Have you ever had one of those dreams at any point in your life where you meet your absolute love of your life. You may have sheltered her(can be a him too! For now on its a she, because i am a straight male.) from a storm of some sort. You may have picked up her books if she dropped them, etc. In my dream i sheltered her from a storm or something, i can't quite remember what I was sheltering her from because i was focusing more on her. She went and laid down on my bed and fell asleep. She was beautiful and kind in every way. She was apparently from my school in the dream because when i woke up (I slept too, in another room) she was gone, and when I went to school that day I was asking if people knew someone named ..... ...... Yeah, i don't even remember what her name was in the dream, like I said, i was focusing less on details and more on her. They said they knew her and she was a daughter of a teacher.  The thing about these kinds of dreams is they make me incredibly sad once i wake up. They make me sad because I met the love of my life in that dream and once i woke up i realize that's it, all it was was a dream. I was so blinded by that dream that i rushed to my computer to look up the name on Facebook that i barely even remembered to find nothing. This mystical ghost girl had stole my heart in a dream and it affected me even in real life. Have you guys ever had a dream like this? If so, can you tell me(us?) some details of that dream and if it actually affected you upon waking up? P.S. I understand there's already a thread dedicated to dreams, but i want my dream and the dreams of people who comment solely to be on this topic because i'm curious in this.

Edit: I'm going to put this in the main post and also my recent post on here. What i mean by True Love, is not that you are destined by pure nature to be with this person, but that you yourself believe this is the only person you would ever imagine wanting to be with, as in she/he/(it?) is the best thing you could ever imagine you'd ever want.

If you don't have a honest reply then don't reply at all bud.

Yes. I used to have a recurring dream about a specific girl as a kid. In the dream we were both adults, and the dream was generally fairly similar. We were going through a rather complicated set of time/space travel situations that ended up with us parting company. Over the years I had the dream in various levels of lucidity, and I made it various degrees of distance through the dream. The flow of events in the dream was flexible to a degree and it eventually got to the point that because I knew how the dream worked I was taking shortcuts to overcome obstacles and reunite with her. Kind of like Groundhog Day, in a way.

Dream was recurring through childhood, then I stopped having it for years and forgot about it. Then had it again once as an adult, and never again. Tend to assume that I missed the action in real life that would have allowed us to be together in this lifetime.

My advice is to always remember it and keep an eye open. One day you might meet a girl and when the two of you make eye contact you will both feel recognition on some level. You'll both know that you both recognize each other. And either you'll dismiss it and do nothing, or you'll take action.

"I missed out on the love of my life" is much weightier than "I made a fool of myself to a stranger."

asking if people knew someone named

The name given in the dream might not necessarily be the name she wears this time around. It might be. But I'd advise against assuming that it must be.

I read about my first boyfriend in an old school newspaper four years before I met him, then had recurring dreams about him comforting and taking care of me for the next four years.  It wasn't that I knew this was all the same guy until I met him, just a particular feeling.  My mom and I both just knew when we finally met that my time with him would be life-changing.

Then he abused me to the point of my going insane.  He was a sociopath.

Whoop-de-dip.  I don't think I believe in that sort of stuff anymore.

Well, in my dreams I once fell in love with a girl that tried to kill me. Its all sorts of different scenarios but they are pretty cool when they last. When i wake up im kinda sad but I forget the dreams often and stop caring, until a different dream. This might sound odd, but in winter last year I felt romantic and heartbroken as fuck, even though no one ever broke my heart. I felt lonely and had this kind of dreams every night basically. Now I still feel lonely, though not as much, even though I have friends I can hang out with. There is a lot of girls in my class but they seem pretty shallow (maybe because of the people they hang out with?) and they are all interested in older guys. Once upon a time there was a nice and clever girl I tried hard to date but she was like "no" from the very beginning, though we have become quite good friends and im okay with that. Since then i haven't really done anything to get a girlfriend. And damn... I begin to feel lonely again...

Yeah i forget about these dreams (they are recurring to a point, maybe once a year) a couple days after have them. Usually detail by detail, like I'll forget a specific detail in the dream like her name for instance, until i have no recollection of it at all besides little notes. They affect me for about 2 hours after i wake up where i'm extremely depressed and lonely because of my failure in the dream.

Dreams? Only hold memories and possibilities. Dreams are a means to forget.

[LordBucket]

Dreams are a means to forget.

Dreams are what your higher self one step up is doing. Sort of like what you're thinking isn't what your physical body is doing. And what your physical body is doing isn't what the chemical processes in your cells are doing.

Pay attention to all of you. Ignoring an injury is a good way to re-injure yourself. You can be injured in more ways than just cuts and bruises.

[Leafsnail]

Nope.

[kaijyuu]

I actually had a dream of going on a date with the person who is now my fiancee roughly 4 years before we actually did go out.

It's romantic, but eh, I doubt any mysticism was involved.

[LordBucket]

It's romantic, but eh, I doubt any mysticism was involved.

Who said anything about mysticism? Observe your hands, your arms, your chest. Your body has a certain character to it. Now observe the sensations you feel throughout your body. They have a certain character. Observe your mental internal monologue. It has a certain character. Now think of any time you've felt strong emotion. That too, has a certain and distinct character.

All of these aspects of you are are still "you" even though they're very observably completely different in character from one another. Dreams are just another part of you. You wouldn't call it "mystical" if you saw a youtube video of a kitten and felt dawwww! because of it. That feeling is not your physical body, but it's nevertheless real.

If your body hurts, there's probably a reason for it. If your heart aches, there's probably a reason for it. If your mind is restless, there's probably a reason. And if you have a dream that distresses you there's probably a reason. Listen to your dreams just like you'd "listen" if your knee hurt when you walk on it.

There's no meaning to be concerned about the content of one's dreams. It is, at worst, demonstrating things that you are already worried about and that you already know you are worried about because you've been worrying about them. There's no great meaning that can be discerned from them, just what's already going on in one's head.

I've had dreams about plenty of people. Just about everyone I know. Even when I had a big crush, I never, ever dreamed of her.

[ggamer]

I've had daydreams about a girl before. Met her on the bus for one act play, when we performed in albany. It was the damndest thing, I started talking to her about some random thing (music, IIRC), and then we just kept talking, and talking, and talking...

After the bus all I could think about were those big brown eyes... To be frank, it was the first time I had looked at a girl with a more romantic desire, instead of just sexual desire. With most girls it's like "dohoho shieeet i'd tap that" but with this girl I was just like "I want to.. shit, I just want to talk to you, and sit with you, and just experience you." She was the watergirl for our football team, so one away game I went back with her and talked to her. We sat for two hours (we were playing in south georgia) talking and listening to music.

I'm considering asking her out for coffee or a movie or whatever once school gets back in, I never get to see her during the day. Whenever we do see each other, it's a shy glance or two, and a few jokes.
