Thread: How to focus in a dream?

I have had this lady reapear in alot of my dreams for years now. In my dreams its like if I know you I automatically recognize you and have on many occassions I have said there names and they would acknowledge me like in real life. If I dont know you though, I'll take a real good look at you and study your traits and to this day I can still do that and I can go into extreme detail about what they looked like, enough to easily paint a picture of them.

But there has been many times where I would dream about the same lady, someone I dont know in real life, Ive never seen in any magazines or tv or anything. And in all the dreams, I am somehow involved with her, once she was a nurse doctoring my hand after I hurt it somehow. Shes been an employee in the place that I work yet the name badge is always blank. But everytime I try to look at her face, she hides it, like she looks down or looks away so I cant see her. One time I dreamt I was in a bar walking behind her, admiring the huge back tattoo she had, she was wearing an open back dress. And I knew it was her, I yelled out "hey" and she turned around and I finally saw her face, but before I could really look at it, a guy attacked me and I got in a bar fight.

In my dreams I can go into extreme detail on my surroundings, even if Ive never been in the room or building before, I can remember every detail about it because in my dreams if Ive never been there, I look around and study it a little. I can very easily remember art, and in alot of cases I have been able to draw the art that I see in my dreams, in some dreams I have new tattoos, and I remember them and have drawn them up and have even gotten quite a few tattood on me. But for the life of me I can not get this ladys attention to get a good look at her.

I think of her as my dream girl because like I said she has been in numerous dreams of mine for years now. I dont dream about her alot though, like honestly maybe 5 times a year for a decade now. The things that always change on her is her clothes, and her hair, always a different length or color. I can easily recreate her body by now, but I have never seen her face. How can I get her to come into a dream of mine and how can I get a real good look at her? Like is there a way to make her appear in a dream and like sit down at a table with her and talk so I can hear her voice and study her face?

Ive never lucid dreamed before, but Ive never really tried either. I dream every night and usually I just allow my mind to go the route it wants to go and I just sit back and enjoy the ride. All of my dreams however are very detailed never fuzzy and I can feel, taste and smell everything in the dream.
