 No Dream Guy in my Bad Dream
I woke up scared and apprehensive about 4am this morning.
I had just had a bad dream.

Disorientated and half asleep, it took me a few minutes to realise that it was just a dream. I felt alarmed, wary and unsure of where I was.
The first thing I acknowledged was I was there alone; it was 4am something in the morning. Calculating the time difference I grabbed the phone and called BE – it was 2pm there. He was surprised to be hearing from me at this time. Hearing his voice eased my current state of mind. He reassured me that it was just a dream. Waking up at the thought of the phone bill, I thanked him and went back to sleep. Thank you BE I needed that ...

However all day today it has been playing on my mind. Now I'm normally a rational person, but this dream is still bothering me, so I thought I'd share it ... hmmm - I'll tell it like it played out ...

========================================

Home relaxing on a quiet night, the kids and I were suddenly interrupted by the front door bell ringing.
It was foty, JS and a gang of our old “married life” friends.

Without invite they all came in, and suddenly there was
people everywhere.
Foty appeared to be going through my stuff telling
me he was taking bits and pieces, and every time I told him no, one of our so called mutual friends would stop me and tell me I had to let him have it. I was getting angry.

JS made me go to the park with her and the kids. But then as we got there foty calls and makes us come home. Everyone is leaving when we arrive. Towels are everywhere all over my stuff.

Everyone's been swimming, eaten my food and left a mess - so I’m glad to usher them out.

Foty is watching me, making sure I don't follow - he laughs at me and leaves.

I’m upset and all I want to do is talk to BE on the computer. I go to the computer and it is covered by damp towels. Removing the towels I find a monitor, keyboard, mouse, printer but no PC.

Panic sets in as I call foty - who says he's keeping it because I won't give him the laptop.
I cry and tell him he can have it. He becomes a smart arse and laughs, saying it’s too late, he’s keeping my PC. He tells me I can't afford another so I’m destined to be alone.
He threatens me and says he's taking whatever he wants and I can't stop him.

I'm talking to the police on the phone; they can’t locate foty or JS.
They can't help me. It seems no one can.

All I want to do is talk to BE, he could help me, but his phone number won’t work without my PC.
Suddenly foty is taking stuff when I'm not there, he's got a key – he copied the other one before he gave it back to me. I didn’t change the lock so I’m angry at myself.
The police can’t help me, BE is gone and I'm all alone, trying to fight him, nobody would help me. foty wins. Foty and JS are laughing at me, taunting me... I start to cry ... and they laugh more.

--------------

At this point I wake up, I have tears in my eyes but I am not crying, I am sweating, I am feeling scared. I wish I had someone there to hold me, reassure me. I know I do not. Still a little unsure I get up and check the study, there’s my computer, safe and sound. I call BE and am so relieved his number still gets me through to him.
Subconsciously I am still worried about what else foty can take from me. Surely he is done, and there is nothing more for him to take from me?

There is nothing he can take from you, Easy. I know nightmares at times are hard to get over. I've been having some myself too, similar ones over and over again, and im afraid it'll end up in a phobia!

But at the end of the day, they're just dreams, they dont mean anything. The FOTY chapter is over. He's lost out on such an amazing woman, he's losing out on watching his beautiful children grow. Its him losing out on an amazing life.
You have your wonderful kids with you always, you've found love with BE, you've got US!!
*Hugs*

Again I will remind you of one thing Easy:
The things that matter most to you he can never take because he made sure they are burglar proof by his actions...THE KIDS!
And if I know Bullseye like I think I do, he would lay a new cable from here to there to talk to you if he needed to

All that really matters to you is all yours forever

Easy..I read somewhere that our subconscious tries to work out all of our problems while we sleep. A lot of these details are things you are actually worried about in your waking hours. I think at this point in your life it is normal to be worried about these kinds of things. After all you are alone and raising two children..you have this ex husband and his gf to deal with and it is all very stressful. The deal with BE not being there, that is a very real possibility in your mind(even if it is buried deep during your waking hours). Having never been alone.. I can't fathom how you are dealing with all of this.

Just know that you have support from your friends on thoughts, you obviously are loved by BE and you are a strong woman..Remember the I AM WOMAN HEAR ME ROAR line from that old song by Helen Reddy? You are going to be fine. Damn dreams..they make us think huh?

peace :) shemelts

awww hun....I hate those dreams. the ones that feel so real you're positive they are. No worries though, cause if FOTY and JS tried that shit there would a whole army of thoughts.com warriors would be at your doorstep.

I hate those realistic dreams. I think about them during the day.

WOW! That was a messed up dream! I agree with alot of what Shemelts said. Breath easy it was only a dream. I have woke up with real tears and a soaked pillow.
By chance did you eat anything right before going to bed? I find it make it easier for me to sleep but make me dream strange things and they feel very real.

It's crazy that some dreams we can hardly remember and others are so vivid. I also agree with Schmelts that dreams can be a result of subconscious fears and emotions. You are angry with FOTY for taking away your dream of a happy marriage, you are angry with JS for taking your husband and maybe you are angry at all of your mutual married friends because sometimes friendships fall apart when they are no longer "convenient". All I know is that what everyone else wrote above is accurate - no one can take away your children and no one can take away your strength. It is now approximately 4:00AM in Australia and I hope you are currently having MUCH sweeter dreams.

I agree with what's been said above. Reading your dream was like reading every worry and fear you have posted about and having each one come true. When I was grieving the suicide death of a friend I learned the term "crazy with grief". You are grieving my sweet friend and grief doesn't stop when sleep overtakes our body, mind and spirit.

I love Indian culture and the traditions that are so prevalent in the Southwestern United States. When I visited the Grand Canyon I bought a dream catcher. It's hung in the sleeping area and it's purpose is to catch all dreams, good or bad. The bad dreams caught in the webbing are burned off by the first morning light. Good dreams that are caught know their way to the hole in the center and filter down into the feathers, being held there to be dreamed another night. I know it's a legend, but one that appeals to me.

I have been alone in my bed for over 10 years. When I first found myself alone I bought a cute cuddly Teddy bear. When I awaken from a bad dream I grab him. While this may seem very immature and childish it's something that works for me. We can't always have the life we wish for ... or a warm body beside us at night. Like someone I used to know always said .... "Lord help me be creative." Peace & Sweet Dreams, EasyToSay
