Dreaming of Becoming Close to Someone You Were Jealous Of - dream meaning with inherited lore
Wanting to understand someone you competed with or kept your guard up around in a new way may appear as a change in the relationship.
At first, you look at the person uneasily, but then happen to talk with them. As you laugh together or discover something you have in common, your guard begins to come down.
Korean lore: Traditionally, becoming close to someone you find difficult has sometimes been seen as a sign that conflict is easing or the direction of a relationship is changing. If the object of your jealousy seemed different, it may have been interpreted as a symbol of your standards becoming less rigid. (This draws on the common folk interpretation of making up with, or becoming close to, someone you had been fighting with as a turning point in the relationship.)
Through the mind: Rather than truly hating that person in real life, you may have felt burdened by the situation of being compared. The dream may also show a wish to let your guard down and see the other person as an individual.
