Posted in Relationship Dream Meanings
People come and go in your life. Some may stay stationary, while others may fade away and become a distant memory. No matter what, it can not be denied that they didn’t have some sort of influence in our lives. We may think back to them or they may even appear in our dreams. To dream about a former lover, you may feel a lack of closure for the love story between the both of you. There may be some unresolved issues pertaining to your past relationship that you wish to find the answers to. Without answers, you feel restless and not at ease.
Dreaming about a former love may indicate that you are currently in a situation or relationship just like the past. You yearn to change certain aspects of your current relationship and not have it lead to the same outcome as the previous. On the other hand, it may symbolize you feel malcontent and disheartened by your current existing relationship.
To see a former lover in your dream may also represent you missing certain aspects of that person or the relationship with them as a whole. You may feel unrequited feelings towards your former lover whom may have moved on. Although he or she has moved on, you still yearn for them and wish to start over or give the relationship a second chance.
Therefore, it’s best to first sort out your feelings and see what you really want before making a move.

what does it mean if a ex-lover keeps recurring in my dreams every night? and whats it mean if she and her new boyfriend are broken up for me?
Your ex lover means a lot to you, and you continue to cherish many of the memories you shared together.
When they break up in the dream is your inner most desires coming out, but it does not necessarily mean it is reality. The best option is to move on and start giving new relationships a chance.
what does it mean for my ex to keep reappearing in my dreams. he was my first love.
Your ex will always be a part of you as that is a normal because you shared with them a part of your life. Try taking up new activities, and establish new relationships that will eventually replace those memories of your first love.
My ex broke up with me about 2 to 3 years ago. I haven’t thought about him for a long time, until today. Last night I had constant reoccuring dreams about him. I didn’t sleep well. I woke up at least 5 or 6 times during the night. I never give dreams much thought, but for every dream to be about him… I am just very confused. Is there any meaning to these kind of dreams?
The human mind acts in very random ways. Perhaps you did something or saw something that triggered these memories to resurface in your dreams. It is perfectly normal, because we cannot control our dreams even if we wanted to.
Treat the dreams about your ex as you living in an alternate reality which does not necessarily conflict with your waking life.
My ex cheated on me and we tried to work it. Eventually things ended even though he says he still loves me and feelings for me, he got another girlfriend almost immediately. I have accepted that it over and dealt with the fact he has someone..it has not been an easy process. Now lately I dream of him constantly, the dream seem to mock my pain and I am reminded in each dream how things didnt work and that he has a girlfriend. Why this mental torture? I’m fully aware he’s moved on. Sometimes in the dreams we are trying to kiss or touch but something always gets in the way. I’m so mad at myself for not being able to get him out of my head!
i keep having a dream about my first love…the father of my first child who i loved unconditionally and in my dream i am confessing my true feelings for him…telling him how much i love him and in some cases kissing him…but i am happily married now and have been going on 5 years so i wanna know whats really going on
The man that I fell in love with was getting in to trouble and eventually got in enough trouble to where he was put into jail and deported back to Mexico.. I have not seen him in over a year nor talked to him in over a year… But I keep having reaccuring dreams everynight. He never was able to say goodbye. And I’m utterly confused in what to do or what to think… I had a dream that he had came back and he found me.. i was happy in my dream and he told me that he love’d me and he was sorry and didn’t want it to happen that way.. Although this is what I desire most, seeing it in my sleep made things much worse for getting over this man….
My ex and I have been broken up for many years now. We first started dating when we were 14-15 years old. Hes always been so good to me and loved me so much, i think the only reason we broke up was because we were so young. He’s always wanted to get back together with me even after 5 years. We hooked up about two years ago when he was taking a break from a past relationship. I started developing strong feelings for him, but he went back to his ex. In anger, i started dating one of his best friends, whome he was living with at the time. I only started dating him because i was upset and wanted to get back at him. He soon broke up with his ex, and started dating this other girl. I was so jealous it made me sick to my stomach. Finally i moved away from that town to forget about him, and his girlfriend that i couldn’t stop thinking about. NOW im in a NEW relationship with a past ex of mine, and i’ve been having dreams about this guy again!! about him and i getting back together and him breaking up with his gf. I know my dreams mean that i still miss him, and want him to break up with his ex for me. Should i confront him about this? about my dreams and how i feel? Or should i go on living my life and try little by little to forget about him?
It feels like i need closure? (but i dont want to make an ass of myself at the same time) HELP ME!

Its been almost a yr. since my ex and i broke up and in the last month ive been dreaming about him at least twice a week and if not more then that. Its wierd because we haven’t talked in months. I want to contact him after having these recurring dreams but i know he is in a relationship and i dont want to cause problems. Lately ive been having this one dream over and over again. I’m at a house, housesitting with my sister, the owner is unknown young guy who is on vacation with his family, im at the house and i start finding stuff that looks familiar to me so i start snooping , the dream keeps going on with me going into secret doors kinda of like a mystery and finding clues to remember how ive seen this place before. In the end i realize its my ex’s house.I find girls stuff and realize he is in a relationship. So i was trying to leave before he got home but he got there before i could leave so i try to hide. He finds me and he is suprised to see me there, he gets very upset, then is relieved i was there, and kisses me then i wake up
I have had this dream before along time ago (months) and now im having it more often(back to back)
i have dated other guys after we broke up
I wonder what this means
Assalamoalykum,
I need islamic dream interpretation.
I saw dreams about a guy whom I loved but who rejected me and did it very badly.
First I saw my father wake me up becasue i was asleep,then I see that that there is some electricity problem,I woke up and my father told me that you knew a guy from other fiqh ,i correct him in that ,my father says he has come,and my father is very happy(which is astonishing because he dislikes that fiqh),I go to see him and his mother(who was the main problem with our relationship,as he told me)where none of them looking at me or paying attention to me as if I were not present,I am thinking as to why he has come after all this and after humiliating me so much.I am unhappy and my father is very happy he says we accepted the proposal and he puts sweet in my mouth.
I ignored this dream I thought may be i was seeing what i want in real life.
But then again I started reciting kalimah and ayah’s before going to sleep and I saw him tryiong to touch me breasts and have sex with me.
I am very ashamed becasue of all this I do not want to see sex in dreams especially with him,even though I recited kalimah I saw him.
Does this mean anything?
Plz anyone help me I do not think about him yet I have dreams about him!
Hello! I keep having dreams about the guy I’ve crushed on since 4th grade. We are both 23 now and Dated when we were 21. It was my dreams come true. Then he took my heart ripped it out, smashed into 1,000 pieces and stomped on it. I am not in a new relationship for the past 2years. They way things ended before w/ my other guy werent too great… it just stopped w/ no phone call returns from him or anything… I keep dreaming that I am with him in the future and he is protecting me in some way. my current relationship is shaky and unstable to say the least. We have a daugther together she is 1. I dont know where i am going..
I meant I am not in a new relationship…
