Is it normal to dream of loving a friend?

The meaning of this dream might be revealed in the ambiguity of this question. There are many forms of loving, and the love of a friend is not the same as sexual passion. This could be the message of the dream, that you need to recognize the possibility of loving others without confusing that affection with sexual impulses. Also, sexual behavior in dreams can be entirely symbolic, representing a meeting of minds, or getting in touch, without any literal sex involved.
