I had a dream that I was at a clinic about to donate my eggs. My older sister tried to convince me not to go through with the process, since I wasn't gonna get a lot of money for it anyway. The doctor told me they wanted me to donate between 800-1500 eggs and that I would definitely make a lot of money from it. There was something odd about the doctor, he was elderly and balding, and I remember thinking he was kinda weird. At first, I was kinda hesitant, I thought about the possible side effects and the emotional effect the procedure would have on me. I remember thinking, "What if I see the baby someday and instantly get attached, but I can't do anything about it since the baby's not really mine?" After a while of thinking about the pros and cons, I decided to go through with it. Before the surgical procedure, the doctor told me to take off my contact lenses so he could examine my eyeballs to see if I met the donor requirements. Can someone tell me what this weird dream means?

Some background info:
My sister's #1 concern in life is money, but money is not at all important to me. And I had this dream the day after I told someone I needed space from him for a couple of months, and his birthday is 8/15; I don't know if that is relevant to the 800-1500 eggs I mentioned in my dream. Oh and I like weird people.

Wow That is one hell of a dream. Day-um. I'm gonna think about that one...

What "intuitively" comes to mind is a feeling of being coerced into a situation you're not comfortable with; a feeling of pressure/unease. I think this dream could definitely reflect your feelings about the guy in your life who you told you need space from. But I'm sure there is a LOT more to interpret beyond that; seems like a powerful dream.

I agree.

I think the eggs could represent possibilities and that you feel like you have to part or "donate" your possibilities to someone you don't fully trust. And what if you see the possibility later in life, but you aren't a part of it and you can't be?

I think the warning from your sister has more to do with "getting something in return" or "an even/equal exchange" rather than actual money.

Hee hee. Naturally.

Is there something you are not seeing? About creating a reality that is YOURS?

Very interesting.

Welcome to LindaLand, dynamite

The 800/1500 almost certainly suggests your 'someone', and I think the others who have responded have made some good points ... anything strike a chord?

Wow, that makes a lot of sense.. The reason why I'm letting this person go is because I felt like I was investing so much of myself for so little in return. My ex and I were friends with benefits for a while, and I wanted commitment but he wasn't "ready" to give that to me. I know I did the right thing when I told him I needed time to move on, but part of me still wants to make it work.

That does make a lot of sense.
