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

It could mean that you still love them or that they did something bad to you during the relationship and you are scared of it happening again

Dreams are a complicated concept. From my understanding they don't necessarily mean anything specific about your past but it could just mean you are still working on getting over your past so your mind is working on it even while you are asleep. It's okay, and I wouldn't let that be something that gets you down. You're working on processing things so don't beat yourself up and continue working on yourself and you will be pleasantly surprised :)

Honestly it could mean a whole lot of things. It all depends on the dream you have. But since you're having both it could just mean memories. The good and the bad you went through together. Maybe it's because he's around you or there is someone around you that reminds you of him. So memories are flowing back to you. You block it out during the day when your conscious but when your asleep you can't block it out because it just comes out.

I think it means that deep down inside, you still miss them or you haven't completely let go of them yet. Part of you is still holding onto the idea of them because maybe you have no one else to turn to.

You probably still have feeling for him, which is totally normal, but part of you knows that he he isn't a good person for you. He is your ex and you're having bad dreams about, which leads me to think that you should avoid him even if you still may have feeling for him.

Dreams are not something we can control, studies said that the brain tend to dream to make itself live in situations you are not able to live in real life like being in love with him like the old days or make you get rid of bad feelings when it is about nightmare, it is a way for your brain to express bad feelings and a way of defense ..

It's hard to tell, it may be a sign of you missing them. Personally when this happens I feel that it's my mind being unfiltered, since I don't let myself miss them or think about them when I'm awake, my dreams take over and show me what I hide while being in control of my mind.

this could have several meanings .. either spiritually which means he's either thinking or dreaming about you too.. or he's stuck in your head and he's influenced by your mood. if your happy or normal you might dream happy dreams about him . if your sad you could dream sad dreams about him.

When having dreams about your ex it's showing that they are a memory in your mind. Whether it be a good or bad one. From personal experiences I used to dream about my ex. Mostly good because I was dreaming of things I wish I had got to do with him but that bad were things like when he broke up with me. It just means that you're remembering the time you both had together and that you could possibly miss him/ her.

Memories are a part of moving on. You two have a bitter-sweet history and there's no harm in recollecting those once in a while but rather than dwelling too much over the things that are best meant for past, derive the influence to move on to better things from such dreams. Remember, there must be a reason you two called it off and its probably time to wake up from the dream.
