Would like to hear your interpretation of my dream..

Not anything major, but am new to all of this and would love to hear everyones opinions and start becoming active in this forum.

The past week I have been having somewhat similar dreams, and I can't figure out why. Some basic information, I'm a female with horrible luck with men. I have a daughter to the first person I had a serious (5 year) relationship. We were still both young, and after five years our relationship just never seemed to work out. At this point, we are no longer together, and the past 2-3 years it was showing pretty well that things were not going to work out, so although it's upsetting still, it's not totally anything new. I have dated a few times since him, but never ever really turned serious for me yet. So needless to say, if I were having dreams about one of those guys, I would understand. My actual dreams the past week.. I can't totally remember as there wasn't a clear objective for any of them. What I do remember about them, is that in ever one of them, at some point in the dream I would run in to this guy, and even though I didn't seem to be upset in the dreams, he was very comforting towards me... almost as if we were dating/playing with the idea of dating. I felt incredibly happy? I just can't understand why it's HIM I'm dreaming about, versus one of my ex's or something. I've never considered the thought of dating this guy, as even though I DO know him in reality, I HARDLY know him, meeting him through the same company I work for, but he works at a different location. (He has come down to my location to help out/I've gone to his location to help). But in my dream world, I apparently know him very well. At this point in my life, after things not working with my daughters dad (or any other relation thus far to be fair), I thought I was pretty content with not being in a relationship for awhile, as I can't seem to find trust in men, or any feelings towards them aside from friends. So why does this guy keep coming in to my dream like this?

Thank you! I'm open to hear any thoughts or answer any other questions!

I am thinking that maybe these dreams show you that you are not as content with not being in a relationship as you thought you were. This guy all you know about him is that he has been helpful and you have been helpful to him, you do not know anything about him that would cloud the general positive feeling, and he lives far enough that your subconscious thinks he is safe to focus on - you kind of want a relationship but at a safe distance because one closer to home might not be safe and someone you knew more about might not be good because then you might know something negative about him as well, thus making him uneligible. I suspect this may be kind of like a crush: your subconscious found someone safe to focus on, but may not actually be ready for a real life relationship yet, although it may be telling you that it is not really content with your being alone after all. Does that make sense? If not, please disregard.
