They had everything you needed: diapers, lotions, clothes and a magic doorway through which you could eavesdrop on your fears!<\/p>\n<p>Pregnancy can have literal and symbolic meanings in dreams. Accordingly, your dream that your girlfriend \u201cis expecting\u201d may reflect literal thoughts you\u2019ve been having, as you look forward possibly to marrying her, and to starting a family. In a symbolic sense, her pregnancy also may represent \u201cnew beginnings.\u201d In this light, your trip to the store, to purchase goods for the \u201cnew baby,\u201d may symbolize your desire to nurture and provide for the growing relationship between you and your new lover.<\/p>\n<p>Dreams of a partner\u2019s infidelity always are disturbing, but the dreams do not always reflect doubts about our partner\u2019s faithfulness. For example, if your last relationship left you wondering about your desirability as a partner (a natural feeling in the wake of a separation), it is possible your dream reflects these doubts &#8212; by showing your girlfriend attracted to other people. Do you worry that your partner would find \u201csomeone else\u201d more attractive?<\/p>\n<p>If you experienced infidelity or a betrayal of trust in your last relationship, it would also be natural &#8212; as your commitment level escalates with your new partner &#8212; to fear betrayal again. Because your relationship is new, you also may be adjusting to what you know, or don\u2019t know, about your girlfriend\u2019s sexual history. Have stories of past lovers struck an uncomfortable chord in your heart?<\/p>\n<p>If you have no reason in your waking life to suspect your girlfriend of wrong-doing, you need to give her the benefit of the doubt &#8212; until you are proven otherwise. Your dreams may be signs that you still are wrestling with demons \u201cborne\u201d in your last relationship. If this is the case, then you don\u2019t want to let your fears, as you prepare for an increasing level of commitment, spook you out of a good relationship. If you want love to blossom in your life, you eventually must extend your heart, and take the risk of trust again.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Verdana; color: red;\">Back to the <a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/articles\/shopping-for-a-baby\/\" id=\"541\" option=\"com_content\">original dream<\/a> <br \/>Back to list of <a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/articles\/mens-dreams\/\" id=\"25\" option=\"com_content\"><span style=\"color: purple;\">men\u2019s dreams<\/span><\/a> <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[3211,3014],"class_list":["post-36327","articles","type-articles","status-publish","hentry","category-copy-of-love-and-relationships-men-dreams-answer","category-men-dreams-answer"],"acf":{"article_id":"1335"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles\/36327","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/articles"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36327"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36327"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
