Dinner table

Date: 7/1/2023

By Yeraz

I dreamt my priest, dad, boyfriend, his mom and me (and I think my mom) were at dinner at my house. It seemed by boyfriend was asking my dad to marry me or something, but he said something my dad didn’t like, something about the girls in Paris. My dad said, how could you say that about the girls in Paris when you want to marry my daughter? He was so hurt he almost cried. He brought up his concern at the dinner table and I told him he needs to bring it up in private, not in front of the priest. My boyfriend’s mom basically went hiding into another room. Then my friend face timed me and told her to go to her house next door and dance with them (Armenian folk dancing). I think I went there?

AI generated interpretation In your dream, the dinner table symbolizes a space of gathering and connection. It represents an opportunity for important conversations and interactions to take place. The presence of your priest, dad, boyfriend, his mom, and possibly your mom suggests that this dream is centered around relationships and family dynamics. The main focus of the dream appears to be the interaction between your boyfriend and your dad. Your boyfriend seems to be seeking your dad's approval or permission to marry you. However, an issue arises when your boyfriend says something about the girls in Paris that your dad finds offensive. This comment deeply hurts your dad to the point of almost crying, indicating his emotional vulnerability and disappointment. Your dad's reaction reflects his protective nature towards you as his daughter, as well as his concern for your future and the choices you make for yourself. The comment about the girls in Paris may symbolize a potential mistrust or hesitation that your father has towards your boyfriend's intentions or character. Your response to the situation is interesting. You suggest that your dad bring up his concerns in private, away from the priest and the dinner table. This could indicate your desire to keep family matters separate from public scrutiny and to maintain a sense of respect and privacy within relationships. The presence of your friend's FaceTime call and her suggestion to go to her house and dance with them (Armenian folk dancing) introduces a different setting and activity. This may symbolize a diversion or temporary escape from the intensity of the family situation. It could represent seeking solace or seeking a more joyful and carefree environment amidst the tensions between your father and your boyfriend. Overall, this dream reveals underlying concerns and tensions surrounding your romantic relationship and the approval of important figures in your life, particularly your father. It reflects the need for open and honest communication, as well as respecting boundaries and privacy within your relationships. The involvement of your friend and the suggestion of dancing also indicate the potential for seeking support and finding moments of relief in challenging situations.
