Single
For the married to dream they're single often touches a union that won't be harmonious, with constant despondency, though some read it by contraries. The dream may ask where you're imagining yourself free of a binding tie, and whether the longing or dread behind it points to real discord or something quite different underneath.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for single, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
For married persons to dream that they are single, foretells that their union will not be harmonious, and constant despondency will confront them.
Fontaine, 1862
If a married woman dreams that she is single, and that attentions are being paid to her by a beau, it foretells that her husband has become captivated by a new love, and will probably be false to his vows: the omen is similar to a married man who dreams that he is either a bachelor or widower.
