7. Series of Dreamy Relationships

A month ago, I had three nights straight of nothing but dreams where I had some sort of relationship. About two weeks later, another dream occurred that blew the others out of the water.

First, I had to get married to a prince for the sake of the Glee Club. That much was obvious. But it seemed I had to fight with my fiance against another kingdom... On a playground.
The park was the size of a football field, but the jungle gym stood in the dead center, about 10 yards all around, but rising up about 5 stories. The jungle gym had slides spitting out warriors from every which way. I stood tall at the very top, watching the battle unfold.
My prince led his army to the edge of the sands of the playground, waiting for the opponent to march across the volley ball courts to meet him.
This is where I woke up.

Second was a dream that made even me wake up in a "Huh?" state.
It all started in the shower. For some reason, my best friend and I were extremely muddy. We took turns taking showers, waiting for and talking to each other  in the same bathroom while sitting on the toilet. While I chatted with her, I suddenly knew that someone was getting off parole.
This someone also happened to be a guy at school who I had known that he liked me but never said anything.
I had no idea what he did, but I knew I had to see him. And he just so happened to be at my house... with his family, announcing the good news.
He said farewell, meaning that he was leaving town for good with his family. I was dumbfounded, watching him go in silence. He and the family piled in the car and were gone...
But I went out anyway to yell at him as they turned onto the highway:
"I guess there will never be an us!"
Suddenly, there was a screeching sound, and the same car came driving back. He pulled up next to me on the sidewalk, opening the passenger door from inside, and invited me in. (I'm guessing he punted his family out to come get me.)
We drove off into the sunset.
And I woke up.

Thirdly, the relationship was just dream knowledge, like I knew I had a boyfriend.
I was at the mall, testing massage bed... when the mall suddenly became a hotel. My one room was bright red and brown... with an awesome portal to the other lands where I fought monsters in a whole new world.
The portal brought me to a strange, icky place: Valentine's Day Land. I met up with my "partner", who would help me defeat the boss of the level: a zombie bunny who was deprived of love.
I woke up.

Finally, my relationship dreams to end all relationship dreams occurred, and I got married five times. No honeymoons, no divorces... Just ceremony after ceremony. I believe something went wrong the first four times, but I only remember the finale of the last marriage.
My groom was faceless, but stood three heads taller than me and wore a white tuxedo. The ceremony had just ended, and we were about to go to the reception. For some odd, unfathomable reason, I sent him on ahead so I could drive with my family there.
It was pouring outside. My dad decided to bring the Bronco instead of the Odyssey. It was... just a bad idea. It took forever to load into the car, and when we finally did, we couldn't find Babci or Duke, my grandparents who we were supposed to be following to the reception area.
Dad sent my sister and I back to the church (which really was a hotel) to wait in the lounge while he and Mom tried to figure things out. We stood between two automatic doors where I finally got a glimpse of my wedding dress... I hated it.
I was wearing a little girl's church dress, complete with the poofy skirt, box cut sleeves, and big bow on the back of my waist.
After taking in my ensemble, I noticed a guy standing a few feet away, staring at me. I recognized him as another guy from school. I turned to my sister, who subtly winked at me.
I woke up.
