Math Class Mischief: Flirting, Laughter, and the Fear of Getting Caught
I was in a maths lesson with my high school class. I’m not behaving and keep trying not to laugh. the teachers who keep coming around are noticing and getting annoyed at me. My best friend (who I’m also in love with in real life) comes over to me and does the maths with me to make sure I stop messing about so I do not get in trouble. Then our headteacher (Mr Keary) comes in and my best friend gets so serious In fear of him. She’s like “okay we have to stop” so we switch to serious mode so we don’t get in trouble. we’re doing the math questions and trying to look very involved and focused and trying not to laugh even though its hard. After a while we both start getting more giggly and it gets harder to hide it. the teacher stops the class from doing questions and is talking to the class and explaining something about the maths. My best friend is messing about more now, and I’m the one who has to make her stop messing about and being silly so she doesn’t get in trouble as mr Keary is near us. She’s standing next to me, wobbling about and unable to stop being giggly, holding onto my arm and getting physically close to me. People are starting to notice our behaviour and when I tried to tell her to stop, she whispers “no” all giggly and cutesy and continues doing it, being all lovey dovey and close with me. I felt my heart flutter as I enjoyed it but was scared we were going to get told off for messing about in class. She cared about getting in trouble at the start but is now unbothered and refuses to stop as it’s making her happy. this dream is kind of similar to how we used to be in high school lessons. we would always be silly with each other by tickling each other or playing with each other's fingers whilst trying not to get in trouble by the teacher. i've always wondered whether she did those things in a playful best friend way or if it was a little bit flirty.
This dream may represent your inner conflicts and desires regarding your relationship with your best friend. The math class and the teacher's authority symbolize the rules and expectations of society, and the pressure to conform to them. Your behavior in the dream, wanting to laugh and not take things seriously, may represent your desire to break free and be more carefree, perhaps even in your relationship with your friend.
Your friend's seriousness in front of the headteacher symbolizes her concern for following the rules, which may reflect her approach to your relationship. However, as the dream progresses, she becomes more playful and carefree, which may reflect a desire on your part for a more romantic relationship with her.
The physical closeness and playfulness between you and your friend may represent your desire for intimacy and connection with her. However, the fear of getting in trouble in the dream may suggest that you do not want to risk damaging your friendship by pursuing a romantic relationship.
Ultimately, this dream may represent the tension between your desire for a deeper connection with your friend and your fear of the potential consequences. It may be worth exploring these feelings in real life and discussing them with your friend openly and honestly.
