Your dream may be related to some kind of struggle or conflict you are experiencing in your waking life. The monsters and invasion can represent a fear of outside influences that are beyond your control, or people or situations that you perceive as threatening. Being punished for attempted escapes suggests you may feel trapped in your current situation and are struggling to break free.
The realization that you had been in this situation before may indicate that you feel stuck in a repetitive cycle in your life, or that you are facing similar challenges and feeling powerless to change them. The safe house could represent a place of refuge or a sense of safety, while the familiar people and storylines from previous dreams may represent patterns that you have seen before.
Meeting the man you liked better than before may suggest that you are reevaluating your relationships or desires, and that your feelings towards someone may have changed over time. The attack on the safe house and the ensuing battle may represent a struggle to maintain a sense of security and control in the face of external pressures.
Overall, the dream may be indicating a need to confront difficult situations in your waking life and find ways to overcome them, even if you feel powerless at times. It may also suggest a need to break free from repetitive patterns and find new ways of approaching challenges or relationships.
