Thread: Frustrated with my Dreams

you should never use your dreams as an escape from reality.... this will only cause you disappointment. the dream world is not the real world and the only way to get over this is to learn to accept that.

sorry, i dont mean to sound rude. you could try going to lucid, do a RC everytime you see your ex

While I completely agree with minilee, you probably think about him, the breakup,etc. You need to get him off of your mind if don't want to have dreams about him. I would suggest meditating, I do it every night before bed and works great for clearing your mind and inducing lucids! Just try it look up some techniques you think you could do, trust me it helps a ton!

He keeps appearing in my dreams and it's nothing bad at all but when I wake up I'm sad because I know it's just a dream and the things in my dreams aren't really happening. What to do?

Sorry to say, but we all have some painful things we would rather not be reminded of in dreams. But what's in your mind it's gonna be reflected in your dreams. Best advice would be to make peace with your waking life situation so it doesn't bother you that much. But even then, your ex is part of your life and as such will most likely permamently be in your dreams.

And also sorry to say, that without sad, we would not know happy. Unfortunatelly, there is sadness all around. It's just one of the emotions. It's up to you, if you let it influence you in a bad way.
