Other dreams with ex-love

To dream of an ex-love from adolescence

To dream of an ex-love from your teenage years means that you miss that time when the relationship happened. It could be that you are going through a time of need and fondly remember a very old relationship. Or it could be the way that relationship was and how you felt in it.

Usually, first loves or those of adolescence are quite remarkable because they are our first experiences. Your subconscious may be wanting to show you how happy you once were and the way you would like to be loved again. If you are already in a relationship, it may mean that you would like to be loved in a different way.

To dream of an ex-lover

To dream of an ex-lover has very similar meanings to an ex-love. As in the other case, if you have unresolved problems, this may reflect in your dreams.

It doesn't necessarily mean that you still like him and want to get back together, but just that that relationship is still reverberating inside you in some way. Whether it's unresolved things or fear of a new relationship.

To dream of ex-love's family

Dreams depend on the moment you are living. Dreaming about your ex's family can mean missing these people and the good times you had with them or it can be a desire that you have to get back with this ex.

If you argue during the dream, it means that you should leave these people and this story and look towards your future. Even if you liked them very much, it is time to leave it behind.

To dream about the current relationship of ex-love

To dream of your ex-love's current relationship may mean that you are feeling a little jealous or envious because you have "lost" a person you loved. Especially if there are still feelings for her. Another meaning is that you may, in your subconscious, feel bad that he has forgotten you and moved on with someone else.

Depending on how you feel about this person and your breakup, it may just mean that what you had and felt is over. If you are reassured by this dream, it just means that your heart is at peace to also go your way.

To dream of ex-love tells about past, present or future?

To dream of an ex-love is something that is related to you and your feelings for that person and the end of your relationship. You are still living in the past and need to resolve everything that is preventing you from moving forward.

Everything you learned and went through in the old relationship is valuable, no matter how painful the breakup may have been. The whole experience will be good life baggage for whatever comes after. Past, present, and future go together.

What happens in the past reflects in the present and in the future. And the way we deal with the events of the past in our present shape what that future will look like.

Therefore, when dreaming of situations related to ex-love, especially if it is recurrent, try to stop to analyze the feelings that you still have for this person and work on them, so that you can be happy and at peace, without these marks of the past.
