Hi cassienigh,

It’s very common to dream about an ex like that, in fact so much so that there's an entry in the Dream Dictionary for it:

It is very common for people to dream about ex-partners. Individuals that have been an important part of our lives continue to take up a part of our mind and heart. It is impossible to very dramatically shut the person out of thoughts and feelings. Just because the relationship ends does not mean that all is finished. As we go through relationships we learn and at times pick up "battle wounds." You will continue to dream about your ex-girlfriend or boyfriend until you "let go" of them on a very important level, or until you learned your lessons from that relationship. Either way, dreaming about your ex-romance does not predict future involvement. It may be wish-fulfilment, reliving memories, or working out old issues. Dreams are very rarely prophetic.

It doesn’t necessarily mean that you miss them or wish that you were back together. In some cases it might if the break up was recent, or you’ve met them again, but more often than not it’s just your subconscious using the imagery to signify something, possible something you feel is lacking. Not your ex but possibly whatever the main essence or feeling of the dream was. It could be more about the people watching you kissing and being happy, if you were, than the actual kissing itself. How do you think the people watching thought or felt about you in the dream?

thanks, that helped a lot... i think that i am kind of lacking something, like the connection that he and i shared. he isnt a recent ex, actually we dated 4 or 5 years ago. i still talk to him once in awhile on the internet and i saw him a few months back. i just found it weird that i would dream of him now. but i think its just because i might have been thinking about relationships in general lately. thank you.
