Guardian of Truth: Betrayal in the Bar
My (covert) narcissistic ex S and their (grandiose) narcissistic partner F were at my favorite bar in our town. Within my earshot, the two of them were telling A, the bar owner, that I am an unsafe person and I should be banned from using this space from now on. I overheard A respond firmly, insisting that I was more than welcome to continue being a regular here and shame on them for making such a claim. I felt warmth and gladness and a sense of gratitude that I could trust A to hold my truth and guard my safety in our community.
This dream may reflect your feelings and concerns regarding your past relationship with your narcissistic ex-partner (S) and their current narcissistic partner (F). The bar represents a place of comfort and familiarity for you, and seeing your ex and their partner there may symbolize a sense of intrusion or invasion into your safe space.
The conversation you overheard suggests that your ex and their partner are attempting to manipulate the perception of others by labeling you as unsafe and trying to exclude you from the community. However, the response from A, the bar owner, indicates that they see through these manipulations and stand up for you. This could represent your subconscious desire for validation and support from others in understanding the truth of your situation and safeguarding your well-being.
The feeling of warmth, gladness, and gratitude that you experience in the dream may signify a sense of relief and reassurance. It's possible that deep down, you long for validation and someone who will protect you from the false narratives created by your ex and their partner. This dream may suggest your desire for a supportive community where you feel secure and valued.
Overall, this dream indicates your need for validation, support, and protection in the face of emotional manipulation and attempts at character assassination by your narcissistic ex and their partner. It can be seen as a reflection of your longing for a safe and understanding community that acknowledges your truth and guards your well-being.
