Comment on Anon has a dream

  Also given it’s a dream, the null hypothesis should be that it is completely meaningless, a random firing of neurons that occurs as the brain conducts routine maintenance.

    Then there are weird dreams where you live a story organically but the end was preconcluded from the very start.

  Agreed, I, too, have come to believe that dreams are basically the subconscious’ attempts at contextualising significant emotional conundrums or cognitive dissonances, and, if not an indicator of OP’s desire for intimacy, it seems to be at least a clear indicator that their subconscious is beginning to be aware of the problem.

  Such a pity that so many people who reach this emotional threshold with themselves swing, instead, to shills and bootlickers who just want to propagate any and all forms of unhealthy relationships…

  Tbf, those are not mutually exclusive. I want to have sex with someone, preferably someone with whom I have a deep, stable, emotional connection.

  I do understand it takes time to build that connection, and am fine with having sex with someone before we get to that stage, but at least ostensibly that’s the direction I’d like to be heading, and if it seems like we’re just not going to get there we can stop having sex and just be friends or even just be acquaintances that don’t really chill because we’re adults and have no time but still be friendly.

  I think it used to be called dating back in the day but who knows lol.
