THE DREAM I am hoping you can help me piece this dream I had last night. I only remember certain parts which I am thinking are the most important. I had a dream I was suppose to meet an ex at his apartment and he left me a key (to get in I suppose) I than remember my good friend was there with me and she too was waiting for someone and he was a no show. As well my ex was a no show. I was being empathetic with her about her being stood up. So I decided to leave and I didn't want to leave a mess and I started to fold blankets that were there. I was thinking I wanted it too look like I cared ???? Also with the key I wanted to leave it under the door mat for him (I didn't actually see myself do that) just thinking it. I thought after what he has done that he could still trust me and I would leave the place looking nice and key will be placed somewhere safe. I was very hurt in this dream.
