Manners
Manners — ugly or affable — often touch how others' conduct helps or hinders your aims. The dream may ask whose disagreeableness might trip up an undertaking you care about, and whether a pleasant, well-mannered encounter is the unexpected turn that lets an important matter come round in your favour.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for manners, 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 of seeing ugly-mannered persons, denotes failure to carry out undertakings through the disagreeableness of a person connected with the affair.
If you meet people with affable manners, you will be pleasantly surprised by affairs of moment with you taking a favorable turn.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of ill-mannered people, who annoy you by their awkwardness and selfish conduct, shows that you will shortly go on a journey, and be introduced to a fool.
