i dreamt my ex boyfriend saying he couldn't stand the thought of me
Today i had a disturbing dream where my ex boyfriend whom we broke up with 3years ago was telling my friends he couldn't stand the thought of me. I woke up frantic. I am pretty sure am over him and am currently with a new flame, getting to know each other.
Is my subconscious trying to tell me something?

A lot of dreams play out on things in our subconscious. Maybe, because you are entering into a new relationship, your subconscious is running in the background, worrying about issues you might have had in the prior relationship. Maybe you were very hurt by the breakup and are worried that you might get hurt again, in this new relationship.
Dreams are very neat, in that they help you work through issues while you sleep that you may not have been aware of while awake. They don't necessarily mean what we think they mean, in that they aren't literal.
When my husband and I first met, we lived in a singlewide trailer. We were very poor, and that's what we could afford. We moved out of the trailer and into a home in 1998. A few years ago, we were going through a very rough patch in our marriage and I dreamed over and over that we had to go back to stay in our trailer (which has been long gone) while work was being done on our house. I realized that the trailer may not have been a mansion, but it was a place where my husband and I were truly happy in our marriage to each other. My subconscious was taking me there at night because I was so unhappy during the day. I wanted what we used to have. We did work it out and are happier than we have ever been. I also haven't dreamed about the trailer in 3 or 4 years now, since we worked out all of our issues.
The mind works in mysterious ways.

Hi there. Well, dreams are just dreams. Don't get too into them hon. If they were meant to act on, then I'd be Mrs. George Clooney. :>) However, yes. Your subconscious is probably still trying to work through the break up. Doesn't mean you should be with him. Or have any regrets about the break up. Really. I have been married for 15 years and together with my husband for 18. Long time. And once in a blue moon, I have a dream about something in the past. it's just a dream. Not relevant to my life. good luck with the new boyfriend.
