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.

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.

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.
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.
