Another one of those chase dreams.

[simplytish]

I know you probably get lots of chase dreams and whatnot, so please try to put up with another one. Please bear with me--it may sound silly.

The first time I had a dream like this was a few weeks ago. It was weirdly about me being trapped on an island and being chased and hunted by a T-Rex. Oddly enough, this T-Rex would "morph" into a human--which so happened to be Patrick Dempsey for some reason. I don't have any kind of crush on this man or anything to that extent so I found it weird that this beast would choose to be him. Every time this T-Rex/Patrick Dempsey would get close to capturing me, he would let me go as if he had some pity on me. There would be other people on the island, but they would keep appearing and re-appearing all willy-nilly. I would try to swim away from the island, but the waves and currents would drag me back. When I finally escaped the island, it was on a raft that I built from scratch that needed a specially engineered sail.

Last night now, I had another dream where although it was a T-Rex, I kept referring to him as Godzilla. He took human form in this dream too, but this time it was just another handsome man--probably another celebrity because in a way I recognized him from somewhere. Anyway, I was once again trapped on an island and being hunted and chased by Godzilla. I was with friends, no one I knew in real life, and he would kill each of them one by one throughout the dream. Once again, when he got close to getting me he would back off. He would "sense" whenever I am close to getting off the island, even if he's all the way on the other side of the island, and run over to stop me from leaving. However, the one time I did manage to escape the island, I realized that I was in love with Godzilla and missed him. I went back to the island and found him in his human form very depressed. I went to him, and he returned to his Godzilla form. I sensed that he was angry with me for leaving, and so I turned my back to him submissively because I knew he wanted to "punish me" for leaving. He whipped me a few times with his tail and each time he did it's as if he didn't want to do it--like it hurt him to do it (I think I remember he even cried a little). When that was over with, we embraced and it seemed as if we lived happily ever after.

There's no one currently in my life who this would resemble, nor am I in any kind of abusive relationship. I guess this is why I'm confused about this. Then again, it could just be a weird dream with a recurring theme.

Hi!
NOt knowing anything other than what you posted, I'm just guessing!
Maybe the relationship you're mind is referring to could be either a romantic relationship, or one with someone close to you (mom,sister,best friend, etc).
Is there someone in your life who is clingy? SOmeone who seems to always wants you around?
If so, maybe your dream is showing how you are trying to "escape" or get away from that clingy person (celebrity...someone who is the center of attention. MAybe the person in your life is always looking to be the center of your attention?)
When you try to get away, that person manages to find out what you're doing or where you're going, and makes you feel guilty about leaving ( or avoiding him/her.) Not having your complete undivided attention makes him/her depressed, so you feel bad and "make up."
Hopefully my explanation makes sense!
Godd luck!

Hi again!
I was also noticing that you said Godzilla was trying to kill the other people around you. Perhaps the person in your life is jealous of the time you spend with others away from him/her. (Another sign of a clingy, attention seeking person with few real friends.)

You also mentioned that you are not in an abusive relationship. If there is no one in your life who is the clingy, attention craving type, maybe your mind is sensing that someone is trying to control you and what you do. Either it could be an overprotective parent, or someone who is emotionally abusive.
An emotional abuser will keep tabs on everything you do, and will make you feel guilty for having a life outside of the relationship. An emotional abuser will make you feel like you don't deserve better than him/.her, and will use words, not fists to bring you down.

There are many possible facets to this!!
Peace,
