I keep having dreams about my ex-girlfriend, what does this mean?

Question

I've yet to take high school psychology, but i do know that your sub-conscience is responsible for your dreams or something like that.

Consciously i have accepted that she left me and moved on, but i keep having these dreams where she's still my girlfriend and now im starting to think about her more often because of this.

d**n, what does this mean? I really thought i got over her and i still do think that.

Answer 1

They mean you still have feelings for her.

Answer 2

zz1300 got it right on the nose.  You still have feelings for her.  Don't feel bad.  12 years later, I still dream about my first real girlfriend.  Oh, there have been plenty more since then, but she's the only one I dream about.

It'll probably never stop.

Answer 3

mabey you too will get back together.Or you had somthing on your mind befor you left and forgot it and now somthing is trying to remind you.

Answer 4

First of all, things and item or even people in dream do not necessarily mean what they appear to be.

Second, your ex girl friend was part of your life and it was a fact.  That stayed in your subconscious mind and sometime she can become symbol of things you are looking or.

If you are not into any relationship now, that girl in your dream may symbolize close relationship you are looking for.  In other words, you may be lonely at this moment. and dreaming of her may somehow reflects your need, whether it is physical  or emotional need, that is sort of a reminder of you in your life.

If you are currently in some relationship and wonder why your current girl friend does not replace your ex.  That simply because she was part of your life, the break up may also serve as alert. You may be telling  you that you don't want that happens  (break up) again subconsciously

Of course, last scenario is you may still have feeling for  her.

Whether or not you are into any relationship, the dream suggests that you are in need of close relationship right now.

Answer 5

Our hearts and brains are really strange things. Your dream is exactly what you think it is-you still have feelings for your ex girlfriend. I am of the opinion that we never get over our lost loves. As time goes on, their memories take up less and less of our waking and sleeping time and eventually the memories occupy a small place in our hearts that something (a trigger of some sort) or someone cause this memory to come back full force again and cause us to think and dream about this person that we loved. Right now it probably still hurts and there are no guarantees that it won't hurt in the future, but the hurt will be less searing and you will be able to think about her with less emotional ties. Good luck and I hope things settle down again.
