The last three nights I have suffered through the same extremely frightening dream. I'm not sure when it starts but at some point in the night I begin dreaming that I am lined up with hundreds of other people behind these huge concrete barriers. I don't know what is in front of these barriers, but I do know there are rows and rows of them. The start of the dream, well at least where I believe/remember it starting, is me behind of one of these barriers with probably about 100 people, we are lined up right against the barrier with our backs pressed against it. People are crying and whimpering, and I'm never sure why.
In the dream, all three nights, it has been exactly the same, I'm at the very end of the barrier, and there is a girl on my right and the end of the barrier is on my left. I know that we are looking at eachother and I can picture her face, she has dark eyes/hair and she has dirt on her face and we are both pretty beaten up. At some point I hear loud noises and explosions, I look to my left and see huge mechanical alien looking things walking by. They seem like they are just investigating, but at random times you here shooting and screaming and more explosions. At this point I look at her and say something and I turn away and run around the barrier and to the one in front of it, and I keep doing this until I reach the very front. At this point I am leaning against the barrier and there are injured/dead people all around me. I have two options, either run around the barrier, or go into a house that is a few feet away. I always run to the house in each one of the dreams.
When I am running to the house it is day time, as soon as I enter the house, though it becomse night outside. When I get into this house I am with some family, I'm not sure if it is my family or whoevers, but all I know is that I have an overwhelming feeling of responsibility to protect them. I realize kind of what is going on outside, it is like the alien like creatures are doing "sweeps" of neighborhoods, (imagine war of worlds) and I realize that I need to hide these people in the house in order to protect/save them. In the actual dream, several days go by, and each night in the dream, I protect them, but on the last night in the dream I remember, for some reason, I can't find any of them and I am forced to explore the house to try and find them.
When the aliens do their nightly sweep, I am exposed and not in hiding like I should be, and I am determined to find them. At some point, I hear a door open and footsteps. I duck into the nearest closet and hide myself as best I can, I hear footsteps come up the stairs and enter the room I'm in, the closet door is opened and I hear heavy breathing, but I can't see anything because it is so dark (there is no power in the house at anytime throughout the dream). The door finally closes and I wait a few minutes until I come out. When I do I sneak around trying to find the family, but I can't, somehow, I don't remember how I find out that they have been taken and I know I have to go back out to the barriers and try to find them and when I step outside, I wake up.
Some background info, I've been dating this girl for about a year. She is in college and I am in law school. We are about 6 hours away. I've been really lonely lately and I have started to hang out with another girl in my school.
I don't think I have ever felt the way I do when I'm around this new girl. And I've always had doubts about the girlfriend I am with now because we kind of jumped into things right after I had gotten out of a three year relationship that had a lot of problems. I had always planned on the thing with my current girlfriend to be a short term thing, but it turned out progressing past that obviously. Oh yea, this new girl I've been hanging out with has dark hair/dark eyes(is it her in the dream?), and she just got out of a long relationship and is having a tough time and told me the other night that she didn't want anything serious right now.
The weird thing is she knows I have a girlfriend already, which she has asked me to dump a few times, even though she says she doesn't want anything serious and has gotten mad about the fact that I won't because I tried to explain to her we have only known eachother for a short time and it would be crazy to do something so drastic like that, but she always hints that maybe she does want something with me now or in the near future, and we are still hanging out and talking, but not as much because of an argument we got into the other night about the whole situation.
I don't know if I actually had like a love at first sight type of thing with this girl or it's just a crush.
If anyone has any idea what is going on here, please explain it to me because I'm lost and I keep having the dream, otherwise I'd just say whatever, but it's got to mean something, right? thanks in advance.
