Scratch Head
Scratching your head — the gesture of puzzlement — often touches strangers annoying you with flattering attentions meant only to win favours. The dream may ask where you're being courted with compliments that have an angle, and whether the flattery puzzling you is genuine regard or a calculated attempt to get something out of you.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for scratch head, 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 you scratch your head, denotes strangers will annoy you by their flattering attentions, which you will feel are only shown to win favors from you.
