I’ve always experienced super vivid dreams, and it often takes me a while after waking up to understand they're not real. Occasionally, it's a disappointment, but most of the time, I just forget about it and move on. In 6th grade, I had a really close friend, and we never had any fights. One night, I had an incredibly vivid dream where my friend and I had a huge falling out over something I can't even remember now. I was really good at holding grudges because I was not a forgiving child, so for three weeks I completely ignored my best friend in anger to the point where she started crying in front of the teacher and he asked what was going on. While recounting the story, I suddenly realized the events were strange and that it was all just a dream. I went silent, stared at my still-upset friend, and had no idea what to say because I had seriously messed up.
