I just recently had a dream about someone that I have seen a million times and have never had any kind of romantic feelings for. Then the other night I had a dream about him and now I can't get him out of my mind. I can't even remember the content of the dream, all I remember is that he was in it and now I can't stop thinking about him. He's not even someone I have ever spoken to. What does this mean?
Hi, and Welcome! That's happened to me before. One time I had a dream about a co-worker that before the dream I'd never given any thought to except as related to work. Then I had a rather erotic dream about him, after that I had a crush. He was married at the time, so I didn't act upon it. Another time I dreampt about a man I'd never seen before except in the dream. I felt an instant love that went beyond passion. It was very spiritual. Like nothing I'd experienced before. I think in cases like this is we fall in love with either falling in love, or there is something about the presence of the person in the dream that was representative of something else. What, I'm not exactly sure, not even in my case. Do you think you perhaps had a latent attraction to this person and are now just becoming aware of it?
It also depends on what the dream was about. If it was just a sexual dream, then it could just be your body getting a sexual release and mixing it up with you seeing or thinking about something non-sexual that reminded you of this person. If there was more to the dream than sex, or if it was about something other than sex, then it would depend what the dream was about.
I did not have an attration or any feelings for this person prior to my dream. And I don't remember anything in the dream being related to sex. I had another dream like this about 6 months ago. I dreamt that my ex-boyfriend was getting married. The next day I did some internet research and found out that sure enough he was getting married. Just still trying to figure out what these dreams mean.
