Most nights I dream about my partner who passed away Christmas Day. At the beginning the dreams were him breaking up with me..which yes he has but not in that way..then they have been love dreams, hugging, kissing, sexual. Last night he went out got drunk slept with someone else I woke up with palpations. All these dreams make me feel shit all day as he's not there next to me when I wake up to know they were all just a dream if that makes sense.
Friday nights, I relive that night, as Sue went on a Friday/Saturday. It was really intense last night.
I had a dream early on in my loss, where someone was guiding me through a dark haunted forest. I like yo think it was Sue,telling me she was still here for me.
I have few dreams with Sue and I never get to hold her.
Hi!
I can relate to that. I have been having dreams about my late husband a lot recently. In one I dreamed that he had actually come back and it was words like `I'm back sorry I was away so long` and like you I have had dreams that he has either cheated on me or I have cheated on him and we end up arguing. Some are so vivid and feel so real and then I wake up and realise that it was just a dream. I am two years in next Monday (23rd) from losing him to bowel cancer well it will actually be this coming Friday he passed (20th but was the 23rd two years ago) seems to be a thing about Fridays. Some dreams even involve some other relatives are in my dreams too some who have also passed away my dad, my mum, etc. One dream I had my dad and my husband were in it together this makes me wonder if that is some kind of sign that they are both watching over us all down here. My best wishes to you moving forwards.
Vicky.
