Meanings of Dreams?

Question

Let me set some back ground info for you. I'm engaged, have a beautiful, angelic wife to be, to wonderful kids, and my life couldnt be better. Lately I've been having some dreams which have slightly confused me. The first one was a few nights ago, in which I was cuddlin and kissin a girl, and it turned out to be one of my ex's. She is very attractive, and we havn't been an item for over 2 years. Today I had a similar dream, where I was with my ex and we started some kissin, which led to makin out. then I asked her what it would take for her to surrender to me, in respose to that she took her bra off and let me in her shirt. One of my friends said that the freudian conclusian would be the manifestation of represed sexual desires. But I want to know from someone that knows what their talking about. What do these dreams mean and what should i do about them?

Answer 1

I dreamed of kissing and fondling strange women. I do not think this is a sign of repressed sexual desires. I think something during our waking hours has made an impression on our sub conscious mind and when we are asleep our mind tries to resolve what is stored.
My father always would say " i will sleep on that" and the next day he usually had his problem resolved.
as you believe so shall you receive

There are many theories of why we dream. The one you mentioned above was the psychodynamic theory by Sigmund Freud. He believe that dreams where a way in which the id satisfies its desires. He also thought they were a window into the subconscious mainly the id. Modern psychoanalyst often called neo-Freud thought that he placed to much emphasis on sex. They now place more emphasis on the ego where as Freud placed emphasis on the id. In Freud's theory the superego replace unacceptable things with appropriate symbols.There is of course the theory that dreams are a way of allowing mankind to look into the spirit world. This theory is less than popular in the scientific community. There is also the review of the day theory. Which basically talks about how we review what happened during the day. There is also the activation synthesis theory which basically says dreams are a result of the firing of neurons in the brain. I am not sure what you should do about them those are just a few of the theories that are out there about how and why we dream.

To understand a dream, it’s helpful to keep in mind why and how we dream. When we sleep, the body and perception systems are shut down, but the brain remains active. The brain thinks about what has recently been most active during waking hours—experiences, thoughts and feelings accessed recently whether consciously or not. The brain is still active, so it works on this content, but not in a familiar, rational way. During sleep, this material is not related using input from the external real world, but rather by the brain connections already established in the cortex. So the story connectedness isn’t like everyday experience, but rather a strange, circuitous flow from one image to the next. So dreams aren’t magical messages to guide our life, but dream imagery is taken from everyday experiences, thoughts and feelings that matter most to us during our waking life. So it’s a mistake to apply standard symbol definitions, such as Freudian meanings. All you need to do is think about what kind of imagery it is and how it relates to your daily life.

So whether you do it consciously or unconsciously, you still think about your ex, probably because you're engaged and about to enter into a new married relationship. You may have some baggage from the past marriage, some regrets, a lack of closure.

This is a common thing. Very few divorces are smooth and happy for both parties. There is almost always "baggage." What should you do? Just accept this as a natural part of "getting over" a past relationship. Don't worry about it. Just keep on living in the present and looking to the future and giving 100% to your new partner, and 0% to the past ones. They're just dreams, Darlin'.

Answer 4

I think it has nothing to do with wanting your ex... I think it's more like "commitment issues". I'd just let them be as they are DREAMS. I believe our minds dream in order to deal with the issues we can't handle while were awake.

PS If I had a dime for all the men I had sexual type dreams about then I guess I'd be a little on the "trampy" side, which is a far cry for me as I've been married over 10 years and been faithful, well except for those dreams. ;)

Answer 5

It is very common for people to dream about ex-partners. Individuals that have been an important part of our lives continue to take up a part of our mind and heart. It is impossible to very dramatically shut the person out of thoughts and feelings. Just because the relationship ends does not mean that all is finished. As we go through relationships we learn and at times pick up "battle wounds." You will continue to dream about your ex until you "let go" of her on a very important level, or until you learned your lessons from that relationship. Either way, dreaming about your ex-romance does not predict future involvement. It may be wish-fulfillment, reliving memories, or working out old issues.

Answer 6

I have been interpreting dreams for some years now. There are three kinds of dreams you can have. One from God, one from the devil, and one from your own spirit. Dreams come from your spirit and they are given in a spirit language that's why people have trouble understanding their dreams. Dreams can be the result of things you come in contack with on a daily basis. Your spirit takes your daily experiences and translate them into a spirit language which is "symbolic". However, the dream you descibed sounds like it is from the devil. When the devil gives you a dream it is often filled with sexual lewdness, filth, violence, wickedness and fear.

Answer 7

that dream means that you want your ex.
