What does it mean if I dream about someone I never met?

[penny777]

I had an amazing dream two days ago. It was about me and this boy, (who I never met) we were best friends. Me and him were in a bathtub together in bathing suits or underwear ofcourse. And all of a sudden I put my head on his broad shoulders. Then my mother came home. So we had to get out. Then while we were in the hallway going to my room. He turned me around and slowly kissed me on the lips. I felt like I knew him. Except this is the first dream I've ever had of him. What does this mean?

I was thinking the same thing today...if we've never seen these faces before how does our mind create them?

Well everything in our dream is based on our experiences and expectations in real life. So if your dream revolved around the boy of your dreams (pun intended ) your brain made the perfect boy for you out of various body parts of all the people you know. Even if you only know 10 people you could make thousands of combinations of faces.

Who says you didn't see those faces yet? You just don't remember them... and your brain can create a face from details too... it doesn't have to be a real face.

I guess our brain works similar to when we think in real life? Just picture someone you have never met, can you see them in your mind? I assume it works similar to that
