My boyfriend broke up with me about 2 weeks ago and it is still very heartbreaking for me. I've never really dreamt about him though. 4 or 5 days ago both me and my ex went to the same party. He hung out with me almost the entire time, and he flirted with me quite a bit. To the point where I think he still has feelings for me, which made me happy. Ever since the party, for the past 4 nights, I've had almost the same dream about him. The first night I dreamt that me and him were walking together and he started to hold my hand, but not like totally holding it, just touching it. Then we'd look at each other for a long time and smile. In the dream I thought "Maybe this means he likes me again." Behind us was one of the girl's/our friend who was also at the party, and I looked back at her and she nodded, like "aw you guys are back together" and I smiled. It felt SOO real. The next night I dreamt that we were in the car together, and he was again slowly grabbing my hand, but not completely like we did as a couple. Just touching it as if like "I shouldn't be holding your hand since we're not together but I want to.." type thing. The next night I dreamt that he texted me a few times, and one of the texts asked if we should to get back together. I could perfectly visualize the text how it was in my dream. Then last night I dreamt that we were under water, LOL.. and that he was again, slowly grabbing/touching my hand and flirting by putting his arm around me for a second. But again, it wasn't like we were a couple where we'd hold hands and walk, in the dreams we knew we weren't dating anymore yet he was beginning to hold my hand and beginning to hug me and stuff. The things we were doing were the same in each dream, but the setting was different in each. What do these dreams mean?
well maybe since he flirted with you at the party but didn't quite tell you how he feels or you didn't get back together your subconscious shows it by having him touch your hand but not quite hold it. Almost like a tease, he's there, but not quite
The dream is recurring under different conditions, each of these represent a part of your life that he has affected or helped develop in your relationship. Walking: Moving forward in life. Car: Freedom, independence, decisiveness, control over your life (if you can control the car). Texting: Communication skills. Water: Deep feelings, the "rebirth" when the child becomes adult, the awakening of sexuality. You should allow yourself to keep everything he has given you in your relationship and accept the sides of your personality that he has helped you build. You could try to mentally give him a "goodbye gift" or even irl if you are giving him a birthday gift anyway or something then take your time to find something personal, don't let him know you are doing that, this has to do with you, not him.
