You may want to pass this off in a laughing manner as to dispell
your fear. But do you remember the smile that caused you to sweat?
Can you feel the blood pounding in your head? Don't put off intense
fear so easily.
When she said "See you in Rome" , she meant that. You will see
her again. In dreams or in what we refer to as "waking", she will
reveal a little more each time. These are one of the games They love
to play.
You, my friend, have been touched by the Undead. You will meet
her soon. Beware. The mystery she brings to unravel before you will
only lead to ruin.
There is a certain cemetary in Rome, I forget the name, where I
too met a lady.....
But that is another story.
Good Luck

| re: the last couple
yeah but sometimes dreams are just that...dreams
sometimes they are our bodies/subconscious trying to tell us things
In fact, more often than not that is the case
I wouldn't get this person all upset thinking and dreading the rest of
their lives, living in fear over what may very well be absolutely
nothing!
I have nightmares almost every single night and have for the last
several years. This has increased the stress in my life a thousand
fold because I can't seem to get a decent night's sleep
However, I do not feel that in the dreams I've had (which I've placed
in other topics in this conference) about dead cats, houses filled with
dead poeple I'm trying to hide, etc, are anything more than reflections
of what is going on in my life. I do not feel it means that I will
become a psycho-killer and start hiding the bodies, it does not mean I
will start butchering cats...
I know that after I've seen a movie, or had a conversation, at times, a
dream will be triggered.
The employees at DEC are probably some of the most stressed-out people
on the face of the planet due to what's going on here and the fact
we're all doing our best to weather the storm. This is just work, the
place where we spend between 8 - 15 (or more) hours a day. This does
not count the stress that is going on in our personal lives, with
family, friends, finances, whatever.
That stress needs an outlet.
If you think about it, how many people come to work every day and
complain all day long, "Woah is me," and let that stress out? Actually
many many of us keep it in. We don't take our work stress home and
take it out on our loved ones (spouse, children, friends, pets) so
where does that stress go? It gets buried, set on a "back burner"
until we feel we can deal with it. Problem is, often times it goes on
and on and we never get around to dealing with it. But the stress is
still there.
The body will find a way to give this stress an outlet. For some
people the body gets sick, for others, the minds and/or emotions get
sick. For some, like myself, the stress pours out in the form of a
nightmare.
I'm not over-simplifying here and saying that all dreams are nothing
more than a stress-outlet. I know better than all that.
However, I don't recall mention that the woman in the basenote is dead?
Just because people haven't heard from her doesn't mean she's deceased.
I also don't recall reading anything that made her seem like a
particularly horrible and/or threatening person. Strange, maybe.
Spooky, maybe. Threatening? I didn't see that from the basenote.
Having experienced dreams from relatives who have died, as I mentioned
in other notes also, I can say this sounds nothing like it. Although I
was afraid in my dreams, and even said to them, "You can't be
here...you're dead," still they did not leave me terrified.
I find no evidence to lead that this woman is dead and is trying to
send him some message. For all we know she is living somewhere with a
husband and kids.
This conference is for thoughts, views, ideas. No one KNOWS anything
for certain. We have feelings about things, but that is about as far
as it goes.
.5: Unless you can illustrate WHY this is proof this woman is talking
to him from the grave, I wouldn't be so CERTAIN that is what is
going on
.6: I'm with you...
.7: I can see your point but I don't believe in making unfounded
statements which may cause unnecessary panic in someone who is
already worried.
I'm sure we all know what it's like to be frightened by a nightmare.
We want reassurance (no matter how old we get) not confirmation that
we're damned
(just my .07 cents worth)

I must confess that I had never contemplated the possibility of being
contacted by an "undead"!
I wrote the base note because that was the first and only time that
something "unexpected" occurred to me.
It is true what a colleague said in previous replies: I don't know
whether my former school-friend is still alive; no one knows actually.
And I didn't want to imply that she was a beloved member of the Addams
family! She (and her family) simply severed all ties, I gather.
But I don't believe that overwork was the reason for my panic either!
DEC was then a very successful company, and my job was not stressing
me that much. I also tend to rule out that Montreal's
hot climate sapped the body and brain of a "lowlander" like me!
I can only remember the unpleasant feeling of uneasiness I and my
parents sensed when she was around (and she was only a baby, then).
No one ever wanted to invite her to a party, but a few good-hearted
families like mine.
But I had already forgot everything about that girl, or, at least, so I
believed. What I cannot explain is why THAT person with her "smile"
and her curious "stare" resurfaced so wildly long time after we had met.
The colleague who hinted at the undead has his personal views about the
fact, that I don't (can't possibly) agree with, though I'm curious and
respectful of all opinions. We know so little of the universe(s) we
live in after all, and the same holds true for our brain and mental
processes.
She's not hunting me, by all means. It just happened once, and I was
scared for reasons I cannot make sense of. And I cannot portray her
smile using simple words: it was unusual, and that's all. But there
was something "radiating" from her that made you feel like being
hundreds of kms. away.
I think it more likely that some (very few, thanks God) people can exert
sorts of "negative" influence on their fellow-creatures.
I believe that scientists must still put forward sensible theories on the
subject.

P.S. The wittiest remark I've heard so far on my dream was my wife's:
"Dear, now I know why you were so scared by her: she was French-speaking
like me!"
I immediately recovered from the stress.
