Mortified by My Bumble Date

I’m talking to a boy on Bumble right now. He seems pretty great, but there’s been minor signs here and there that he might not be what I’m hyping him up to be in my head. In my dream, he messaged me saying he would be at a nearby concert. I was with my friend KP, and we decided to go to the same concert. I felt really nervous to see him. When I saw him, he looked somewhat similar to his profile pictures, but a lot nerdier. I really didn’t like his fashion style, and I felt kind of lied to. On the other hand, I didn’t want to be a bitch and dismiss him because of his looks. He looked at me like he was unsure if I was who he was looking for, but I avoided eye contact and kind of hid my face. Suddenly, I really didn’t want to talk to him. I felt like the signs I noticed were right, and he was never for me. He sat in the row in front of me. I asked my friend what to do, and she said to lie about my name if he asked for it. The concert venue was more like an auditorium, so everyone was sitting down. Suddenly, the girl sitting next to him stood up with a microphone and came over to me. “Everyone!” She called. “This is (my name)! This guy would like to be her boyfriend. What do you, say?” I was MORTIFIED. There was a spotlight on me, and the guy was turned around to look at me. I totally lied and said, “My name is Lauren.” My name is not Lauren. It was like they all knew I was lying. The crowd kind of booed me. The guy stood up and walked away. The girl was like taunting me, and she started asking the audience for everyone’s thoughts. She told them that we were made for one another. I told her that we hadn’t even met in-person yet, but she wouldn’t listen to me. She said we were so cute together. Finally, I grabbed my things and got up to leave. When I left, I saw the guy and told him that I was sorry but I wasn’t interested. The whole thing was just crazy and a total turn-off. That’s when my ex appeared, who I’ve really liked for a long time, to see if I was okay. He walked with me and listened to me explain the situation. I said, “UGH, I hate dating! I’m so done with it!” Then, I put my head in my hands. “But I can’t be done with it!” He asked me why. That’s when I woke up, but I wanted to tell him that I didn’t want to be alone and knew I had to keep trying. Suddenly I’m nervous this is a sign that he’s not worth it 😩 I literally woke up in a sweat from this dream, it was so stressful. Have I mentioned I hate dating?
