Thread: Love dreams

Yeah...it makes me feel the worst when it's an ex you really had feelings for, and in the dream you fall in love again...and then you wake up and realized it never happened...
Damn, I hate that..
xx

Yep, it sucks. It is also like that when you won a ton of money in a dream or something like that.

Wow, I had this happen this week. I was with someone from my past for whom I had (and still have) a lot of deep feelings. For a few days after the Dream I was stilll fighting with the emotions left over from the Dream. It's not a cool feeling. I've also had the ones of a stranger that I get to know and fall in love with, that's not cool either once awake, but it's still not as bad as having to deal with an ex all over again. True story.

I've never really had any strong emotion from a dream like this in awhile, I was lucid this morning though, and I actually was with this girl from one of my classes in this dream, she's like geeky in real life and I couldn't imagine liking her in real life anyway, so the feelings in the dream just wasn't there. all we did was like embrass and stuff, but it wasn't that exciting but still it was fun at the moment, because I've never had a GF in real life and it was like 'cool this must be what it feels like to have a gf' but I didn't feel much emotion, I don't think you can fall in love with anybody in a dream, it would have been nice if it were some other girl, and my tactile sense was lagging a bit so the feeling of her was blurry and distorted, but the visuals were very vivid.

But I know I can feel strong emotion because I had a dream about my crush once in which I had fairly good emotions.

But besides making you sad doesn't it feel motivating to beable to have these experiences in lucid dreams, I don't know about you guys, but it makes me much more happier about lucid dreams and their capibilitys.

I had a dream once I was sitting on a bench at the coffee shop and this girl came up to me and we were in love. I recognized the girl from waking life: an attractive European whom I had never talked to. I awoke with such feelings of love. I went down to the coffeeshop and sat on that bench and she drove up and parked, got out and introduced herself! We talked for a while and flirted a lot. But I was very amazed. I didn't tell her about my dream, I thought it would be cheesey. I never hooked up with her however I run into her a lot whenever I travel abroad and we always have that same connection that we had in the dream.
Other than that dream, I think those love dreams are the heart chakra opening and our mind projects an object of our love into our dream.

Damn, it does suck HARD. Also, like when you find something you've always wanted and your like "Yes! I finally got(insert object name's here). I cant wait to use it!" and then you wake up and your like "Where'd it go?"

yeah this has happened to me before it bummed the shit out of me because it felt so real and felt the the perfect girl for me too

I've never been in love so I don't have such dreams much, but I had one not long ago where a man was interested in me, and I felt the same...I felt rather down when I woke up and realized nobody ever felt that way about me.

Along similar lines, I once dreamed that I started to befriend a girl online who was intensely interested in the same subjects I am (I have not managed to find any kindred spirits whatsoever in eight years online, and only once in my entire life, and she lost interest and moved away long ago)...I was so miserable when I awoke and found she wasn't real! Such a letdown. I definitely have more of a social life in my dreams than in real life!

I once had a dream and some dude was my boyfriend. I have never seen him irl .. but I loved him in my dream.. the feelings between us were really strong. When I woke I was a bit gutted. I wanted him :[

lol

This happened to me last monday it felt amazing in the dream and i wish i had that feeling that i had in my dream more in real life, but i still feel somewhat sad/nostalgic over the whole thing

there is no use stewing over it, yeah it does suck i have experienced it, but you have to realize these people probably arent real/chances are you will never meet them in real life

I wake up pretty clear minded, but after a few minutes I start feeling regret that this dream wasn't real. It makes me sad sometimes.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA, I would tell you guys the story but its a doosy, and long. Anyway yeah
I've been having those dreams a bunch lately. The love experience/emotion in the dream is something someone in real life could never give you. Its actually quite sad. :,(

Hmm, I had a jealousy dream this morning that made me upset, it was really quite vivid, and my crush and her current bf were kissing repeatedly but she kept looking at me though, which made me slightly less upset but more upset because I could have been the one instead of him, it was really quite vivid and emotional. I don't really remember his face, but I remember her face being spot on.

Ouch man, ouch...

I know how that feels, I think we all do.

I usually sense quite an excitement about the whole thing, and it leaves me in a good attitude. I never saw any reason to be disappointed. After all, she is only a dream away. When I find myself in a dream and I think of her, all I have to do is turn the corner or open a door and there she is.

A dream 'fight' or "lover's spat' might be a real downer though. luckily I've never had the experience

Edit: ...And after thinking about them not being in real life, after the bad experiences I've had IRL, the 'dream barrier' gives me a strange peace of mind. Other people aren't worth getting ripped apart over, IMO

I've had quite alot of these. The thing that seems to make so frustrating to me is that they're far more movie style romantic. In a real relationship you always have those times when you just don't have anything to say or do. In a dream it all just strings together perfectly from start to finish; all the pointless stuff is cut out, making it even greater a slap in the face when you wake up.

Wow, I couldnt say it better my friend.

I guess I have a little different take on the subject. I tend to interpret dreams along Jungian lines. This means that (as a male) the feminine in dreams represents the subconscious, so that a 'love dream' represents a harmonious relationship between the conscious and subconscious aspects of my psyche. And that, my friend, IS something you can take back to the 'real' world.

Yup yup yup im still O so sad I had the dream last night and I want to dream it tonight! I want to see that mistery guy that keeps appearing in my dream and feel those emotions again. I hate waking up after those dreams its the worse when someone else wwakes you up though. I want to curse them out sooooooooooo much an try to go back to sleep but it never works!

I also had a dream in which I loved someone more than anything in the world. I don't remember the dream though, not a single trace of it remains in my memory, but I can still remember those feelings, I can still remember what I felt when I woke up and realized that it was all just a dream.

Yeah, I have the distinct feeling I've had dreams like that before, although I can't remember any. It really is a shitty feeling.

BEST AVATAR EVAR!!!!!!!!! Le(with double dottage)zen

Well, I hope it doesn't happen to me in the next month as my (beloved) girlfriend let me down...Some other time maybe....(or not)
