Lately, I have been having vivid dreams about my high school boyfriend, who broke up with me in 1975\u2014yes, that long ago! It was very painful for me, and over the last 25 years, I have had many rejection dreams about him: I can\u2019t get ahold of him, he can\u2019t hear me on the phone, he\u2019s supposed to meet me but he doesn\u2019t show up.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve always taken these dreams in stride. There were probably 6-7 years in there when I suffered several miscarriages that I didn\u2019t dream about him at all, perhaps because I had real things to worry about. Then the rejection dreams started again last year.<\/p>\n<p>Now, lately, the dreams have changed so that he is IN the dreams, and I can talk to him. In the dreams, I am thrilled to see him, and he pays attention to me. In last night\u2019s dream he and I were at my parent\u2019s home, my extended family was there, and so were my two boys. My husband didn\u2019t seem to be there.<\/p>\n<p>In the dream, the boyfriend and I aren\u2019t involved sexually or anything, but when I wake up I feel completely guilty that I have been dreaming of him, and in particular that I am so happy to see him in my dreams.<\/p>\n<p>This boyfriend lives in my parents\u2019 hometown. I haven\u2019t seen him for at least 12 years, we don\u2019t exchange xmas cards or anything, and we have no contact. Why in the world am I still dreaming about this guy? Is it because of unresolved issues of rejection? If so, what can I do to make these dreams go away?<\/p>\n<div align=\"right\">\u2014Alice, Age 44, Married, USA<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">For the interpretation of the dream, click<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/articles\/rejected-2\/\" id=\"998\" option=\"com_content\">here<\/a><br \/><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Back to list of<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/articles\/womens-dreams\/\" id=\"26\" option=\"com_content\">women&#8217;s dreams<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[3163,3122],"class_list":["post-35950","articles","type-articles","status-publish","hentry","category-marriage","category-womens-dreams-question"],"acf":{"article_id":"944"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles\/35950","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/articles"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35950"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35950"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
