Demand
A demand pressed upon you often touches the embarrassment of being put on the spot — and the resolve that can restore your standing through it. The dream may ask where you're being called on for more than feels fair, whether persistence will carry you back to good footing, and how the pressure might even reveal your strength.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for demand, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream that a demand for charity comes in upon you, denotes that you will be placed in embarrassing situations, but by your persistency you will fully restore your good standing. If the demand is unjust, you will become a leader in your profession. For a lover to command you adversely, implies his, or her, leniency.
