hermitcrab Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Broke up with emotionally abusive ex about 5 weeks ago, NC, and I'm not even the type of person who dreams much at all, but I do now since the breakup, and he's in my dreams. We are just doing random stuff in the dreams like hanging out at his house with him and some of his family members. Or, I am out in public and running into him. In all these dreams where I run into him, I don't speak to him if he speaks to me, or just literally push him away if he gets too close. I don't long to get back with him because the feelings aren't there anymore and he was terrible for me and hurt me too many times, but these constant dreams are annoying and make me sad/frustrated. This has never happened to me before with an ex, has anyone else experienced this? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Terfo Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Living on my own without her and I am dreaming of her often. I think its normal to dream about them because they were such a big part of our lives and now dealing with the loss (for good or bad reasons, i still consider it a loss) Perhaps in time the dreams will stop and new better dreams can come in, once you begin to let go of the hurt. good luck, 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Satu Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) It's good that you're having these dreams. It's your subconscious processing things. It will come to a stop when its complete. Take care. Edited November 30, 2016 by Satu 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Author hermitcrab Posted December 3, 2016 Author Share Posted December 3, 2016 You guys are probably right. I hate this though. I just want to forget him. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It will take a lot of suffering and a lot of patience, but you will eventually get there. Believe us, when we all say it because we've all been there. Take it easy and take care of yourself. Have a good day/night! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
