text: what does this dream mean?!? i keep having a horrible dream that i know never happened in real life and i would never want to happen. i have this reoccuring dream that my father is raping me. i can't make it stop. i will have the dream one night and not have the dream for a few months but then when i'm not even thinking about the dream i will have it again. the worst part about it is that i have a wonderful relationship with my dad. after i have the dream i can't look at him or come into contact with him. it's not his fault that i have the stupid dream! what does it mean and how do i cope with everyday life after having the dream?! from what i see the dream, i could see that you are totally in lack of security or just sense of security.  i don't know your background.  my guess is that your parents were divorced??  you didn't mention about your mom.    you are married and you dreamt about being raped by your father and your husband.. that could only means that you do not trust men or just lose sense of security. you don't see any protection from your father (due to divorce?)  and you don't see trust your hubby.  to you, being raped is the in a way of protection.  (notice you were only raped by love ones in your dream)  i can not do much analyzing due to lack of info of your family background... but that's the best i can do so far.... hope that helps...  -your dream doctor
