I've had a recurring dream ever since I was very young, probably around 8. At 8, I really didn't like girls, I just wasn't at that age yet, yet I still had this dream.
It is always a slightly different dilemma, but the basis is always the same. The woman I love is in fatal trouble and I must do something to save her. Its a classic superhero saves the girl story, but it seemed VERY real to me. I think this dream has helped me define a lot about myself, but I am also slightly afraid of what it may mean. On the upside, I found that I am the type of person that will risk my own to save someone elses life. On the downside, I'm hoping the fact that I feel the need to protect my loved one, which is a woman, doesn't mean that deep down I feel that women need protecting or they are inferior. That insults me, but I would like to have this dream analyzed by someone.
It usually starts as me and my loved one having a good time doing something that couples do, having a picnic, being at the beach, etc.
After that, someone kidnaps her for some reason and I am told where to go to save her.
After that, I end up at the spot I was supposed to, and usually she is restrained somehow screaming, and I have this overwhelming urge to do something, and while doing this develop an overpowering hatred for the person that took her. This person always remains anonymous.
The dreams ends just as I am about to save her, and then I wake up in a cold sweat.
Now that I've written that down, it seems very strange, but also very mediocre at the same time. Can anyone shed some light onto this? Thanks.
