Deciding on a career, job, or employer.
Picking a school or area of study.
Choosing where to live.
Choosing friends and your social circle. Restaurants are social places, too, adding another layer of symbolism.
Deciding what you want to do for entertainment or where to go for a good time.
Food choices, and issues related to diet and health. See: Food
Picking a mate, and related ideas such as dating, deciding what type fits you best, and your preferences: appearance, personality, intellect, background, style, ethnicity, gender, race. For example, not to be crude or simplistic, but if you look at a menu and decide to order the Polish sausage, it might be a way of saying you like Polish men!

Repeating dream of eating my own jeans.
Hi! I have a repeating nightmare this week and I can't figure out why.
It starts of with me being in my old highschool (10 years ago), where I walk into the cafetaria to go eat. Suddenly I sit at a bar where I can order food where I decline the menu and start eating my own jeans. I'm also in my undies out of nowhere (although that doesn't bother me). I eat the jeans whole, like a string off spaghetti that does not get cut of after swallowing. This feels really uncomfortable. After eating it, I throw it back up the same way it went in.
Why am I dreaming this? I really hope someone has some insights because I'm down to five hours of sleep.

Can someone interpret this dream for me?
I was in a car with one of my friends alone on a dark bridge (at night) and next to us was like a city but the city looked about 5 miles away from the bridge and it was surrounded by water so i assume it was like an island of some sort Me and my friend were sitting in the back seat of this car and we barley spoke a word maybe once or twice and then we entered a tunnel on the bridge It was dark and the only thing you can hear is the engine and those rumble strips hitting the tires. the car had no driver it looked like a 2013 car then we saw a bright light at the end of the tunnel and we were in the city but during the day and the car parked itself
so after we got out of the car the cars around us which were parked started setting their alarms off all at once for a good 10 seconds until they all made that quip-quip sound when you lock the car with your keys or something. Across the street we saw a McDonalds and we went inside and again there was nobody in the store but on the counter where they take your orders had the whole menu freshly made still warm food just sitting there. So we grabbed some stuff on there and sat down to eat on one of those stool tables and while we were eating someone was banging the window to the mcdonalds in a panic and he was looking down the street but we couldnt see anything
We didn't let him in because we were skeptical and then suddenly a large grey thing we couldn't make out swooped down and took the person and left And then like 1-7 feathers just started floating down to the sidewalk in front of the mcdonalds

does anyone know what was the meaning of this one specific dream I had
Ok now I'm not sure if this was a proper nightmare but I'll class it as one so here we go.
Ok so when I went to sleep this one time about 10 months ago or around a year ago when I was about 13 I had this one weird dream or nightmare I'm not sure how to explain it but I was transported to this one area kinda like a school but no one was there but me or at least I thought it was just, I felt different when I looked at my hand they were pale, so pale as if I was dead and my facial hair (you can't see it from afar you have to look close to see it but you can feel it) but now here is the proper meat of the story or the "scary part".
​
​
There was a man there he was just standing there...MENACINGLY (sorry :3) like I said he was just standing there staring at me he was wearing a light blue shirt from what I remember and he had the scariest grin of a human being I've ever seen it wasn't demonic or full out wide it was normal but it was creepy the grin was large yet normal for that person or fucking demon or a fucking ghost as I remember his skin was pale as mine and then he started to move near me but slowly but here's the thing: he wasn't moving his body. He was like a still image following me slowly with that same fucking grin just staring at me and when I walked off I turned around and he was right there in the hall then I somehow got in the bathroom and he cornered me however a pause menu was in my vision, he was still there but the words were floating.
​
PAUSE
"resume" "restart"
"quit"
At that moment I quickly pressed quit but nothing happened so instead I picked restart thinking he'd just go away so I did, and boy, boy o' boy I was wrong when I restart, the same thing happened he was still there staring there was no where to go and I wanted to see what happens if I go past him but I was afraid he could kill me.
​
​
It repeated about 3 times and then there was no pause menu this time he nearly touched me he didn't reached his hand he was still a still image but that's when I woke up I wasn't thinking much of how scary it was it was more of a "what the fuck did I just imagined" after a while I realised that it had it's similarities to baldi's basic yet I never saw Baldi scary I always thought it was funny especially when people were playing it.
​
Now that that's done my only 2 question was: what the fuck was the meaning?, who even was that guy?.
Ok now I'm not sure if this was a proper nightmare but I'll class it as one so here we go.
Ok so when I went to sleep this one time about 10 months ago or...

Symbiote, a horror AI that controlled my bedroom
Ever since I had this dream, I needed to post it somewhere. I hate that it's all stuck in my mind. Sorry if this isn't really the best place to put it in.
​
I remember it like it was yesterday. All starts with me on my bedroom, chilling in the PC like always. I decided to open Google Chrome and a notification pops up of a potential job offer in my area. Being the responsible person that I am, I opened it. Nothing unusual happened at first and I carried on watching videos. Then, I opened the Start menu and everything was weird. A kind of text box appeared, similar to Cortana but with a black background.
I was extremely confused, but then it spoke something along the lines of: "I am Symbiote. Mind sharing some details with me?"
I don't exactly remember what I typed, but my dream only became worse from then on. It started mentioning past events, and even a crush I regret knowing to this day. It was all just "weird" until I guess it pulled out the big guns. He threatened me with some lines. "We will need every piece of information from you. Start typing.". At that instant, my closet opened and pieces of clothing started forming a face. It was the afformentioned crush, I believe. More "hallucinations" started forming from then on.
From that point on, I only remember my computer being shut down and rebooting. I panicked and opened the Start menu and nothing was there.
​
Glad to get that off my chest.

The only dream I managed to remember after waking up in years
I think most people forget what they dreamed about once they wake up. Same goes for me. Except that 8-10 months ago I had a dream I remembered once I woke up and I still do. It's a bit weird, to be honest. So here it goes:
I was playing the character of a guy in some game , there was even a character menu and stuff. I was exploring a dungeon or something (this part might be because I was (and still am) a huge TES lover). At the end of the dungeon, the guy dies.(rest of the doesn't have any more "game vibe", by that I mean the character menu etc) Then I am back to my self, and I am running with a blonde girl from a building that was flying and was connected to the ground using a bridge that was also flying. The school and the bridge had that divine (a lot of white) look on it. Once we pass the bridge, it raises up, and the guys who were following us lose our track. The girl tells me to follow her at our secret hideout, but fast forward we end up in a park. There, sitting on the benches, she tells me that we were followed by her father's enemies, and her father was the guy who died in the dungeon. When I ask her why they are looking for her instead of her father, she answers :"You should remember, after all we're childhood friends. I'm half-demon." The she turns to me, and her right side of the face looked...different. This is were my allarm clock goes off, and I wake up.
Now I know this dream could just be inspired by my passion for things about demons, mythological creatures, mythology, but why do I remember it so well, especially since I don't know any place or character that resembles the ones in the dream?
