This was a stressful dream. I was having dinner with my Ex, at a fancy restaurant at the top of a very tall building. It was dark out, and I could see a charming view of the city lit up at night. In the building directly adjacent, I could see the oddly cartoonish silhouettes of other people also sitting down and eating, sipping drinks, and gesturing with their hands. I saw a few flashes of light, which was a kind of foreshadowing of the UFO sighting to come.
I was a little stressed out, and also uncomfortably full from eating a plate of pasta, although my Ex complained that there wasn't enough food, and I also commented that the food was "lightweight", even though it was the opposite, too heavy.
Then there was a scene when I got in the car with the Ex, driving on a dark freeway. He was driving, even though we were both sitting together in the backseat, somehow he was able to steer and accelerate. I thought we were going too fast, and I kept yelling at him "Watch the road!"
At one point, the car was turned completely sideways, though still moving forward in a sideways direction. Just when I thought we would surely crash, I saw a couple of the spaceships flying by. The one that floated close to us was a typical round saucer-shaped craft, and it had silver and blue metallic details. It was also flying sideways (as if to imitate our sideways motion), so the lights underneath the craft were flashing right in our eyes. I couldn't say how big it was, but it appeared huge. There were a few other spaceships in the distance, that were in different shapes, and some were more globe-shaped, sort of like hot air balloons, zipping around and flashing lights.
This is hard to put into words, because I got a telepathic message from the aliens, and I sensed it, rather than hearing specific words. Basically they came to rescue the people on Earth because our planet was in some serious immediate danger. And I got the message that we could either choose to stay or go with them.
