Tux and Sneakers

Hello,

I dreamt that my ex had stolen money from me (a single bill that was very valuable, nevertheless).

I also saw the guy I like now. He was well dressed but his shoes were dissonant with the rest of his clothes (kind of like wearing a tuxedo with tennis shoes). He was wearing white shoes and they looked old and they were peeling.

Not long ago I had dreamt of the guy I liked. He was driving the car and I was sitting next to him. Then we parked, he fell asleep. I started caressing him but taking care of touching him lightly enough not to wake him up. I was afraid he would reject me cause I'm not sure if he likes me back.

What do you think?

Best to you,

Minnie.

Good morning, Minnie.

Every breakup leaves us with the feeling that the other has taken something from us. In many cases it's the ability to trust. This is also a kind of currency, for it takes an expenditure of trust to open up to anyone new.

This is illustrated in your "parking" dream. You're afraid to open up to the new guy, because you're afraid of rejection. This fear is due to your experience with your ex - he has stolen your trust. So you caress him lightly - i.e., love him from afar - very careful not to wake him - make him aware of your feelings. However, the relationship cannot go anywhere under these conditions - hence the parked car.

Your "tuxedo" dream image, however, is a message that, in spite of the new guy's fine appearance, he is not completely unapproachable, for he has "feet of clay" like every man.
Based upon these dream images, I'd suggest that it's time to get on with your life. If you like this new guy, go ahead and approach him. You can learn from past mistakes - maybe not trust too much too soon - but don't be crippled by them.

Pleasant dreams,

Peregrin
