Why did I dream of my ex? - 5 Possible explanations 😴

To interpret this dream properly, you must analyze the context and the content of your dream.

>>> Discover the meaning of the 10 most common dreams -

1. You still have feelings for your old flame

Did you dream that you were madly in love with each other? Then the problem is that you are still yet to have drawn a line under this story. Like it or not, there's still a part of you that still has feelings for this person. That's why they often appear to you at night.

2. You need to grieve this period

If you are in a relationship, and you have finished your previous story, be careful, your unconscious is trying to alert you to your current situation. It is possible that you are reliving the same kind of situation or that you are reproducing the same pattern and the same mistakes. Take the time to think about it, and think about it before it's too late!

3. You are still adjusting to single life

This type of dream may simply mean that you are in need of affection. You feel lonely, and it's convenient to imagine yourself back in your ex's arms. This dream reminds you that you are not alone, that you are loved, and that you will love again. Have confidence in the future.

4. You are missing sex with them

If you have dreamt about having sex with your ex, it may mean that you are afraid of feeling unwanted or even scared of going through a break-up or hurtful situation with your current partner. Ask yourself these questions: what is your relationship with your body? How do you look at it? Would you say your sexuality is fulfilled? Are you fulfilled?

5. You are jealous of them moving on

Here the interpretation is clear, seeing your ex with another person indicates that you want them back. If your ex still has feelings for you, it is not impossible that you want to relive the past with them.

🗒️ A word of advice: 🗒️

If you are uncomfortable with these dreams, avoid thinking about them and block out thoughts of your ex as much as possible. The more you think about them, the more you will dream about them.

Does dreaming about your ex mean they miss you?

If we dream about our ex, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are missing us. Firstly, we must ask ourselves if our former partner in the dream is not simply a representation of ourselves. Even if this explanation may seem surprising, our ex represents a part of ourselves with which we have connected and which tends to make us nostalgic. Very often, the dream must be taken as a whole, meaning we must consider the context, and the way the breakup happened... In short, here, it’s likely that both partners are missing and reminiscing about what they had and what they have now lost.

Biblical meaning of dreaming about your ex 😇

According to the Bible, if you have been dreaming about your ex, then there are unresolved feelings of anger or hurt with your ex-lover. The end of a breakup aids the healing process, but that doesn't always mean it's possible. You may need to accept that you might never get the answers or closure you seek in this part of your life.

How is that so? Well, it's natural to want to know why things ended the way they did. You might wonder what you could have done differently, or feel like you didn't deserve to be treated that way. It's normal to feel these things, but don't let them consume you.

Remember that God is in control. As Psalms 34:18 says, "The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." He knows what you're going through, and He will help you heal. What's important is to choose to handle these emotions in a healthy way. Otherwise, negative feelings and emotional baggage could continue to worsen and cause problems in your future relationships.

Susan Taylor’s insights: The Universe speaks to us

The universe sends us messages regularly, but it is not always easy to decipher them or even to know how to spot them, as they are sometimes so discreet. If you have questions about your future, if you need answers, don't hesitate to make an appointment with one of our psychics. They will enlighten you about your future with great attention.

I have been in a relationship for 9 years now and am happy and have adjusted. Sometimes though I dream about my husband I was married to for 27 years. We had many ups and downs , I loved him but he was a gambler and eventually an alcoholic. He died by his own hand and I was told he would have killed me to. Why do I dream some good and some bad things when I dream about him on occasion. A lot of what you say is true and I still after 10 years see a psychiatrist.
