What does it mean to dream about neighbor?

The figure of a person living nearby in a dream, often reflecting the theme of close but not overly personal boundaries.

A neighbor symbolizes an intermediate zone of relationships—not a close friend, but not a stranger either; someone whose presence you have to tolerate or with whom you must negotiate space boundaries. This often reflects questions about personal boundaries in general.

What it might feel like

Neutrality, sometimes irritation or unexpected warmth
