Well, I had a rather profound dream. I don't remember all parts, but I do remember a couple significant parts.

In one, I had been a friend with this person I was no longer friends with, and one day at school in gym class, near a pool, she and a few of her friends come up to me and she says "do you even even know how to be reliable?!" She then walks away, and we're then all doing exercises in the pool.

After that, everyone gangs up on me, hating me, and I wrote this thing entitled "Everyday," which is very negative, I think it's saying that everyday I will push away people so that their hate can't hurt me, but it's done very negatively.

Eventually some people start being nice to me, but I still look at that "Everyday."

Near the end of my dream, my father asks if I have my project ready, I lie and say that I don't, then while stacking my school work, I see what I wrote, I see "Everyday."

I don't think I've ever had a dream that profound.

I want to ask a few questions. Do you recall the primary feelings in the dream? Do you recall why you lied to your father? When you friend asks "Do you know how to be reliable?" did it seem like an accusation?

The thing I notice is that you have a coping strategy for dealing with this hatred coming from everyone, which may represent feelings you have toward yourself or what you have felt coming from other people or both. The dream may want you to be aware of the coping strategy of pushing people away so that you can have more options. Second, you did notice that some people start to be nice to you, but you stick with "Everyday," that is with your coping strategy of pushing *everyone* away. Perhaps the dream is asking you to acknowledge the positive feelings that truly are there.

Well, in relation to feelings, the same you would expect in a situation like that, fear, sadness, loneliness, a desire to not care. I don't know why I lied about the school work, I get a sense that the writing of "Everyday" was part of the school work, somehow. Odd thing is I don't really even have a father in real life, non-bio one left, and I haven't met the bio one in person, so I just have my mom, but the father thing is probably significant too. Now, the last question, it was definitely an accusation, and actually a bit of a fear I have in waking, that I'm not one you should rely on, though I want to be.

I actually do push people away in life, maybe my subconscious decided to stop being overly symbolic and just yell the issues at me in my dreams, maybe it's saying I need to stop my own hatred and realize that people are actually trying to be my friend, they are actually trying to be nice to me, but I still do the same things I've always done, everyday, and I'm tired of it...... maybe.

All I know for sure is this is one of the most profound dreams I've ever had, most are very symbolic, or very strange with no obvious reason behind them other than being entertaining.

Was "Everyday" a "project" that you were lying to your father about? I mean when you said your project wasn't ready, in some sense you knew it WAS ready and it was "Everyday"? If so it's interesting that you associate it both with a father who is absent from your life, and you lie about it. Perhaps the dream is saying you are in denial about something. I believe that dreams are usually meant to communicate something that you aren't already aware of, or aren't fully aware of. It's possible you don't realize the extent to which you execute this coping strategy.

Anger is one way one protects one self. You were using anger to push others away, in order to protect yourself. You might have done this in real life. You are telling your wiser self, the project is not ready, even though it is in your pile of books.

I like Thunder Bow's interpretation that the father is your wiser self.
