    Last night I dreamed of my ex (male) and it was quite a sexual dream too. I'm in no way attracted to him - or any other man for that matter - whatsoever anymore and definitely repulsed by the idea of intercourse with a man. So why would I dream about 1) my ex and 2) having a hot night with him? Could it be my mind's way of getting rid of the past and moving on (about time, I'd say!) or is there something else bothering me?

    maybe it could mean you either aren't completely over him yet, or you still harbor a very small amount of interest in men.

    other than that maybe it was just a really weird dream.

    The former would be a bit strange, but not impossible. We broke up 2 years ago already... I do think about the relationship a lot though and the way I was used (sexually and financially) and cheated on by him. So maybe it was haunting me and that's why I had the dream.

    I thought about this too and though I try to picture myself with a man, it always jumps back to me being (in a relationship) with a woman. Where the man would literally be replaced with a woman... So I don't know. It's all really weird for me right now. Maybe it's just a confusing time for me since my parents are finding it hard to accept my sexuality.

    Thank you for your reply :slight_smile:

    Dreams about sex with people often represent either that you want to (or do) feel closer to the person you are dreaming about, or that you either want to or have forgiven them for something.

    So, it probably just means that you don't want to carry around resentment towards him anymore.
