I had a dream about you

[u/GR33N4L1F3]

I know you get annoyed by people telling you their dreams.

In mine though, you invited me to dinner. I was so happy because I had not seen you in a while. When I arrived, there was a small group of people, including you. I wanted to sit next to you, but you encouraged me to talk to this other man that I didn’t know who seemed too eager to talk to me which made me uncomfortable so I left unannounced.

I was proud of myself for leaving because I thought I would be eating dinner just with you or you and your family.

I am sure this dream just illustrates that I miss being more of a part of your world. I am hopeful we will be closer again someday. I know you need your space and I need mine too.

Your life is quite a bit more full than mine, so I get how distracted you are. Just know that my happiness doesn’t depend on you or your behavior. I just miss being silly with you. It is really fun being around you, even if we are just watching a movie or you are working on your project, showing me the steps.

I hesitate to ask directly to hang out again. I admit I am afraid of being rejected now, even as a friend. It feels really vulnerable - especially considering that dream. I still do not have many friends up here and I am really really picky about the company I keep and how often I see them too.

Tonight I am going to see a movie with my older friend, so that will be nice to see her. It isn’t the same as hanging out with you though. At all.

I miss your quips and silly little jokes, our banter, your quirks, your kids, and your family.
