The dream itself means absolutely nothing. Our mind is constantly coming up with the craziest dreams, and this one is not any different! The really question is, how did the dream make you feel? If you enjoyed it, maybe you would be interested in exploring the possibility that maybe you are attracted to the same-sex? I would just take the dream with a grain of salt. Don't focus too much on what occurred then, and maybe try to focus more on how you feel now that you are thinking about it

Well, that's actually completely normal, doesn't mean you're gay or anything maybe bi curious......

It's just a dream, everyone gets those and don't think twice about it, I wouldn't worry about it because it doesn't mean you might like the same sex, or it might, but you will know when you see it or what have you. I wouldn't worry about it.

I personally have never put much stock into dreams, I subscribe to the ideal that they are just the brains way of filing away information while you sleep. Dreams sometimes don't make sense and sometimes you do things in a dream you'd never do in real life. Or maybe you just want to kiss some cute same sex people. Who knows!

Firstly, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. It doesn't have to mean anything. It could mean that you are interested in the same sex. It could mean that you're curious. It could mean that your dreams take you to random places. I wouldn't stress too much on it because it doesn't necessarily have to mean anything.

I hope you aren't worried or anything about this because there isn't any need for it at all :) Dreaming about kissing someone doesn't have to mean anything in specific all the time. It's alright and normal for a straight person to have a dream about kissing someone of the same sex. It doesn't mean they are gay or bi. It could be a casual dream just about kissing someone who happened to be of the same sex. However, the context of your dream does matter. Was it someone who have been attracted to for a while but you've been trying to sort of stay clear from those thoughts? Was the dream detailed? Things like that. This could possibly mean that you experience same sex attraction and that you have been repressing it. Or simply, it's a dream manifestation of your inner feelings which aren't really repressed or so. Although I'm not entirely a believer of dream analysis (this isn't even an attempt at one haha), this could mean that you are queer. Of course this shouldn't be the sole basis of your conclusion that you're gay or bi or queer. There's so many other things that happen in real life that play into it and this dream was probably just a hint about it. It may or may not mean that you aren't straight. Either way, bottomline: It's completely alright to have a dream like you did :) Hope you aren't worried so much. Cheers!

It means that you like them and like the idea of kissing them. You could be gay/lesbian, bisexual or even pansexual. You need to figure out for yourself whether you want a label or just thought of kissing that particular person. Either way, please know that your identity IS valid. Be proud of it!

It doesn't have to mean anything! Some dreams are just crazy and don't have any insight on who you are. If it's something you feel like you would want to do in the real world, it may mean that you aren't as straight as you thought. However, dreams shouldn't rule who you are. Also, depending on whether or not you kissed someone you know personally in your dream, that could mean you have a crush on them or something of the sort. No matter what your sexuality or gender or identity is, you are still accepted on 7 Cups and everywhere else!

Dreams often can be how we actually feel, our underlying thoughts, but they also can be just figments of our imagination. So if you dreamt of that, you might be attracted to the same sex and have not fully accepted or grasped it yet.

It could mean something, but it doesn't have to! A lot of people have dreams that don't have a reason behind them. A simple dream does not mean much of anything.

Well it might not mean anything but it might hint at the fact that you're curious about kissing someone of the same-sex or you really want to. Sexuality is weird and confusing and I know that sometimes we tend to deny ourselves of who we are when we want to try and "be normal" but there is no true "normal". So maybe you should really think about what it means to you - have you thought about it while you're awake? have you ever wanted to do it outside your dreams? No matter what you realize about yourself, who you are is good enough and you will always be loved by someone no matter your sexuality. It's up to you to determine what it means to you but just know you have a whole family of support on here at 7cups!

I found this, maybe it will help. "If you are not homosexual in your waking life, but dream of having sex with someone of the same sex, it’s about your self-esteem. Depending on how the dream plays out, this same sex dream is about loving parts of yourself that you’ve been less than accepting of. Homosexual sex with a friend may be a commentary about some rift between you, insecurities about the friendship, or some quality or talent they have that you emulate. Don’t worry, it doesn’t mean you secretly want to sleep with your best friend."

Your dreams don't really mean anything, It could just be a compressed thought you have been having and you keep form thanking about but while your sleeping that thought comes up and it can explain why

Represents self acceptance. :) You are acknowledging your feminine/masculine side, depending on gender

It can mean nothing and everything at the same time but it's nothing to worry about! At some point in your life you might feel attracted to someone of the same-sex as you or even just start wondering how it would be to have something with that person (physically) but that doesn't mean you are gay/bi, sometimes is just a normal case of curiosity.

Maybe nothing, or maybe that was a signal of something deeper. It all depends on how that makes you feel, and how do same-sex fantasies feel when you're awake. Does that make you feel good? Is it something you woukd like? Is it the same for the opposite gender? Only by asking yourself what these fantasies feel like when you're awake you'll be able to determine who you are.

It doesn't necessarily mean that you are attracted to the same sex if that is what you're thinking. Sometimes its curiosity kicking in

It might mean that you're just curious about the same-sex. It doesn't mean you're sexually interested. Just that you're curious about what it'd be like.

It could mean something or it could also mean nothing. It means whatever you want it to mean. It could lead to you questioning your sexuality, which is completely valid, but also it could just be a one time dream and you may dismiss it as that. Whatever you decide is the right choice.

It could mean you arent straight, or it could mean nothing at all! Plenty of straight people have had romantic feelings towards the same sex and still been straight.

For me it was nothing special because I already knew that I like girls, but for others it can mean nothing, because it is just a dream. What really matters is will you act on it?

Sometimes dreams are weird and don't mean anything. But it's not excluded that you may like that person

It could be just a dream. A dream doesn't determine if you are gay or not. But it could mean it is on your mind. When I was questioning I thought about the significance to my dreams, thoughts, preferences. But really the only one who can determine how you identify or the significance of anything is you. If you choose a label that you feel you identify with that is 100% cool! If you don't want a label or you still feel like you identify as straight that is cool too and 100% valid!

don't look deep into it. it could mean you're homosexual, pansexual, bisexual or even asexual, but it doesn't matter because dreams are not reality and at the end of the day, even in dreams, love is love

Nothing in general. There could be a possibility of you having sexual feelings, but it doesn't mean anything in general.

Maybe you are attracted to the same sex or maybe it was just your sub conscious randomly dreaming about it for no reason or to convey a different meaning (a lot of dreams are cryptic) It's nothing to get too hung up about, hope you have a great day :)

It could mean that you experience attraction to people who identify as the same gender as you, or it could mean nothing! Dreams do often reflect what we've been thinking about or doing during the day time, though, so you may want to explore your sexuality more. It's important, however, not to pressure yourself into identifying as anything you don't want to. Don't overthink it!

It can be just a dream. It does not have to mean something. But, when the day comes and you have some feelings for someone of the same-sex, then it means that you probably are gay or bisexual.
