What are possible meanings for dreams of innocence?
To dream that you are innocent can come in response to being accused of something. A dream will make a comparison to a situation where you feel accused, though the details are likely to be changed. The symbolism will express your feelings and emotions.
The theme of innocence can pop up in dreams when you or someone you know acts innocent, as in not guilty. For example, a friend does something to betray you, then minimizes his or her involvement, even pretends it is no big deal. The friend “acts innocent.” You then dream about the person claiming innocence of a crime they obviously committed.
Seemingly innocent questions and remarks in a dream can expose big differences between you and someone you know, or between you and a group of people—especially differences in viewpoints or opinions. For example, you have been attending a church and start to feel uncomfortable with some of its teachings. You then dream about questioning the preacher. The questions are innocent in the sense of you just want clarification, but even raising them in your mind can make you feel guilty.
An innocent character in a dream might be a symbol of purity. This theme tends to arise in the dreams of people who had their innocence taken or corrupted, or who are protecting the innocence of themselves or someone else, such as a child or sibling. A dream can take that idea and turn it into story about crimes and courts. The theme can arise in response to witnessing changes in someone who used to be innocent. For example, the first time you see your little sister wear a miniskirt sparks a dream about remembering her as an innocent young girl.

fell in love with a girl
Not trying to sound weird or creepy but this experience was absolutely out of this world. I met some girl (who I’ve never seen before in real life) at a party. While everyone else is getting shitfaced looking for a hookup I saw an innocent looking girl my age and we started talking. We cuddled on a hammock all night, talked, shared social media, and instantly hit it off. We left the party early, and spent the rest of the night dancing through the street (as cringe as that sounds) doing dumb teenage couple stuff. Eventually we made it to my house and hung out for a bit. The next day school is ending and I’m walking out of the school and I see her. She instantly walks up to me and we continue talking and walk out of the school holding hands. Why did this dream happen? I have no fucking clue ab anything. IMO I hope this is a sign I will meet a sweet girl like this IRL instead of dreaming hopelessly about it :((((

I'm highly experienced at sleep paralysis.
Last night I had a dream that I got an apartment and ended up with a woman sleeping in the same room as me, but in a different bed. I got sleep paralysis, but when I held my breath to wake up I woke up on the floor next to my bed in the dream instead. I somehow communicated to her what was happening. She smiled, very innocently walked behind me, reached around my neck, and put me in a choke hold until I woke up in real life. Nicest sleep paralysis demon I have ever met.

Don’t Stare at The Bird
“Don’t stare at the bird,
The big bird
He was 7 ft tall wearing an old doctors suit like a bird mask
He had a girl with him wearing a gas mask
My friend beside me completely froze like he wasn’t there anymore
It was a completely normal dream until I stared at the bird
I was told randomly in a dream before to not stare at the bird
But I didn’t even remember that until the bird man appeared
They told me “don’t stare at the bird. The 7 ft man will come” but I didn’t think any of it.
When he came my stomach was in horrible pain like it was tied in a knot
For some reason I was screaming “crowatoen” but not like the Roanoke kind.
I was screaming it over and over in my head and I woke up.
Don’t stare at the bird.”
What I wrote in my notes as soon as I woke up: ^
I took melatonin last night cus I don’t sleep very well without smoking and I don’t have anything to smoke right now. So could this be why I had this dream or is something trying to communicate with me. Why would I get a dream before that I barely remember and then out of the blue they go “don’t stare at the bird. The 7 ft bird man will come” and then continued to show me a picture of the bird man.
I just woke up super early and now I’m scared to go back to sleep. I’m sorry if my sentences up there didn’t make any sense I had just woken up scarred to death but that’s when it was fresh out of my memory. The weird thing was it was a funny dream, an innocent dream. So why do I then see a random silhouette of a bird, a big bird. And of course I stare at it because i like birds, I thought it was an owl or something. But then the bird wasnt a black shadow anymore I could see exactly what the bird looked like. And then before it was too late the bird man appeared. And I couldn’t run. I don’t know what he wanted or why I was warned about him in a previous dream. Please give me answers. I’m a very spiritual person and I’m scared this means something. And I know this Reddit is based on science so wtf is happening to me. Tell me because I have no answers and I’m going mad. Nothing scares me at all, I literally collect and clean bones as a hobby. Nothing makes my stomach twist like that. If you have any answers please share them

I just had the best dream about vampire romance
In my dream I told the vampire I’ve been celibate for over a year but I was tired of it and willing to break it with him. He bit me and it didn’t hurt. I bit him and he didn’t flinch. This was apparently our foreplay. The whole dream was innocent foreplay until I woke up. I woke up really wishing I had a vampire when I haven’t wanted anyone for over a year. What the hell does this vampire represent? Help me! I’ve literally been a closed off cube for so long with zerrrrrro interest in sex or love and then this dream happened. I miss that vampire lol.

Dreamed husband cheated on me with one of his coworkers. She asked him out for coffee 2 days later.
The title says it all. I had a dream that my husband cheated on me with a woman he works with. I've met her several times before, and I can tell that she likes him.
He's been off of her shift for ~3 months, so they never really see each other. Anyway, I kind of forgot about her until the other night when I dreamed of, oh you know, her screwing my husband.
Anyway. The timing of the dream combined with, what is probably an innocent coffee get together, has me on edge.
