I had a dream last night about a guy. I don’t know him in real life, so I guess you could call him the guy of my dreams. He was amazing and cute and I mostly remember making out in a porthole of the boat. When I got back home, he broke up with me via instagram dm (weird cus I never use Instagram). It was overall a really nice dream though, and it’s strange to wake up in love with someone who has only ever existed to you.
Now when I was younger, around 11-13, I would have dreams that I was not only a cis guy, but I wasn’t me at all. I had a different body, a different name, a different house, everything like that.. In these dreams “I” would usually be kissing or holding hands with other guys, “I” would have boyfriends, all sorts of stuff like that. I would be sad when I woke up because I felt I could never be loved for myself, that everything about me had to be different to be loved as a guy by other guys.
I distinctly remember that in last night’s dream I was trans and I was me. In this dream there was no doubt that he loved me, not despite or because of my transness, he just loved me as another guy.
I think there’s something very important in that.
