Fighting with a dream ex can mean that “something or someone in your current life is bringing out similar feelings you felt during that relationship with your ex.”
Dreams About Getting Back Together With An Ex
This dream does not necessarily mean that you secretly want to try again with the person. Your dream of reuniting can be based on real-life longing, but it also “may be triggered by some major change in your current relationship and how far you have come from those past relationships,” DreamMoods explains. This is why so many brides-to-be dream of exes right before their weddings.
Dreams About Missing Your Ex
Yes, dreaming about how you want to get back together with an ex sometimes does mean that you’re still carrying a torch for them. But it can also just mean that you miss having a partner and feel wanted.
Dreams Where Your Ex Is Missing You
Dreaming that an ex is still hung up on you can imply that “you ‘miss’ some aspect of that past relationship”… but alternatively, it could just mean that “you have moved on with your life.”
Dreams Where An Ex Gives You Advice
Why on earth is the dude who dumped you while you were shopping for Christmas decorations at Target showing up in your dreams and giving you advice about your current partner? That’s just your “subconscious … telling you not to repeat the same mistakes that you had made with this ex.”
Dreams About Seeing An Ancient Ex
Dreaming of the person who frenched you at your middle school’s Winter Wonderland dance, then broke up with you during pre-algebra the next day? Dreaming of an ex from childhood can mean that you want to “recapture the excitement, freedom, and vitality of youth,” either in your current relationship or just in your overall life, DreamMoods says.
Dreams About Seeing Your Partner’s Ex
A dream about your current partner’s ex may mean that “you are comparing yourself to the ex.” Since dreams often draw from issues that preoccupy us while we’re awake, this one can probably be handled by attempting to come to terms with your feelings about your love’s old flame.
Dreams About Seeing Your Ex’s Family
An ex’s mother making a cameo in a dream can mean that you may still have some “unresolved issues” with your former love.
Dreams Where Your Ex Is Sick
If you dream that you nursed an ex back to health, or even if you simply dream that they’re in a hospital, you may be “still dealing with the breakup.”
