dreaming about dead ex boyfriend.

I had a dream that an ex that had been a prevous very good friend of mine before dating came back from the dead. In my dream him and his brother James called and were on their way down here to visit me and my family, everyone was so happy! I remember feeling so happy and nervous, and I kept looking out the window to see when they would arrive. When they did I ran out and gave him a big hug. He came in to visit with my mother and my sister and explained to us all his death had all been a big mix up and he hadnt ment to hurt us or be gone for so long. Then when he and his brother went to go home I left with them. I origionally was going to sleep in a different room from him but then this bad bad storm came and scared me so I snuck into bed with him where we cuddled and I explained to him how guilty I had felt for the way things had ended with us and how much I really loved him and how sad I had been the past few months thinking he was gone from me forever. He told me that he was not angry with me he understood why things ended the way they did and that he still loved me too, that he had never stopped and would always be there. We then talked about my plans to further my nursing career and my daughter and everything that had been going on with me and her father and how much drama was there with me and him till we fell asleep....which lead to my waking up...

any help with what this could mean? was he really trying to tell me he was there for me and forgave me for our past? I dont even know if it is considered lucid dreaming like I knew in the dream he had been dead but he came back...could I have dreamt it to feel better? any ideas would be helpful.

Strong sentimental fluctuations like pain,agony,guilt,enthusiasm,anxiety,ect
are suppressing the subconcious which reacts and projects strong sentiments.
