Dilemma

[emx]

On a newly constructed building, I was on my way to the second floor via stairs when someone (an engineer or one of the construction workers) stopped me. That someone advised me not to go downstairs nor move. I got nervous coz I've already imagined what will happen next. I made a couple of steps but then i was stopped again by the same person. So, I decided not to move. Stairs started to crack. Then I noticed that I will fall to a muddy-like-water. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath coz I knew i'm going to fall and I don’t know how to swim. When I opened my eyes, the water became clear and my ex-boyfriend was on top of me to save me. His face was bright, eyebrows raised twice and he seemed confident. He was assuring me that we'll be safe. Then I felt secured. He led me to a small opening and entered to it first. Then I followed him. All of a sudden, we came out to a part of a mall and we were catching our breaths. People were staring at us and confused/curious with what just happened to us. We walked away without looking back. We were happy then.

Sounds like a positive dream. At first you're advised not to move, stairs crack, muddy water, everything seems like you are going to fall in and sink because you can't swim. Then suddenly, boyfriend appears, water gets clear, he makes you feel secure and you walk out of the danger into a Mall where you feel safe.
Sounds like you feel the boyfriend is confident and able to lead you out of trouble.

The dream is cautioning you against not repeating the same mistake(s) as the ones you did with your ex-BF. You need to evaluate what happened with him, how you picked him, and how the relationship developed and eventually dissolved.

The dream is advising you to put those lessons in perspective while you are "shopping" (symbolized by the mall in the dream) for new prospects.
