Talking to yourself in a dream

Hi, this will be my first post here but i have been lucid dreaming for a while. And to be honest my dreams are sorta ridiuclous, though i guess thats to be expected. Though im sad to say recently ive had a series of rather unsettling dreams im hoping people on here could help me understand. Usually when i lucid dream its quite obvious to me that im dreaming and people adress me differently then in real life, and i guess thats my own mental projection of their behaviors instead of what actually is. But lately close friends of mine as well as myself have approached me in dreams and talked to me directly about the dream and my life and in mannerism unlike usally and more like reality. As if the other me or my dream friend actually knew they were only a projection inside my constructed dreamscape. I found this fascinating until i saw myself walk up and berate my own life as well as the state of my dream. My dream self asked me
"why is this dream so dull? Its boring. You used to be so full of life and your dreams so full of color and imagination yet youve changed. Why?"
Now the only reason i can come up with is that i subconcoiusly dont like whats occuring in my life or rather how ive developed as a person. I could take that critism howver as a proud lucid dreamer i dont consider the blow to my dream quality from myself any less offensive, as wierd as that may sound! But if anyone has a answer to my little dream interpretation id appreciate it. Ill also be posting alot about my vaious dreams seeing as im sure anybody would find them fascinating and also a theory ive cooked up for lucid dreaming. Anyway thanks for readin and keep on dreamin! :)

I'd agree with your interpretation. The less I paid attention to the stranger sides of life, following the tv & tv dinner lifestyle, the more my dreams were negative & agitated toward me.

Also, i've had one where my other 'self' intentionally dominated me (sexually) in a dream.
