Though I am not a dream expert, from what almost everyone is saying, things like unresolved past, loneliness, constant discussion of the subject, etc can be the actual reason why you see your ex boyfriend in the dream.
Seeing your ex in your dream, to me, is not a bad sign. I think it’s a situation you have to help yourself get out from.
If you are wondering if it’s a bad omen or the likeliness that the both of you will get back together, hmm.
Some Reasons You Are Seeing Your Ex Boyfriend In The Dream
Some of the possible reasons you are seeing or you saw your ex in your dream could be as a result of the following
Recently Discussed About Your Ex
It is of no doubt that when you talk about something deeply, we end up getting connected to such things. It then locks up in our mind and becomes a qwasi part of us until we stop thinking/seeing/talking about it.
Think of it this way, someone who is always discussing or watching adult videos will definitely have it locked in their heart and such kind of people usually have dreams relating to the videos they watch.
The moment they start staying away from such kinds of videos, it won’t immediately move away from their subconsciousness. It takes time for them to start thinking freely without remembering anything relating to adult videos.
This is what happens when you recently talk about your ex boyfriend or girlfriend. If they have always been a subject matter of your discussions or thinking, their memories will always be there and of course, following you to your sleep.
So, they’ll start fading away when you stop to talk or think about them.
To wrap this section, what I am trying to say here is this, if you saw your ex boyfriend in your dream, think the reason is because you talked or thought about him a few hours to bed.
Unresolved Past
An unresolved past can be another reason why you saw/seeing your ex in your dream.
There was this lady that I know who left her boyfriend because she thought he was cheating on her by refusing to answer her call in a full day. Little did she know that throughout that day she called and his phone was off, he had a low battery and his mother was in the hospital.
When he finally got his phone back on, she slammed him with an “IT IS OVER” type of text message. He thought it was a joke until he came to her house meeting her with another man – she had already hooked up with a new guy.
Without having any reason to explain his ordeal, he quietly picked his few clothes and left.
The lady in one or the order learned the truth but before she could return to him and ask for mercy, he had already left the country.
She blamed herself for her actions. She lost a good man. And since then, she’s never stopped blaming herself for her actions.
Returning to our discussion, you may be see(ing) your ex boyfriend in your dream because both of you broke up on uncertain grounds.
Maybe, the basis for your separation was intangible and you sought ways to reconnect. Take your time and find out what exactly is going on.
Some Questions You Need To Ask Yourself
Are you still thinking about him? Did your start discussing him recently? Did your relationship end well? Are you sick? Did you see him recently?
So, if I must say, it is not a bad sign to see your ex in your dream. Too many things can be involved.
