Regrets?
Hello everyone! Is it normal to dream about a past relationship? I have been married now for 7 years and things have recently really started going down hill in the last year or so. My husband has been more controlling and is showing a-lot of signs of narcissistic personality disorder. He tells me who I can and can’t see and about a year ago had a big blow up over masking with my parents and at one point told me I need to choose between him and them and never talk with them again. I am close to my parents so that was not an option. Anyway, that went by now and things are still rough and very stressful. Unfortunately I have been dreaming about my ex boyfriend at least a couple times a week. We were 17 when I broke up with him and I’m 26 now. I broke up with him for things that seem so minor now because my husband has done them 10 times worse. In my dreams my ex boyfriend is so caring and kind. I feel like I’m going crazy. Does this happen to anyone else? I keep wishing I had never ended our relationship. Things feel like they would be so much easier.

You're going through a tough time right now, so it makes complete sense that you're thinking and or dreaming about past relationships. As you said, you're very stressed and things have been rough with your husband lately. Based off all what he's been doing, your ex boyfriend seems like such a saint. You yearn for that happiness that you felt when you were with him. And again, that's one hundred percent normal. I mean, if you're starving, why wouldn't you think about having a good meal? Lots of people go through this and I hear you. It doesn't seem normal but it is. Thank you for sharing that with us!
