Don't lie, you know this too: you're somewhere with a friend or a colleague. Actually, you’re never together but suddenly you are. The wine flows freely, you flirtatiously touch each other, and eventually, you end up in bed together. You don't quite understand what's happening, but the sparks are flying and suddenly... you wake up. That such a dream about someone you know is an incredible mindfuck is an understatement. Sometimes you can be confused for days while you keep wondering where such a dream comes from. Don't worry: science has an answer to this. Always been curious about what that dream about your medium attractive colleague meant? I'll tell you.

A sex dream about a friend
Dreaming about sex with a friend doesn't necessarily mean that you are sexually attracted to them. Friends are emotionally very close to us, and these kinds of dreams often help you see personality traits that your friend has that you unconsciously wish you had too.

A sex dream about someone of the same gender
Some psychologists believe that a sex dream about someone of the same gender is an indication that you are balancing the feminine and masculine aspects within yourself. Connecting with the feminine or masculine aspect of yourself in a dream can be very powerful and enlightening. For example: if you identify as a woman and have sex with another woman in a dream, your subconscious may be subtly telling you that it’s time to embrace that side of yourself.

A sex dream about your boss
Such a dream where you feel a bit dirty every time you think back on it. By the way, you don’t have to be ashamed of this; it’s one of the most common sex dreams there are and it rarely really has to do with sex. Maybe you see aspects of yourself in your boss or you might do well to work more closely with them on an upcoming project. Or it projects your ambition to create more leadership at work. Whatever it is, these dreams are often more about control than about sex.

A sex dream about your colleague
Admittedly: a little tension in the workplace has never made anyone a worse person. That said, these dreams are not necessarily a sign that you have a crush on him or her. Sex dreams are great for highlighting our inner qualities and personalities. They can help us see who we really are and how we can reach our full potential. To figure out what it really means, you should ask yourself the following: what kind of colleague are you having sex with in your dream, what stands out about him or her, and what qualities do they represent that may also be present in you? Don't have an answer to this? Well, then it might be time to meet up after work.
