I still have dreams about my ex, sometimes they're good and sometimes they're bad. What does that mean?

It’s means you’re not over your ex and you are always thinking about them, so they appear in your dreams.

It means that they were fulfilling some unmet need of yours that hasn't yet been fulfilled or has been left leaking upon their departure.

That is a good question. The simple answer is I have no idea. Maybe something in your day reminded you of them... A lot of times that is what has happened to me.

It sounds like a normal part of the grief process. There is good and bad in every relationship, even the ones that have ended. It's natural for that to show up in our dreams as our minds and hearts process our past and help us heal for the future.

It means you haven't been able to move on completely from your ex and that you may have some things left in your heart.

Whether the dream is good or bad doesnt really change the fact that you two were once in a relationship. Good or bad dreams can happen with family members or friends. It just means that they have been on your mind. This can show that you miss being in that relationship or feeling wanted.

Honestly it probably doesnt mean much, we still dont fully understand why dreams happen, but sometimes we dream of people from our pasts for random reasons. If you are dreaming about them frequently it could suggest you miss them, but if you dont really have feelings about them anymore then it's probably just your brain choosing a random and familiar person to throw into your dream land.

It means you're very conflicted. I am also doing the same thing to myself. I'm at the stage where I need friends and doing other things. I only get that until school which is 2 more weeks. So, go have fun with people. Don't be alone. Being alone caused this!

It's quite simple. It means you didn't get over your ex and the break up. You still think about him/her, and maybe you feel something for him/her. The fact that you dreamt bad and good means you're confused about him/her, yourself and your emotions. You're lost in that confusion, you don't understand anything. I do not know how your relationship ended, its effects still haunt you in your dreams. I think when you're awake you don't think about the break up or him/her. However when you sleep your truly emotions come up as dreams. (I hope you understand.) You know, dreams have often meanings so you can start the understanding on that path and maybe, you'll figure out why do you have these dreams.

People who do a good job of managing emotions know that it's healthy to express their feelings — but that it matters how (and when) they express them. Because of this, they're able to react to situations in productive ways: They know they can choose the way they react instead of letting emotions influence them to do or say things they later regret. They have a sense of when it's best to speak out — and when it's better to wait before acting on, or reacting to, what they feel. They know that their reaction influences what happens next — including how other people respond to them and the way they feel about themselves.
