Emmy86 Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Me and my ex broke up 6 weeks ago now. Last week we had a horrible argument and had NC for 4 days and have only started talking again but things are very strange. Since we started NC I have had dreams about him everynight, some are nice dreams, we're romantic, can be quite intimate. Other dreams we get back together and people dont approve, like his family. I had one dream where he was with other woman and I couldnt stop crying. Its every night and its always about him. Whats going on? Is this normal? I really want them to stop because I want to and need to get over him and these dreams are making me feel sad because I want to be with him.
itsmyfault Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Hi There, I had dreams too, Don't read to much into them. I kept dreaming my ex and I got back together, It was weird how real they felt, after a few days they passed though. If you keep contacting him you will keep having this dreams, they don't always happen straight away. Mine didn't, They seemed to be when I was stopping myself from thinking about her during the day.
IT Geek Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 I had dreams before a breakup back in college. I constantly had a dream that I found a loose tooth during class and went all day worried about it. Then, it finally came out and everything seemed to be ok. After a broke if off with my then-SO, the dreams stopped. I told my cousin, who is into all this dream and holistic stuff, about it. She said that the dream was probably my subconscious telling me that there was something in my life that I needed to get rid of, and after I did that things would be better. She knew NOTHING about the situation with my then-gf but it made perfect sense.
headsashed Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 I had dreams about my ex basically every night for a few weeks post break up,sometimes we got back together,sometimes she would meet someone else but in the end it was the same result, i would wake up hurting. The dreams got less and less as time went on,i dont know what brings them on or stops them but all we can do is understand they are only dreams and dont mean anything. Ive recently had a few dreams about the ex,but it doesnt hurt so much anymore,probably because im about 7 months post break and ive been NC for around 5 months. I think my dreams started again because a few weeks ago my ex contacted me? who knows. The best thing you can do is go hardcore NC and soon enough the dreams will fade and when you do have them they wont hurt you as much anymore.
