"I had a dream I got a call that I won something. Then later in dream I was talking to a friend about how we want certain things for our life and want it now. We were then with a group doing a visual meditation. Then after we were told to go outside and talk to a bunch of different people, not each other. So we went outside and there was a wedding reception I was getting food and felt super out of place, no one wanted to talk to me but felt like there were people curious and interested in me and watching me but not talking to me. I sat next to a group of girls and they got up and left. A girl from my high school sat down and more people were leaving so I told her I would stay with her and she was so grateful. There was a man in the corner no one was talking to and turns out is a man who is in a lawsuit with my friend (my friend that we were told to talk to other people) and she was avoiding him acting like she doesn’t know he’s there. He was eyeing us and I also scared as if I didn’t know who he is (he doesnt know me in real life anyway) then he left."
