Avoid

To dream that you are avoiding a person in your dream, suggest that you are not confronting some aspect of yourself. Consider what aspects and characteristics of the person you are avoiding which you are not recognizing in yourself.

Alternatively, this word may also be a pun for "a void" in your life that you have been unable to fill.
