Question: what does it mean when you dream about your recent ex?
Answer: 8. When you dream about a recent ex. “If you dream about a more recent ex, one that you would like to have back, then that's you wishing—it's a wish-fulfillment dream,” says Loewenberg. Basically, your subconscious is living out the situation it desires—maybe your ex is apologizing or fighting to get you back.
