Oh wow, I could have written your post. Except my dreams are about my high school/college boyfriend. I was head over heels in love with him too. Then we somehow just grew apart and split up. But ALL the dreams revolve around me chosing him over the man I did marry. The dreams were quite frequent for a very long time, then not so frequent, but I still have them to this day. I used to tell my husband about the dreams, which was probably not so smart. I don't tell him anymore. Frankly, I enjoy the dreams as a little bit of romance, and leave it at that.

I can relate to this, except I've never told dh. He was my first and only love in jr. high, high school and first year college. The relationship ended badly. When I first married I saw him after 10 years. Then the last time I saw him was 20 years ago. What puzzles me about these dreams is even though I never really see him in them( more like a mental impression) I know we are there together and it feels comfortable. I always wake up feeling relaxed and happy with an overall sense of well being. Why? He was not a nice guy! I used to really worry about it and what it meant but through the years I've learned to live with it and just go with the good feeling and restful night's sleep it gives me. It doesn't bother me enough to seek therapy.

@Spinach30,

Your case is quite interesting and I understand your anxiety. Do not panic we cannot crontrol our unconscious mind. I sometimes dream that I am single however I have a fantastic husband or many of us I am sure dream about our exams while we were in College even that we did not graduate despite the fact that we are working and have a degree🌻Just relax and if anything happens keep us posted.
