Sasha

In this dream, I was in a shopping centre and bumped into a cute African girl who immediately caught my eye.  She was bubbly, charming, sweet and genuinely nice.  Her name was Sasha.

The dream jumped around quite a bit; at one point I was in a nightclub at 8am in the morning waiting for the Post Office to open (don't ask).  Then I was in the queue in the post office, but I'm not sure what for.  Then, I was talking to Sasha again, and I asked her out on a date, and she accepted.

From that point on in the dream, Sasha and I were an item.  Again, the order of events got jumbled; we'd be walking hand-in-hand through the same shopping centre (I think she worked there), then we'd be on a date, then I'd be at her house in her bedroom with her talking to me as she got changed in front of me (giving me a nice view of her pert breasts and lovely, dark nipples), then we'd be on the street walking together again.

Then we were walking down the road near the shopping centre one dark night.  I suddenly heard boisterous, drunken chatter from some men nearby, though I hadn't seen them yet.  Sasha then literally disappeared, and by that I mean, she was no longer there. I became frustrated and started looking for her, but she was nowhere to be found.  However, something told me she was still around somewhere.

I continued walking along the road again by myself and then I saw her walking towards me again from the opposite direction.  When she reached me, she wearing a completely different outfit and was her usual, bubbly self.  It was as if the disappearing act hadn't even happened.

Sasha and I embraced, kissed one another.  She then said to me "Boyfriend, I am so happy!  You've made me see the beauty in dating again!".  At this point I got worried as it occurred to me that I was now two-timing against as I already had a girlfriend (that is, my girlfriend from real life).  I started to worry about how I would keep up the pretence of dating both of these women, making sure they never met or suspected the other existed, and the fact that at some point, I would have to break up with one of them which would not be pleasant.  Sasha in particular was so excited to be with me, that I felt awful about the prospect of potentially breaking her heart.

As the reality of the infidelity started to take hold, I slowly woke up.

Now, this is an interesting dream on many levels.  For one, my real-life girlfriend is quite similar to Sasha (both in character and appearance).  Also, we have had some problems lately (as mentioned in my last entry), and although things have improved, there is a small part of me that has my eye on other possibilities; largely owing to the reasons for our problems, which I will not go into here.    I think this dream was addressing these issues and Sasha represented some potential opportunities from the real world.

And you want to know the spookiest thing of all?  Later that evening on the train, I saw a girl that looked just like Sasha from this dream.
