DREAM - really fighting I keep getting dreams of arguments with my boyfriend which are so intense that we actually end up literally fighting each other.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION The dreamer had been getting along with her boyfriend until recently when they had been having arguments. Her boyfriend would never hit her. But they do keep fighting over stupid stuff and it was really affecting her.

DREAM ANALYSIS: It is not easy to say what a dream means. In this case it is better to start off by saying what this dream does not mean. If your boyfriend hits you in a dream it does not necessarily mean that you fear his physical violence. In this case the dreamer said that her boyfriend would never hit her in real life so lets keep it at that. The dream does not point to any suppressed anger and it does not predict him turning psychotic. Her dream mind does not know better than her waking mind!

Notice how both the dreamers boyfriend and the dreamer are fighting. In dreams physical fighting represents emotional battles. The physical violence probably hints at the intensity of the arguments and thoughts like "these are not just normal arguments they are very intense".

The dreamer says that the violence is getting to her. The dreams meaning probably links to that exact thought.
