The idea of "Reverse Parent Trap" and collecting evidence to force your parents to get divorced could indicate a desire for a resolution or change in an uncomfortable or dishonest situation. This dream may be urging you to confront any unresolved issues or conflicts in your waking life and take control of your own feelings and choices.
It could also be a reminder to address any lingering feelings of resentment, anger, or confusion in your relationships with your parents or other significant people in your life. By acknowledging and processing these emotions, you may find a sense of closure and be able to move forward with a clearer understanding of yourself and your relationships.
