dreams about ex...please make them stop!!!

I can't take this anymore!!!  I've had FIVE dreams in the past week or so that have included my ex.  We were engaged right after HS and stayed together for 2 years, but it was too hard since he was in the military so we broke it off.  In the meantime, I met my current DH while in college and we never really talked after that.  He sent me a FB message about 2 weeks ago wanting to catch up, but I have yet to reply.  It's been almost 8 years since I've seen or talked to him and I don't want to reply because I just don't think it's a good idea.

So these dreams are just because of this message right??  and my hormones?? RIGHT????

  • I've heard it's fairly common to have dreams about old flames during pregnancy, and I have had them myself. No action was needed to make them begin so I wouldn't put direct blame on the message!

  • I've had a few of these too.  I felt bad at first but realized there's not much I can do about it so I just roll with them.  The last one made me feel pretty good, he was the one crying when I walked away.  (Oh the things I was I knew 7 years ago...)

  • It is your hormones I have had some odd dreams.  I haven't had any dreams about my ex, but I have had some really odd dreams about guys I went to high school with whom I barely talked, haven't seen in years, and have never had any feelings for.  I find it weird that my mind goes to those random guys.

    Good, now I can say that in my dreams the sex was just as good as I remember it to be.

    Yup, I'm a dream hussy.  I don't know why, I haven't thought of him like that in forever.  Denying it wont make it go away so I'm just owning it (and hoping they don't happen often).  The good thing is that the dreams seem to take place in the past so I'm not technically cheating in my dreams either.

  • Only one ex has been in my dreams.. Just randomly there. Not really sure why.
  • I've had dreams about *three* of my exes... and some of these dreams are not PG-13. I try not to feel too bad about it, since 1) I can't help it! 2) we're all married with families/in relationships, so it's completely ridiculous, 3) they're more like 'memory dreams' than current events (and as another poster says, that makes it not dream-cheating, right? lol)

  • I've been with DH for 5 years now, but I still dream with 2 of my ex boyfriends. One of them married a Brazilian famous singer so he is always on pictures on the gossip web sites. So everytime I see a picture of him during the day, it's certain that I will dream with him at night! The other ex I think it's because it was an unresolved situation. We broke up because I decided to attend college in the US and moved away from Brazil. I am sure we would end up married if I had stayed there. As far as pregnancy hormones, I have always dreamed with these 2 guys, so nothing strange to me.

  • I'm sure it's definitely because of the message. If I hear a song or see something that reminds me of an ex I usually dream about them. You just have to realize it's YOUR dream and no one else knows about it so there's no need to feel guilty. It happens to me a ton.

  • I take medicine for anxiety which already gives me crazy dreams to begin with. Add that to pregnancy hormones and my ability to sleep in until noon (teacher on summer break) and my dreams have been insane. Yesterday morning I woke up to one of those sex dreams (not sure who I was with but let's just say I was feeling very good when I woke up). Then a few hours later I woke up sobbing from a frustrating work dream. 
    Edited because I am an English teacher and that's what we do.

  • Wait, really? This is pregnancy related? Since about the time I became pregnant I have had SO many dreams about one past flame ... honestly I've had at least 10 dreams. At least! It's so bizarre.
