Thoughts and questions about the longing to be "gotten", and the longing to "get" others.

late, then lost...
I dreamt last night:
I had an appointment at 2pm, arrived early. The office was larger than in real life, I wandered around, met people, waiting for my appointment time. I knew some women working in another section of the office, slightly. I realized it was 2:23pm, panicked, I walked to the waiting area just outside the entrance to the rooms. The door was ajar, just a little. I peeked in and he was there for my appointment, but as he led me to the room for session, that door was closed. When he opened it, another therapist was meeting there...
I asked, "could we meet in the courtyard?" "Sure" he replied, then he received a phone call and was chatting on it...I waited, then I went out the door to the courtyard of the building. I walked a few feet, then the courtyard turned into a mall area with many people. A large group was gathered to one side of the mall, and I walked up to them to hear what the leader of the group was saying. The leader thanked everyone for their participation in the event, and then another woman in a business suit walked up and asked if the event was over, "the alarm went off a couple of minutes ago, so we're checking it out." I thought I might have set off the alarm as I entered the courtyard... I walked a little bit away from the crowd, then realized I was lost...

I woke with tears in my eyes, and a heavy sadness in my chest. I'd missed my appointment, and I was lost.
