So I've always been a fan of dreaming since I was a kid. Now last night I had a dream where I had completely fallen in love with a girl I don't think I know or have even seen. The feeling of love was so overwhelming I forgot I was even dreaming. When I woke up I was completely heart broken. Now the next twist is that I have a girlfriend who I do love very much. It's all so.. Just unreal It's been playing at my mind all day I can't even think. So I turned my mind to research as I always do just learning more and more about dreams and as it turns out I'm not the only one who's experienced this heartbreak. I've had lucid dreams controlled and not. I've studied symbolism in dreams from native American to Egyptian I've never stumbled upon anything about legitimately falling in love and feeling the heart break almost like in the past they didn't record it from the pain and sorrow it brought along. I'm happy I found this forum though and can share my experiences and learn and study from others as well. Hello real world.
