Dream of crying with a stranger - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may reveal a wish for unexpected understanding or an emotional connection in a new relationship.
You sit across from or stand beside someone whose face you barely know, crying together. Even without explaining why, it feels as though you understand each other’s feelings.
Korean lore: Traditionally, crying with a stranger is sometimes seen as leading to a new connection or unexpected news. Tears shed together have often been interpreted as a symbol of a relationship where feelings are shared. (In folk dream interpretation, an unfamiliar person in a dream may represent a relationship or situation that has not yet revealed itself.)
Through the mind: You may be wishing for someone who can accept the feelings you find hard to share in your current relationships, without prejudice. It may also reflect hopes of growing closer to someone in a new group or environment.
