I was watching a movie between a boy and a man that eventually ended by murder/suicide. It was similar to an episode of power. Then the same scenario replayed but this time I was in the boys shoes and managed to live and not kill the older guy even though he kept threatening to kill me. I was scared af as this dream was playing out. An older woman came into my version of the dream and I asked them about being in a poly relationship as a strategy to live and it worked.
Dreams can be complex and often have multiple layers of meaning. In this dream, the movie you were watching could represent your subconscious mind processing various thoughts, emotions, or experiences. The themes of murder and suicide can indicate feelings of powerlessness, fear, or conflict in your waking life.
Being in the boy's shoes in the second scenario may suggest that you are facing a challenging situation or conflict in your life where you feel threatened or overpowered by someone else. Your ability to survive and not succumb to the threats could symbolize your inner strength, resilience, and ability to overcome adversity.
The older woman who enters the dream may represent wisdom, intuition, or guidance that you seek in dealing with the difficult situation. Your question about being in a poly relationship as a strategy to survive could symbolize your search for alternative solutions or coping mechanisms to navigate challenging relationships or circumstances.
Overall, this dream may be reflecting your inner fears, struggles, and the need to find creative or unconventional ways to deal with conflicts or threats in your waking life. It could be a reminder to tap into your inner strength, seek support or guidance when needed, and explore various perspectives or solutions to overcome obstacles.
