It's been almost five years since we broke up. He was the first guy I dated and felt strongly about. I haven't thought about him or talked about him in the last few years.
Today, I had a dream about receiving a text fro him. I woke up before seeing what happened next and if I responded to his text. I woke up feeling a bit disturbed and I've been trying to ignore the dream. I know that I've blocked him on every platform I could think of, so there's no way in hell he could get a hold of me. I'm not friends with any of his mutuals. I've also moved two cities away and work at another company entirely.
In April, I blocked the final form communication I held on to with the guy. I've dated other men who were better in so many ways than he was. They were patient, and never complained about spending on me. In addition, they were extremely encouraging. In addition, I've accomplished so much after the breakup.
I'm a little upset at myself and having a "wtf moment" for thinking about him. It makes me wonder if I've unconsciously thought about him without even knowing it.
At my highest point in life, why the fuck does he have to come back into my life as fucking dream? 😔
I'm reading all these articles and they're saying shit like I want him back, or he wants me back, and that it's tied to cosmic relations. I'm tired of these articles I'm never dating someone like him ever again...FDS please give it to me straight!
Is this normal?
Do you dream about your exes even when they treated you badly?
Usually, vivid dreams like this signify something for me, and I just can't shake this feeling that he might come back into my life and give me problems.
Dreams usually just your subconscious mind working things out. They don't mean much. I've had maybe 4 dreams mean something in 48 years of life, and they weren't about my Ex. One was about a murder. Plus, you don't want him back. Try not to take dreams too seriously unless it feels like a warning for your safety.
It's interesting that you say you're at a high point in your life - I've noticed that things like this sometimes happen just when I'm reaching a new high point and I've come to see these events as one of life's little tests. So, reaffirm your commitment to your future and carry right on. Don't sabotage yourself or backtrack on your own progress by reading meaning into it that isn't there. You're doing well and those articles are talking complete garbage because there is no such thing as 'cosmic relations.'
Okay well what I do know is that any time a woman asks Google a dating-related question, there will be a million posts/blogs/threads/articles available to gaslight you and basically tell you to lower your standards, crawl back to a man and hand out free labour to be used. So please do not trust most of these articles, especially if they come from a male-owned "women's" magazine like Cosmo. It's owned by a giant corporation with a billionaire family at the top of it.
