Kissing

Dreaming about kissing a colleague

What does it mean to dream about kissing someone you work with?

The most reported specific case, and the exposure explanation covers it almost completely. Colleagues are among the people a dreamer sees most often and most recently, which puts them near the top of the available cast regardless of how the dreamer feels about them.

The awkwardness is real and worth acknowledging: dreamers report finding the next working day uncomfortable, and several report avoiding the person. That is a consequence of the dream rather than information contained in it.

Where a dreamer does have an attraction they have not admitted to themselves, a dream can certainly feature it. The point is that the dream is not evidence either way, and treating it as evidence is what causes the trouble.

Where this reads well

None needed. The useful outcome is usually to stop reading anything into it.

Where it is harder

The social awkwardness is the actual cost, and it is caused by the interpretation rather than by the dream.

Worth asking yourself

How much time do I spend around them? Was anything happening at work that week? Would I have thought about this at all if I had not dreamt it?

Dream interpretation is subjective. Nothing here is a diagnosis, a prediction, or medical advice.
