How many of you guys have dreamed about coming out to someone? I usually dream about whatever it is I think of a lot during the day. Yesterday I watched a movie about a gay kid who came out and his parents were totally fine with it. Then I dreamed about being back home with my parents and coming out to them. In my dream they were both fine but never talked about it. Then I walked in the street with my brother and there was a stall that gave out free soup to LGBT people. For some reason my art teacher from high school was there and she was upset that only LGBT people got soup. :roflmao:Then I was in the car with my mom and I told her about the many different types of sexuality there are and all she asked was: "Why would you read up on this type of stuff?" to which I replied: "Because I wanted to know more about myself." That was the only thing I remember talking about during that dream. I also remember being sad that I didn't film my coming out, and that I came out to my parents first, and not to my brother. The whole dream felt really awkward and I was so glad when I woke up. XD So...if you've had any coming out or sexuality-related dreams/nightmares feel free to share.
I had a dream where I was lost in the woods and I met a society of lesbian ladies who gave me s'mores and I came out to them.
I've had dreams where I was accidentally outed or nearly outed. Usually in my dreams, I don't realize I am wearing pink nail polish as I get together with family.
I've had tons of those kinds of dreams. They make me sad because I realize that my parents will never accept my sexuality and I'll have to stay in the closet until I'm financially stable enough to move out. Those dreams give me a liberating feeling, and coming out just feels so good because then I don't have to pretend like I'm this straight girl anymore, and I'll get to be myself without the judgement from the people closest to me.
I had a dream where I was over at my sister's place and came out to her.. And her husband punched me in the face for some reason, breaking my nose.. Then my sister shoved me out of the door and told me that: "People like you are an abomination and you're not welcome in my house." I woke up crying.. Cause it really felt real.. And I'm not prepared to lose my family over this..
I dreamt I came out to my homophobic friend, but in the dream she wasn't homophobic and said she always knew and that it didn't change anything. Pretty good dream... if only it translated to reality.
Here's an interesting dream I had prior to me figuring out exactly what I am but knowing I wasn't straight: I had a dream once where Cher (the pop singer) was my Aunt and I had come out to her and my Mother as bi and they threw a party to celebrate me coming out to them. I don't know why Cher was there though because I don't even like her music and have never really cared about her.
I know I've had coming out dreams about my gender before, but I don't remember them well... I do have a lot of "getting a binder" dreams though. Like, a weird amount. I had one right before I woke up this morning and it really bummed me out because in reality I still have to wait a number of weeks to get mine, but in the dream I vividly had the package in my hands. I've also had dreams about having to hide gender stuff from my parents (like binders or clothes).
I've had dreams where I've been caught by friends or family wearing women's clothes. Sometime I panic and trying to hide or chance. Other times it's just seems normal and I just carry on.
Before I came out I dreamt about it several times, though often my parents accepted me in the dreams. It was what I fervently wished for, but alas, reality is not so kind.
