Well I know this isn't necessarily a relationship question but I didn't know where else to ask. My Grandmother passed away in May of 2010. I was very close with her and am still somewhat coping with her death. Recently me and my boyfriend have been having small problems, mostly me trusting him. Any way last night I had a dream that I was talking to my dead grandmother. She didn't say anything except that she loved me but she also asked me to take a safety pin out of her finger. I woke up baffled and looked up what this could have meant. Dreaming of a safety pin symbolizes that there is a situation on your life that is "falling apart" and you are trying to fix it. My question is could my Grandmother have been trying to tell me something about my relationship?

A female reader, Drat001 United Kingdom +, writes (11 January 2011):

I agree with SJ92. Dreams are actually produced by increased dopamine and melatonin output in your brain. These hormons act, quite literally, like haluceneginic drugs. So, when we dream, it's pretty much the same thing as if we're having an LSD trip. Some trips are good, some are bad. So, an outside person has no ability to influence what we experience in our dream.

Also, once a person dies, they don't go anywhere. The don't become a spirit or ghost, they don't go to heaven or hell. They just die. That's it.

heidipi agony auntAfter my boyfriend passed away ages years ago, he got shot, I could not move on. I would dream of him daily and I would cry myself to sleep often, I missed him terribly and I felt like I wanted to die with him..one night, I had a dream in which me and him were in class, where we met, he turned towards me and told me this"I'm okay heidi, don't worry, you will be fine, move on. I love you, I always will." After that dream, he never came back to my dreams, and I recovered, now I have a boyfriend and I am extremely happy. Sometimes people that have died that you love come back to tell you advice for your life, or to simply ask for you to let them rest in peace. Your grandmother is possibly watching over you, she wants your relationship to succeed. Analyze your relationship and find out the cause of your problems. Your grandma will always.be in your heart, she is telling you to change something, so change it, you might find out that doing what that loved one says is true, like In my situation. Good luck my friend.

What do you think about your relationship and the problems you are having? If you dont trust him than there isn't much of a relationship and you dont need a dream to tell you that. Has he given you reason not to trust? Maybe the dream is a way for you to take your mind off of the real problems you face when you are awake.

aunt honesty agony auntWell i guess that your question is one that many people will have many different answers according to there own beliefs.

Some people do say that loved ones can come in to your dreams to send you a message. I personally do believe this to be true. Yes it may have been your subconscious going in to over drive, but if you feel that it was your grand mother then believe it to be true. Now in saying that dont go and break up with your boyfriend but just do what you feel is the right thing to do.

Dreaming of a safety pin usually does mean that a relationship is falling apart and that you are scared and feel that it is up to you to save it.

Sit down with your boyfriend be truthful with him tell him how you feel and about your dreams and hopefully the both of you can work through things.

Goodluck.

You see when we loose someone close to us, it is always hard to absorb. Yet our life goes on, with our lost-ones in subconscious mind. And dream is a phenomenon of subconscious mind. When you are sleeping it brings back what you want, what you like, what you fear, even nothing that makes sense. I know this may seem harsh to you, but be sure It was only a dream. After death it is not possible to contact. There is no reason or logic to think it that way. . .
