You're lucky you got a good friend, why not try to go out with him more often? Spend more time with him and see what you two can do?
As someone struggling with those feelings often, I think that what triggers those memories and wishes of being together with her again, is being in a rut. Try to get to a better place to yourself, find yourself more comfortable, meet new people. It will all play out accordingly.
If she wants to talk things out, then let her. If you want to talk to her, go ahead. If she doesn't want to talk things out, you'll need to reach to that closure on your own

Dreamed about driving behind a car that had two motorcycles on the back, with the front wheel touching the street. Two people were riding on them with their backs against the direction they were going. Then the car hit a large bump and both got catapulted into the air and crashed into the railing. One of them survived badly injured.

Best friend went to army and we lost contact. Had a silly dream where I was serving as well and entirety of some other allied military base came over to our base with a horde of village girls because one of those girls was getting married to some guy from our base. Commander of the other military base staged the marriage to assassinate our commander with an explosion. I noticed something wasn't right and jumped out before the building exploded, caught up with commander of the other base, knocked him down and we kicked him to death with our base's garrison. Rest of the dream was a political play because all command staff was dead and the other party couldn't leave our base for some reason, we weren't openly hostile to each other but it was apparent that both groups were plotting against each other out of caution. At some point I was done with us failing to uncover their plots or make a plan ourselves, so I grabbed an axe and bursted into a room where our and the enemy party were discussing something and started attacking a man three heads taller than me in the chest. He looked like Mike from Breaking Bad, but was much bigger, beefier and wider. He reminded me of Armstrong from Metal Gear Revengeance. Mike was unharmed after my attacks and looked down at me. I looked at my axe and only now noticed it was rusty and dull. Before Mike could punch me into the ground someone from my base jumped and kicked him in the head, yelling some kind of war cry and my allies in the group started attacking as well. We took Mike down and rest of the group had to retreat due to being outnumbered. After that we had a meeting where I was scolded for my lack of progress in gaining the upper hand on the enemy and was laid down from acting on my own. Position of leader was given to a short bald chinese man with a nickname "Chinaman". My memories of the dream after that are blurry, but I know it ended with me saving the girl from the enemy base and establishing peace with the act. I asked her if she'd like to stay with me or go back to her base and she laughed at me before going back. I spent rest of the dream watching sunset from roof of one of the buildings.
At early point of the dream, before the explosion, I found said friend's SIM card and put it into my phone. Later, his brother was calling, but I didn't accept the call because it felt rude to take calls meant for my friend and I was going to just give back that SIM card to him when I find him.
He used to have a brother IRL, but he died by suicide many years ago.

Had a nightmare that lasted for what felt like hours. I was sitting behind my PC, noticed a shadowy figure walking to my door and starting to unlock it from outside. I jumped towards my door, leaned on it with my shoulder and tried to hold the lock still. The figure kept tried to push the door open and I kept holding it shut, but whenever I tried to scream for someone to get help my mouth would just exhale air with no sound. Then I woke up, saw the figure walking to the door, jumped out of my bed and started holding it again, same story. Then again with the PC. First thing I did when I woke up for real was check my lock, what a stressful dream.

Lisa Becomes a Time Lord.
By M C
I can't remember the name.
Lisa Simpson becomes a time lord, and transcends the concept of time. She is able to exist in the past, present, and future. I recall seeing a room with an ice floor with walls and many hallways. Then, I see a lot of typical psychedelic spiel. Lots of colors and patterns constantly moving. Then, Lisa is in a room with a peer practicing piano. The peer is a bit annoyed at being disrupted. I think at this time, Lisa joined a group with similar power or something. Finally, Lisa is killed and Homer avenges her death. He's on top of the plant with Lenny nearby. Below is Mr. Burns and Mr. Smithers. They say they won't be able to open up this metal box that they'll use to celebrate, but someone takes out a crowbar-looking thing and the guys cheer. Finally, on the ground with a sunset, Chalmers tells Skinner(?) that his job is a lonely one. You have power, money, houses (literally said), but you basically forsake having any real friends or partners. The episode closes out with Homer going into the box, which on the inside is vast and filled with a mysterious yellow goop on all of the insides.
M C is someone who's made a few dreams of mine already, and in the commentary, that being, the people in my head in my dream, have said they've liked a few of his works. Who is he? I forgot.
That was one of like, three of four dreams. I can barely remember them now. It's been like, almost two hours since I awoke. They were probably just as weird. RIP Lisa Simpson.

I founded my own martial arts dojo and got a nickname, that was a pun on hello kitty. After the training session I drove to the edge of a forest. It was raining and I went into the lush green woods. A short climb lead me to something like a small shrine. It had a pitched roof and the wood looked almost black in the rain. Next to it there was a plant with a long stem and round leaves the size of a foot on alternating sides. I took a look over my shoulder to check if someone had followed me and bent the plant down to somehow open the entrance to my secret home.
Then my alarm promptly ended the journey.

I appeared in some sort of cozy home "escape room" with my friends, solving some primitive puzzles and at the end being asked to cross a river without touching it and with no equipment at all.
After joining some pieces of wood together with a wire I attempted to walk the plank across but the whole concoction sunk along with me, leaving the presenter to burst in laughter.
I appear in some sort of cozy home "escape room" alone. Since I already know all the puzzles, I follow the step by step but then I notice that there are some men in radiant green uniforms welding a cube together. I ask them whether I could pass but they apologise and say that the way is closed.
After searching the whole basement area in panic I stumble upon a small kitchen with a doll dressed up as a gothic version of Nanny from Totoro inside. I follow her into a mossy dark green aquarium of sorts with a small steep path down at the left and an open cave opening leading to light and even more moss and yellow flowers on the right.
After obviously choosing the steep path into the abyss I get into a tunnel where a weird pixelated font flashes before my eyes telling me:
"You cannot pass
you need 10 🪙 to pass."
The next thing I remember is relaxing somewhere at a meadow working on a magical ring of healing when the grandma appears behind me and drops me an amulet with a dark bead inside. Before picking it up a popup appears in clear English: "The one who wears this shall be forever cursed with death." Noticing that I grab the amulet with a pair of sticks and throw it at the grandma. The grandma suddenly disappears, leaving only behind her clothing with popups levitating over it:
"Lucy's armour. May it protect the wearer from all illness and curse. With love, Maria~"

I was at the grocery store with Ragnvaldr from Fear and Hunger, we were buying a ton of food, but the shop worked in a peculiar way - you go to shelves with photos of food, pick up cards with image and name of product you want to buy, then later give them to the cashier and they'll bring that food from the back. We gathered a few handfuls of cards and were waiting in line, but that tall rabbit from Amazing Digital Circus and his random friend cut us in line.
I said something like "Yo, friend, I don't remember you standing here before" and he looked in the other direction, acting like he doesn't hear me. I got angry and thrown him onto over my hip and onto the floor, but in the act all the grocery cards I prepared fell out and splattered all across the room, that made me even angrier, so when he stood up I thrown him down again and started putting him in leg and arm locks. When I let him go people in line and the cashier told me that it's not that big of a deal, I don't have THAT many cards.
I go "OH YEAH?! WHAT'S THAT THEN" and start showing them random cards I pick up from the floor, they have pictures of a character from some story and their name, cashier and others help me understand who those characters are and sort them into categories.
Then I pick up a weird card, character description is just "?!!", the picture is just some random pink mess and the name is Niiksi-11. I ask in irritated tone "The hell is Niiksi-11?" and everyone starts looking at each other with confused looks. Cashier asks me "What's Niiksi-11?", I show him the card, he screams and I lose consciousness.
When I woke up I was lying on the floor of that same shop, but lights were out and people were all crowding together and looking at me with terrified expressions on their faces. I looked around in confusion and one of scared customers whispered "Paradox…", I asked him "What paradox?", some kind of explosion occurs and I lost consciousness again.
When I woke up again I was on the floor in some kind of cellar/bunker, only ~half of customers were with me and Ragnvaldr explained that they already called the rescue company that takes it's fee by taking all rescued people as slaves. We had a console and watched broadcast and messages stating ship's arrival and our last chance to recall the rescue request. We did not do that and the console started showing logs of battle between the rescue ship and Entity 8. In the end, the ship defeated Entity 8 and Ragnvaldr told me it's not a bad fate to be enslaved by this company because they will just enlist us in their army to fight against similar creatures.
From my feeling, when people were afraid of me in the shop I was both the Entity and myself at the same time, but when I spoke we separated.

No.17861
>>17860Me again, I guess I was thinking about that dream, and how I'd explain it to someone.
I realised to explain the feeling fully, I needed to explain a little about someone in it, and in exploring that I realised it was a feeling I'd carried with me more than half my life, and never mentioned.
So here you go rolls, the rambling secrets of an insufferable fool.
We met in the first year of high school, which where I'm from means around 14 years old.
We grew to be pretty good friends, and in time I developed pretty strong feelings for her. I didn't think she was interested, and I valued the friendship, so I kept it to myself.
Over time we drifted apart, took different paths in life.
She ended up dating an exceptionally dull classmate, at the time it was a bitter feeling, but I moved on.
Through talking out those feelings, and some similar ones in return I ended up very close to her then best friend, now one of my closest friends.
We both moved away to study, and drifted further still. We met up a few times after that, but she wasn't the person I once knew.
The last time we spoke she was utterly preoccupied with money, and virtue signalling to her fancy new friends. The dull classmate had dumped her, and she was now dating a guy with very wealthy parents, and who was absolutely smitten with her, but had all the personality of a damp paper towel. She was telling me how great everything was going, but it felt so forced, so unnatural.
I'd been going through a bit of a low patch myself, and I sort of expected the meet up to bring back some pangs of youthful yearning, of tragic unrequited love.
But instead it was just sad. To see the wonderful little weirdo I used to know leading a life I know she would have once found abhorrent. Aspiring to things I don't think she really wanted, and settling for easy conveniences over following her passions.
No.17862
>>17861Sometimes I wonder, what if we had got together all those years ago? I doubt it would have lasted, but perhaps it would have set her down a different path. Perhaps could have held on to the wonder and beauty she used to see in the world, and made peace with who she was, instead of reshaping herself to another's mould.
But back then I didn't really know what was coming, and the suspicions I had I didn't really credit.
I'd have been going against what I thought was best for her then in persuit of my own teenage horniness.
And if things had gone my way from the start, might I have ended up the same way? For sure my experience back then shaped who I am today.
It's all very presumptuous of course. I've no good reason to believe I know what's best for anyone. But what I wouldn't give to find out what might have been.
In recent years I've come to realise she's probably pretty autistic and didn't really know how to make sense of her feelings and others advances back then.
The life she was living when we last met was perhaps a mask she adopted to fit in with the people she saw as successful.
I hope it's not that simple, I'd much rather believe she really is happy with what she's got. But it's hard to believe…
And of course, that was years ago too. Perhaps she has moved on, and found herself. That would be the best outcome.
That's kind of what the dream was about. It came to me a few years after that last meeting.
There has been some kind of apocalyptic event, I don't know what exactly, but there was noone around but the two of us.
We were working on a farm, planting potatoes and digging channels for irrigation. It was hard work, the sun was fiercely hot, she was complaining constantly and I was finding it harder and harder to put up with.
Somehow we made it through the day without screaming at each other, she asked me what next, I shrugged and wandered off. We found ourselves on the roof of a big warehouse, looking out over the work we'd done as the sun began to set. Just kicking back and taking it all in. After a what felt like forever, I turned towards her. She was still looking out at the sky, but with little smile, and a light in her eyes like she'd finally realised what it was all about. That wonderful satisfaction of a job well done.
And that's where it ends, that feeling, the feeling of sharing that feeling, of finding it in someone you least expected, of finding out someone you thought was gone was there all along.
Absolute bliss. It gets me every time, stronger than any real memory I can think of.
Of course, now it's outside my head it reads less wonderful, and more narcissistic fantasy…
Am I just projecting my own feelings into a memory of her? Probably.
But I think it's worse if it's true, if she really is faking a life she doesn't believe in and I'm just leaving her to it.
I should get in touch and see how she's doing.
I don't know if she'll appreciate it, but I'd rather be a well meaning embarrassment than a indifferent memory.

The last dream I can remember started with my next door neighbour climbing in my bedroom window to ask me where I got my alarm clock because he really liked the sound.

For some reason, I always tend to dream about being in corridors inside big houses, mansions, hotels, corporate buildings and such. They feel a bit "liminal" at times, especially if it's about old places. Sometimes I dream about recurrent places that only exist there, and everytime I dream about them they remain the same, the only thing that changes is the context of the dream.
I feel those dreams are a reflection of how my subconscious perceives my life, as if most of the charm and bright it had is not there anymore… I used to have very colorful and epic dreams before, dreams that used to make me feel hopeful and inspired, now if I happen to have one of those big dreams they tend to be about catastrophes, chaos or lovecraft-like phenomenons…
Sometimes I feel they just reflect how narrowed my worldview has become, as it's also a feeling I have towards the internet, where everything feels just too sterile, artificial and banal. What happened? When did everything turned so empty?
In some way, that's why I'm here, with hopes of finding that charm once again.

>>20503Ah, the booby sucking dream! People can misinterpret their emotional state on similar physical contexts, ex.: You feel flushed going out on a date, which you think is due to attraction, but going home you become queasy so that really you discover being flushed was due to sickness. To this extent, what you might consider an inherently salacious dream was not the cause of itself; but in actual fact it was the needing to urinate. You had a boner while you were dreaming, and for men the urgent need to pee can sometimes correspond with a hard-on. What can be said is that it says nothing about your sexuality or luckiness; what those boobs were filled with was urine, so you’d also find yourself festering in wet sheets if one happened to drip or pop.

I had a bunch of lovely dreams this night. This is in no particular order.
I was playing a new mario game, and I FINALLY 100%'d it, and Rosalina opened up a portal that looked like it was going to be a tribute to Mario Sunshine. I was so excited! I go in and it starts with, "dear mario…" you know that rest. It was all in the regular n64 graphics. There was the regular castle, but on the side was a giant dark cave. Mario was drawn to this cave, and I could feel some kind of evil presence in it, so I noped the fuck out of there before I went in there.
Another dream was a pretty simple one. I was in the bonus room listening to scary stories, and it was so scary that I had closed my eyes the entire time. I'm pretty sure it was actually scary, but I really just kept those eyes close. Also, a massive hurricane was going to hit, so everyone (including my family) were taking their dogs on a walk. There were a few dogs that got loose, though.
I had a dream where I decided to get naked at a fair and I had to avoid this girl and get my clothes back on. Weird dream tbh.
Finally, the most wonderous dream was that I was in this black void tyoe of room. It was like an apartment where you could see the kitchen and living room together. My Mom and Dad were there, but they really weren't my Mom and Dad. They were like, demons or void demons with unnatural smiles. I could tell they loved this because they had me where they wanted me. I kept asking them, "is this hell?", and I finally got the answer that, no, this wasn't hell, it was something different. My mother was leaning on me and I could feel a something like a tentacle on my chest. It was like someone who's gotten really close to you and is basically communicating that, again, "I got you". I ask them if they're my parents, and they said yes. In another room, I saw someone get torn in half by, funny enough, cream the rabbit, who then started counting his organs on the ground and eating them. I can't remember the entire dream, but that was the thick of it. It was like I was sent here for some kind of evil that I had done. I was sure to be tortured because I swear I saw or heard someone getting tortured already.
I kept waking up throughout the night.

I had a few dreams, but I won't go into them much except for the last ones. First one, I was in South Korea in a huge tunnel with other people on a conveyor ramp that's made for people. Think about the ones in the airport. It leads to a few place like this cute little shop. I finally go for lunch for some Baozi and I manage to pick up the buns with a chopstick perfectly and eat it without spilling the juices inside. I've never even eaten Baozi buns and I suck with chopsticks.
Second dreams. I was playing Minecraft on a boat… It was a modded playthrough, and I was in survival mode. So, to get the boat to stop, I needed to stop the engine by removing the soul sand that's placed near the engine that makes it move. I did that, and I'm in the water. Then, when I'm in the water, an egg appears in the water. An egg that looked like a giant ender dragon egg. When it hatched, I'm pretty sure there was a message saying, "get back in the boat!" It was too late, and I believe it was called, "The Hunger"(?) dragged my from the boat into the water and sent me THERE. I only figured out later what it looked like later when I was in creative mode. I remember it was black, for one. I think it looked like a squid or something like that. I never got a good look before I bolted. But I remember the next time I saw the egg it hatched from, there were three of them this time.
So, I go to snatch another boat, but this one was much larger this time. It was made of prismarine blocks, wasn't fully solid (think of like, a cylinder where every other wall, there's a gap. So it goes wall, gap, wall), and it was partially submerged. I managed to fly fast enough under water to get to the little engine, but instead of taking the soul sand out, I place it to where the boat goes downward. Then, I grab hold. Bad idea.
Next thing I know, I'm being propelled deeper and deeper into the ocean until it's all black. I feel a coldness as I look around. Then, the water stops, the boat is gone, and I'm still falling. I can feel the air around me as I start to see… purple? I go deeper until I finally rich the bottom, and the text reads something like, "THE BENEATH" or something. I've been here before, and I felt the same feeling of needing to desperately needing to get out. Like I was in serious danger. However, this time, I was in creative mode, so it wasn't as bad. I still felt the need to LEAVE though. There were malformed zombies and skeletons fighting in the streets when I was there. Some were purple or blue while some were elongated. It was weird. Like everyone there was malformed. There was a house nearby that I never went into. It actually looked alright. The one thing that really defined "The Beneath" was their king. He came flying in, and everyone sat in fear of him. He wasn't that special, just a really big Guardian that spoke with a booming tone. When I looked around, I could see malformed humans in swimming suits. Like, think of a crackwhore whose skin sags and looks close to death. Anyways, the dream ends there. Pretty good dream, ngl.
If there's anything I've learned, its to not go in the deep water, and certainly, do not swim downwards until you can't see the light.
