Beating a Dead Horse

Dear Ex-boyfriend,

i rarely remember my dreams.
i had a dream last night that i bought this horse from this ghetto lady and her kids on the street, and it was the raddest horse and i took it home and put it in my back yard. then the next day you came over and i was so excited to show you my horse, and when we went out back it was dead, like horribly dead and rotting with its toungue sticking out and flies. You started to make fun of me for being so stupid as to buy a horse off some ghetto bitch, but then i started crying because i was really upset cause i totally loved that horse, so then you became all chivalrous and decided to go stand up to the ghetto people for me and yell at that bitch and her man for selling me a fucked up horse, but it was like 1pm and we couldn't find them, and you got all "well, i have shit to do at two, so i have to go soon" and then i thought you were kind of a dick again.

Love, Angela

This is the kind of dream psychoanalysts drool over. Let's say the horse is your relationship. You find it in the ghetto. Not a good start. You are delighted and happy with it, as people are with new love. But when you get home (did you move in with this guy?) it's already becoming gross and disgusting. Your boyfriend berates you. What did you expect, buying a horse in the ghetto--did you really expect better from him? Look at his past history. Then you two go back to find the people who sold you the horse. I think this means that you are trying to work out the relationship and make things better. But before you can, he takes off. The way he does this is cold. He has better things to do with his life than work on this relationship.

Dreams are such fun to interpret. Of course the dream could mean something else entirely, but it was the ex-boyfriend thing that got me on this track.

no, you are probably right. what part of the dream talks about how he had trouble getting it up?
