I have dreams about my ex girlfriend every now and then and they always make me wake up thinking, "What the heck was that?" Last night I had a very vivid lucid dream. I was at some house and I ran into her and we talked for a long time. Her hair was colored in a way that I love. I felt immense joy when I ran into her and I could feel joy from her too. The dream warped and we were at a different house where she was playing video games and walked out into the room I was in and told me to come play this game with her. So I did. When we got into the room we were about to play when I thought to myself "I just want to hold her.." so I grabbed ahold of her and we just stood there holding each other saying things back and forth. In my dream that felt like at least 10 minutes, we just stood there in each others arms. She was squeezing me tight and I could feel her holding me. The dream then warped again, we were in the same room but I was sitting down and she was leaning over close to my face saying "I don't love you, but you were the one that taught me how to love. I thank you for that." i tried to say something back but she cut me off and said the same thing over and over. I sat there thinking of things to say, but I couldn't come up with anything good. And she just kept saying it. At that point she was almost in an aura, her hair was blowing out like it does in those movies where a guy sees a girl and is just completely in love. That little slow motion cut scene. She was radiating beauty. After that I woke up in my dream and I was home all alone. I did some things trying to contact her but I couldn't. Then I actually woke up.

She was the one girl I dated that I never did anything very sexual with. I went into a strange period in my life at that time and I broke up with her telling her, one day we will get back together. And I meant it. But, she has a new man now, and in the past when I tried to rekindle what was between us it didn't work. She IS the one girl I wish I wouldn't have let go. Can anyone decipher my dream a little. I somewhat already understand it, but man..What she said in my dream has been resonating in my head all day today.

This dream could be a wish to be back with her, or it could be your hopes for a relationship like this with someone new in the future.

When she says "You were the one that taught me how to love", maybe it is really you saying that she is the one who taught you how to love.

So the dream is saying that even though your experience with her didn't end well, she has given you the capacity to love someone else in the future, so you have hope for a better, long-lasting relationship.
