Do you dream about your ex often?
From what I remember I have only had about 4-5 dreams about my ex since our split in July. But this week I have had two. In one I went to pick up my son from the new girlfriends house. They were there and she was pumping milk to feed to my son and I went ballistic. Weird dream.
But in the one last night we were getting back together I think. I remember some kissing and a general happy feeling. I read somewhere on here that if you dream about someone it means they miss you. I'd like to believe that is true, but to me it makes more since that if you dream about someone it means you miss them.

Re: Do you dream about your ex often?
I had several dreams about the X when the separation/divorce was new, but as time went on the dreams were less frequent. I have been divorced for several years now and I can't remember the last time I had a dream about him.
ETA: And the dreams I had about him were not good. Most of them consisted of me walking into the room and he is sleeping with someone or making out with someone while we were at dinner and stuff like that.
Another ETA: When I had these dreams, I know for sure it wasn't because he missed me.
They see us rollin'...they be hatin'.
How could your subconscious possibly know whether or not your X misses you?
No, I don't dream about my XH. Ever.

Extremely rarely.
And I'm with the PP -- dreams don't mean anything. They're your subconscious farting. And that has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not someone else misses you.
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
I have them in spurts. None for a long time then 2 or 3 in a row. They are all nightmares about him attacking me... so yeah.
Ugh, yes! I've been dreaming about him a lot lately.
I really think you work things out in your dreams subconsciously and we always seem to be dealing with something dramatic in my dreams. Sometimes they're sex dreams too which suck!

Dude...totally this! There less frequent now, but still all just annoying!!!!
Not yet! The reason I say not yet is because stbxh is sure making it pretty easy for me to move on via his behavior.
However, I really was in love with him before the divorce talk came. I suspect I am still in the survival mode and maybe someday will miss some of the memories we shared. All I know is that I am not at that point and maybe never will but I am allowing myself to be open and providing myself all the time I need to all kinds of healings and the ups and downs this divorce process may pull up.
I'm sorry hun. Things get better. I am 4.5 months out from my break up and I can say that I do feel a lot better than I did in the beginning. I thought I would never get over the heart break but I am slowly healing.
