Do you think people we see in our dreams are out there somewhere?

Question

If you've never seen someone, and they appear in a dream over and over...are they a character of your subconsious? Your opinions?

Answer 1

You see hundreds of faces each day.. in market, at college, office etc

But your outer memory only remembers few but that doesnt mean that all other faces that u saw gets lost. In fact they are stored in our deep memory somewhere.

We wont know it but our sub-conscious minds does.

In dreams, if you see a strange face then it could either be a single face stored by your sub-conscious mind or a fused face of several faces that you really remember.

Answer 2

I think the characters we see in our sub conscience really do exist out there. People do look the same and I believe most people we dream of are real in the world even if we never met them. Accept monsters of myth and all night mares =)

Answer 3

well, sometimes they might be from ur past which u have forgotten or ppl u have yet to meet. but if u dreamt it more than 3 times, usually its a sign meaning u are fated to meet, or sth like dat.

Answer 4

idk thats a good question...i hope theyre out there somewhere..like someone that i looked at when i was looking for someone else and didnt realize it or something lol idk thats what i think.........but then again sometimes they represent something else...like you see a friend youve known forever but theyre representing security or something

Answer 5

Yes. It sometimes means that maybe you're going to meet that person.

Answer 6

I feel that when someone looks super familiar it's because I have dreamt them up before.

Answer 7

In most cases they are real.

Answer 8

Maybe. Think about it. Everyday your are bombarded with images TV, and basically anywhere you go.  Even if it's just for a quick glance your subconscious might store. Also there are so many people in the world. Chances are that if you make a person up that looks and acts like that you might actually meet a person like that.  

Answer 9

I wish I knew .I have wondered that myself. I think thats when you see someone and think...I know them from somewhere....but you don't remember them exactly cause it was a dream!
