False Fathers

Date: 3/8/2023

By KingBalcolny

I dreamed that I was in a room filled with sketchy people, and in the corner there was an ATM machine. My father was there too. He lived in the room in the corner. He came out of the room and asked me for money. My father has never been in my life, so for him to ask me for something left me feeling stumped. How you could ask of something from the child that you never cared to care for. From the child that you failed to give anything. He went back into that room in the corner. And for whatever reason, I walked up to the ATM machine and took out a 20$ bill. I opened my fathers door. There he was in his room lying down on the floor. On an old mattress. He reached for the money and all I could think of was that I didn’t want to be in the position that he was in. I want better for myself.

AI generated interpretation Your dream seems to reflect feelings of anger, confusion and a sense of abandonment. This may be due to the fact that the father is an absent figure in your life. Your subconscious mind may be trying to process this unresolved issue through your dreams. The sketchy atmosphere and people around you may symbolize your fear of the unknown or unpredictable events that occur when your natural father is present. The ATM machine may represent your feelings of vulnerability and your concern that your father is using you for financial gain. Your father's request for money may indicate a desire for a relationship with you, but without putting in the necessary effort to establish an emotional connection. The fact that he was living in the room in the corner suggests that he is no more than an outsider in your life. Your dream shows that you have control over your own future and your choices determine your path. You do not want to be stuck in the life he's leading and are on a quest for better things. Overall, your dream is a reflection of your emotions about your absent father and your desire for a fulfilling life, without his influence.
