A Dream

Have you ever had a dream that felt so real, so vivid, that you could touch whatever you're touching in the dream and truly feel the emotion you're feeling in the dream? I had a dream like this and it was so random, but so real, it left a mark.

I had a dream about this guy, we'll call him Blake. Blake is tall, probably like 6'3" or 6'4", with dark brown hair and brown eyes, in his mid twenties. We were on a date, at some restaurant. In the dream, I knew I had been with Blake for a long time and this date felt like any other. We were talking, laughing, enjoying each other's company, when Blake gets this serious look. He then brings a small box out of his pocket and asks me to be his wife. And he said it just like that, "Will you be my wife?". He opened up the small black box and inside was a silver and gold ring with small diamonds. I was shocked. The first thing that went through my head was how much I loved him, how much I wanted this. I told him yes and he smiled, and put the ring on my finger, and it fit perfectly. I stood up and kissed him. His lips were soft and I could really feel them. I didn't know it until he wiped my cheeks that tears had fallen. I was so happy. The dream then skipped and we were at my apartment in my room. You can imagine what happened next.

Well, in real life, Blake works with me. I had never even thought about him until that dream. In matter of fact, I didn't even look twice at him. However, early on when I had first started working there, the ladies upstairs had asked if I had a boyfriend. I told them no and they were bound and determined to hook me up with someone. Well, they kept telling me how I needed to hook up with Blake. I didn't think anything of it. I didn't really want to date. I just wanted to get through step 1. But now... I don't know. As I've expressed in other entries, I kind of want to date now but I want to date the right guy.

Anyway, ever since that dream, I've looked at Blake a little bit differently. He has a girlfriend, I heard about that. I heard about that because it seems that nobody within the department likes her, at all. I don't know why. I've never met her and I'm the type of person not to judge until I've had a personal encounter with them.

I'm not looking to necessarily date Blake. Honestly, I don't think I'm his type at all. It's just so weird how now he's kind of stuck in my head. Frankly, it's frustrating. *sigh* I'm the type of person that also believes everything happens for a reason. Dreams have meanings. But, I don't know what this means. How can I have a dream like that about a complete stranger? How can I even think about a complete stranger in that sense? I don't know...
