SUDDENLY IM IN LOVE?????

DESPERATE NEED OF HELP!!!!!!

4 nights ago my friends and i we’re on the phone chatting. we started chatting about my guy friends and one of my friends brought up (in a ‘friendly’ way) that one of my guy friends were attractive and complimented him on his looks. i too agreed because i sometimes give him compliments and tells him he looks good.

that same night i had a dream that my close guy friend pulled me into a kiss and we fully made out. the dream was so random and completely out of nowhere because i’ve never in my life expressed romantic feelings towards him. ever since that night; he’s been on my mind literally 25/8. like, ive been thinking about him non-stop to the point i’ve been watching relationship tiktoks, listening to love playlists/music, ive made a pinterest board of cute relationship ‘goals’, and imagining the both of us in those pictures. etc. ive made so many scenarios in my head of him and i together. i can’t escape it. it’s so bad to the point i lose sleep (or don’t sleep at all) at night because(i cannot stress this enough) he is the ONLY thing on my mind as of now; and my heart beats so hard whenever i think of the both of us romantically together in a relationship.

we’ve known eo since gr. 1 (we’re both in grade 12 and 17) and we reconnected at the beginning of gr 9 and we’re great friends. nothing has ever been bizarre between us. i always saw him as a brother and we’ve always joked around. suddenly, i see him now in a ‘different’ light and idk why.

ive told my two friends about it and they’re very much aware. i do think im having another infatuation bcs ive noticed that every winter break i suddenly ‘catch feelings’ for one of my friends. my friends also do think i’m having another one of my infatuations; but this time i feel like it may not actually be an infatuation? idk

what does this dream mean? what could all of this mean? please helpppp
