Arsenic_Child Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 Me and my Ex have been broken up for i would say roughly 2 months in 5 days Last night when i was sleeping, i had a dream that we talked everything out and we worked everything out and we went to go cuddle in bed and fell asleep. it was so pleasant and i was happy for once in a long time because i thought it was true. We used to sleep together EVERY night even thou we didn't live together, and during the night we would hold each other or spoon together - during that time was probably the best nights of sleep i have ever gotten. Anyway, i thought i woke up in the middle of the night and saw her laying with me, but i wrong, and when i was fully awake this morning, i realized it wasn't her i was holding, it was just my pillow
westrock Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 Why say it sucks? I see your dream as showing you possibilities. Your subconscious must be sending you a postive message. What is your subconscious telling you? Maybe there is a chance with her, or maybe you want this feeling with someone else? Why not make this dream a reality?
ahhhchooo Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 I hate those dreams too. I generally tend to have them when I wake up too early in the morning and go back to sleep. I have vivid dreams of us getting back together. Really think that they're real. But when I wake up reality kicks me again and starts the day off on a bad note. The irony is I never recalled dreaming of her when we were actually together. I don't think I dreamed of her once.
nickelinadime Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 You don't know what you've got until it's gone? Hm. Just keep the no contact and the dreams will slowly diminish. Time doesn't heal all wounds, but you certainly can. Keep strong.
0hpenelope Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Yep. Yes, they do - for a while. Just do your best to carry on with the "business as usual" attitude. Eventually, their potency goes away and you'll find you're not as affected as you used to be.
Intergalactic Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 i still get the vivid dreams. they're so real, and i can't say i hate them. they're bittersweet, because they're not reality for me anymore but the feeling they give me is one i can't quite describe. sad, happy, lonely, loved, hopeful - all at once. don't worry, it will get better. appreciate the dreams and the memories, try and move on anyway. never forget that there will be other loves for you.
lofi_tokyo Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 I hatehatehate dreams related to my ex! Which it seems like I've been have a lot of lately. Unless I go to sleep feeling 100% satisfied with myself it seems, I will inevitably have a nightmare about him and the new girl he is seeing. The feeling goes away after a maybe an hour, but I wish I could get some solid sleep in, honestly! And I should add, why am I up now at 4-5am? Nightmare! Booboobooo!
bayouboi Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Man it's been nearly 6 months now and I'm still having those dreams. Here I am up at 6 in the morning (with intentions to sleep till 8) because every time I dozed back up I was thrown into another dream with her in it that would startle me back awake. :/
Author Arsenic_Child Posted September 21, 2008 Author Posted September 21, 2008 yeah, thats what happened, i woke up around 4 or 5 to turn off my music on my computer fell asleep and thats when the dream happened, it seemed all to real, and when i woke up, it hurt so much to realize it was only a dream
bayouboi Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 Still having the damned dreams nightly, but last night something changed for some reason. Up until last night, most of the dreams were about us still being together or us being temporarily apart with future prospects of togetherness again. Last night's dream seemed to be more of an acceptance of the end of the relationship and a realization of its demise. I hope this means my subconscious is finally processing the trauma and will finally start leaving me alone in my dreams.
