Angel, I know you are upset now but calm down and seriously consider these questions. When you dreamt just before a death before was your dream specifically about the person who died? Was it specifically about that person dying? If yes, was there anything you could have done to prevent the person from dying...warnings, getting help, etc?
I truly believe considering the answers to these questions will point you in a direction to follow. Do not allow panic to lead you. Also, know you have the good wishes and prayers of MOST of your readers behind you.

Hi Angel,
These dreams must be difficult for you.
They may appear as if you can see into the future, and you may have even asked yourself at times if your dreams could be causing someone's death. If you haven't, that's great, but if you have, here's something else to think about:
The dreams you are concerned with are only about death.
You didn't mention that you dreamed of any good events in the future: birthday parties, diplomas gained, happy occasions.
If your dreams were really just a 'window' into the future, you would see ALL events, not just about death.
My conclusion therefore is that it is highly likely that you OWN subconscious mind is concerned with the questions of death and dying, and that it is giving you scenarios of other people dying so you can 'digest' your feelings about that.
I have had a similar encounter with dreams, many years ago, but still fresh in my mind. They would occur several times a week and always left me terrified. They were about dark shadows wanting to consume my soul.
I was a bible-believing Christian then, and I would pray (in my dreams), commanding these 'demons' "in the name of Jesus" to go away. Sometimes it worked, sometimes they would come closer, and I would wake up bathed in sweat.
One night, I simply got tired of fighting. I thought that if GOD was willing to let me be consumed by demons, I wouldn't have a chance anyway, so I let go.
I was rushed into a deep, black hole, expecting my total annihilation.
However, as I passed into the darkness, I experienced extreme peace. The dreams never returned after that.
Acceptance, therefore, was my key to peace.
Everyone dies. I will, and you will. Fighting that thought will bring you unhappiness and conflict.
Acceptance will bring you peace.
I am no longer a bible-believing Christian as I have learned a few things they don't tell you from the pulpit. Still, there is a lot of wisdom in the bible when it is read intelligently, and still, there is Peace in Acceptance.

There is nothing you can do about it. I too have the same types of dreams. Sometimes I dont know whats real and what I might have dreamt. I have things happen while I am wide awake too that can only be explained by me because people are not open to that sixth sense. Sometimes your dreams are a mixed up version of the happenings of the day, your sights, sounds, worries, thoughts and are justthat...your mind going over the day and getting it all jumbled up so you wake up and thing your whacko. Try thinking of a problem you have, or a person you miss before going to sleep the answer will come to you in your dreams and the person you miss will too. try it ...trust me

Your dreams are meant to protect you from devastation as you are meant for something more. They may seem confusing and you may wonder why you get them but it is not for you to know right now. Many people dream of impending death and they learn how best to cope with it so they can be of comfort to others around them - as you grow your dreams may grow to include other events like births and marriages. You may want to consider reading a book on grieving and loss to help you cope with the deaths you have suffered and understand their are 2 types of death portrayed by dreams actual death and an end to something - either way be strong be prepared and if you are of the belief that prayer can help - pray for the comfort of yourself and those around you.

i've taken some university courses about this sort of thing. when i was about your age i was in the same phase. honestly dreams mean nothing. when your dreaming about something its just your brain tying things together about what you see and experience through the day or the days before, and your imaginations. if you want these dreams to go away take an optimistic view of life. death is just a part of life everyone goes through regardless of how they died or your relations to them could be a mom, dad, brother, sister etc. the next time someone close to you dies just be strong about it. realizing that death exists in the world is just you moving from your adolescent phase to your adult phase.

I would go to a phychologist.Not that you are crazy or anything.But a professional phychologist will be able to sort these things out and he/she will tell you why these dreams happen to you things like that.Unless there is a professional phychologist here to answer your question,I don't think anyone will be able to help you..at least not on here.Don't worry,everything will be alright =)

You can't stop your dreams, but you can tell your boyfriend about them. Ask him if anyone in his family is ill. If so, encourage him to spend some time with that relative. Just in case!

i hope this doesn't sound insensitive, but maybe it's not your boyfriend's death you are predicting, but rather one of his family members. tell him how much you love him and hope for the best. good luck
