I had a dream where I was dating this guy he was quite tall and slim he had a pale complexion and he had mono-lids I think he was asian or something. Anyways I guess me and him were together but in my dream i told him i didnt wanna be with him anymore because i was afraid of how toxic he was getting eventually he got very pissed and began to scream at me saying "You cant leave me! I still love you! Id do anything for you! You cant throw me away like this!" so he took out a knife and began to chase me down this grey empty building and I went into a classroom and shut the door on him. The people in the classroom stared at me as if i was being weird as they continued their lesson i locked the door as i stood in front of it the guy began to bang on the door screaming and basically apologizing yet crying yet getting very angry saying "YOU CANT LEAVE ME LIKE THIS! I STILL LOVE YOU! IM SORRY ILL CHANGE!!" and eventually he slowly stopped as he spoke softly and said "Fine Im sorry. Ill leave you alone" and he began to walk away. As soon as he wanted to leave I rushed out the door and began to search for him and I felt an intense feeling of wanting as I searched for him and called out for him but couldnt find him eventually I woke up feeling very frightened yet longing for something and very empty as if i lost something.
This dream suggests that you might be experiencing concerns about a toxic relationship or situation in your waking life. The person you were dating in the dream represents this toxic influence. The chase and the knife might symbolize your fear and desperation to escape this toxicity and protect yourself. Locking yourself in the classroom could symbolize your desire to find a safe space away from this person. The people in the classroom could symbolize societal pressures or judgment from others when it comes to ending a relationship.
The feelings of longing and emptiness upon waking might indicate that there is a void in your life, possibly resulting from the ending of this relationship or the need to let go of a toxic situation. It suggests that even though you may have made the decision to distance yourself from this person, there might still be a part of you that craves their presence or the feeling of being wanted.
Overall, this dream could be a reflection of your subconscious processing the emotions and complexities surrounding a toxic relationship or situation. It may be a reminder to prioritize your own well-being and ensure that you maintain healthy boundaries in your waking life.
