The Reluctant Thesbian

It was a large group of people and we are at some sort of event. We're two other men and myself we've been assigned a small skit or piece of a play. Two other men have most of the dialogue. As we rehearse our parts I don't understand mine it doesn't make any sense. I have one or two words lines at a time and I am supposed to be flirting with one of the men as if I am gay and his status is uncertain. I can't get my mind around the idea. I am so stumped by the idea that I can't memorize my lines even though they all boil down to just a few words. We get closer and closer to the time we're going to have to perform and I have no idea what I'm going to do. I fret over it over and over again and yet still never memorize even a single line or queue. We are minutes away from performance and I still haven't decided what I'm going to do.



Notes: I come in and out of the dream and easily return to the dream but I'm just as stuck each time. I'm going to think of stupid I am but I don't just spend the time memorizing the lines.

What does the dream want? For me to consider my future sexual partners?

Reality check: I'm not struggling with my sexual orientation but I am definitely struggling with my lack of sexual intimacy in my life.

Bumper sticker: in theater there are no small parts.

Dreams to action: I have no idea.
