What does it mean when you dream you killed someone you love?

Understanding the Dream

When you dream of harming someone you care about, it often reflects suppressed feelings of anger or a longing to break free from a troubling situation. This dream does not imply a sense of triumph; instead, it represents an ongoing conflict. You may be yearning to liberate yourself from the emotional pain or influence of that individual or issue. The notion of 'killing' in the dream is metaphorical rather than literal.
