So Many People in My House

Date: 9/4/2017

I was home alone, house sitting for my parents I think, but the house didn't really look like theirs. An old friend Jennifer and a couple of her friends showed up and we started hanging out. Eventually we fell asleep in the livingroom. Then the doorbell rang and woke me up. It was Jason and Brent and some of their friends. I suspected one of Jennifer's friends had told them to come. As I was talking with them, more and more groups of people kept showing up, some I knew and some I didn't. I suspected they had also been alerted to my parents being out of town. It reached the point where people were showing up for other people and not even realizing it was my house. Like my boyfriend's ex. Once she knew I was there she started following me around for some reason wanting to talk and I just sort of tolerated her. I started getting afraid that I was going to run out of food or the party would be busted by the cops it was getting so big. I wasn't very worried about it being my parents' house. It felt more like mine than theirs, even though I have my own house irl. I wanted to get hold of my boyfriend, but had a common frustrating thing that happens in dreams where I tried to call him but I couldn't type right, kept falling asleep, misdialing etc. I almost broke my phone trying to program his number into it. Then some big blonde guy I didn't even really know said I seemed tired and stressed and started rubbing my shoulders and I fell asleep on him. Later he apologized and said he had a gf and didn't mean to be inappropriate with me. I told him I liked it and thanked him for not hitting on me. He said something about how we used to not get along, but I couldn't even remember who he was and was too embarrassed to ask. Then I noticed a group of total stangers playing some sort of weird role-playing game at a table and decided to join them just so I could get to know some new people. They seemed a bit impatient with me though. When people started leaving it made me sad though, because they'd been in my house and I'd either barely or not at all talked to a lot of them, or even introduced myself to some of them.

AI generated interpretation Your dream seems to reflect feelings of overwhelm, invasion of privacy, and a desire for connection and social interaction. The presence of so many people in your house, without your consent or control, could symbolize a feeling of being overwhelmed by external factors in your waking life. This could relate to feeling pressured by social obligations, expectations, or responsibilities that you perceive as encroaching on your personal space. The house may represent a place of security and sanctuary for you, so the invasion of strangers may indicate a sense of intrusion or lack of boundaries in your life. The struggle to reach your boyfriend in the dream could suggest difficulties in communication or reaching out for support in your waking life. The frustration and inability to properly dial his number may reflect a feeling of being disconnected or struggling to make meaningful connections with others. This could also signify underlying feelings of stress or helplessness in trying to reach out for help or comfort. The interaction with the big blonde guy who offers to comfort you and then apologizes for his actions may indicate a need for emotional support and comfort in your waking life. The fact that you feel embarrassed and cannot remember who he is may suggest a desire for reassurance and validation from others, even if they are unfamiliar to you. The desire to join a group of strangers playing a role-playing game may signify a yearning for social connection and the opportunity to engage with new people. However, feeling their impatience could point to feelings of inadequacy or a fear of not being accepted or fitting in with others. Ultimately, the sadness you feel when people start leaving may point to a fear of missed opportunities for connection and meaningful interactions with others. This could reflect a deeper longing for meaningful relationships and a sense of loss or regret for not fully engaging with those around you. Overall, your dream highlights themes of overwhelm, boundaries, communication struggles, the need for emotional support, and a desire for social connection and meaningful relationships. It may be beneficial for you to explore these feelings further in your waking life and consider how you can create healthier boundaries, improve communication, and cultivate more fulfilling relationships.
