What does it mean when you continually dream about someone from your past? I am tempted to find this person; however, it was my first crush from 15 years ago. I am now happily married with a baby!

I do the same thing.. the guy that I first loved all through school, I say now that when I am old and widowed I will find him.. But i just cherish the great memories I did have with that person. he is now married and has children as well as I do. I also dream of other relationships from the past that were not so good, and they come back to haunt me. I had asked a question on here on how do dreams relate to real life, meaning do we still have the feelings as we did then? Good luck and I guess we'll never know what they mean. If you do go look for him just remember that was 15 years ago, and dont lose what you have now things could be so different.

One main stream of thought for interpreting dreams says that you are representing some aspect of yourself through everything and every character in your dream.
So, I would suggest that you sit down and give this quality the attention that it desires of you. Get very still, and interview it in depth. Write down everything that comes to mind without judging if the thought is OK or something. There is a gift amidst the craziness just waiting for you to find it.
When you are dreaming, try to be involved or "lucid" enough to participate. See if you can change the pattern that the dream usually takes. For example, if you usually fall into his arms, relieved that you are going to be rescued, perhaps you would want to stand up to him and tell him that you can't depend on him any more, but that even though your life is really challenging at the present time, you are willing to learning to stand on your own, now (with the help of your husband).
When I was 21, I fell head over heels for a man who was a lot older that myself...and married. He was not available. Even if he were unmarried, I'll bet he would have never been emotionally available. I had reoccurring dreams like this for nearly 15 years. I certainly wondered if he were calling to me, and on several occasions tried to find him. Thankfully, I was unsuccessful, but even if I had, I know that would not have helped. I really only wanted the dreams to stop.
LOOK! I just wanted to move on!! I think I always wanted myself back from him. Over the years, the dreams followed some similar pattern -- "...go find a place for us, a different job, more money -- and then we'd be together..." but the deal always miserably fell through. After about 7 years of that muck, I shifted gears slightly, to always happen across him at an unexpected time or location, so I then would go on and on about how I always think of him and miss him so badly!
Enough!
I'll have to say that the best dream was when I once again caught him casually in bed with another woman and he ignored me. I turned to him and definitively said, "You know - I loved you way more then you deserved!"
And I walked off...and started loving myself.
That wasn't the last time I dreamed of him, but it certainly was the last time I fell for him. I did love him way more than he deserved, and now it was time to turn around and use all that love, energy, and undying devotion for myself and my family that was right in front of me.
Whatever was left over, I didn't need to fix, I just gave it to god, surrendered to God's healing Love, and asked to see the Truth about myself in all of this. And the clearer I am with this, the dreams have gone away.
The love you desire is right at your door.
Otherwise known as...
..."The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand (here and now)!!
I really hope this helps you. ;-]
Love and Light!

seven year itch? if you really love your child you will talk to your husband openly and honestly. from my experience, all women say they want a man that communicates, well women need to communicate too. that never seems to be factored into what a woman wants. to communicate back is not part of the deal.

DO U REALLY WANT TO MESS UP UR MARRIAGE FOR A DREAM. ITS NOT A BIG DEAL TO DREAM ABOUT SOMEBODY ELSE. BUT ACTING ON IT COULD BE REALLY DEVASTATING TO UR MARRIAGE AND LIFE. MABY IT IS THE ENEMY ATTACKING YOU TO MESS UP YOUR MARRIAGE.
