What does it mean when you dream about someone? 🤔

Although psychologists’ interpretations of dreams vary, research indicates that most people believe their dreams provide meaningful insight into themselves and their world1 and have deep meaning. Dreams represent a collection of memories or images that float across your mind during waking hours2 and reflect parts of your life. Your brain draws attention to specific details as it tries to piece the larger picture together, including the people you encounter daily, resulting in dreams.

i do not like this guy but u dreamed about him twice during summer break. i don’t remember where i was in the dream but i know it was probably in a mall or at school . i don’t know why i was dreaming about him. he is funny and nice and we are friends but i don’t have his contact info so i miss him. honestly i miss everyone in my school. maybe i was just missing him?

I searched a lot and came here.. Today only i saw a dream . Though i don't usually remember my dreams and infact i don't get dreams . But today i saw someone!! He was a new admission to our class . I dont know how to express it. I had never seen that person in my life and in my whole dream only he was there. I do remember that we shared a good bond and in short time he became my really good friend. And like we literally fell for each other. Since then, I just can't stop thinking about him.
(Idk who that guy represented but just a small mention that yesterday i saw my ex crush/bf. We ended everything without a closure, and like we are still ghosting each other.)

I just don't know what this dream even mean and honestly now I'm just fantasising about that guy whom I've never seen, met or even don't know his name!!
And this thing only is driving me crazy!

I dreamt 2 times now about my male classmate who moved back to his place. On our last year as classmates, he actually told me he dreamt of me. Weird thing is, I don't really like him and this was really random that i'd suddenly subconsciously think of his face. Did my brain just loose track of stranger's faces and used his?

I dream about my ex crush like once or twice a month. I just had one last night. They range from him hating me, to him loving me, and to us just being friends. The dream I had last night was about us texting. But lemme explain our background..

So I’m still a young teen, and 4 years ago, i went to a camp. I was in a group with this guy (my soon to be crush) and i didn’t think much of him. He was kind of rude and didn’t do anything in the project.. but later that year, in 3rd grade, i entered my classroom and saw him again. Idk what was different but I started to grow more and more obsessed with him. I would take every chance to get closer with him and his friends, but i was also rlly shy. Im honestly embarrassed of my past self because i was a bit of a pick me girl. This was also my first year of public school, all the rest i was homeschooled so I never had a real friend and didn’t really know how to act. Also, when me and his friends were lining up for the bus they would ALWAYS ask me if I had a crush on him, and I would always say no. (I was very obvious tho) Anyways, a little bit after school ended, he reached out to me on a social game called Roblox. (Yes, ROBLOX lol) we were friends on there, and one day he randomly joined my game when i was with my friend. HE STARTED FLIRTING WITH ME- and i was blushing so hard. We continued to chat away from my friend and i gave him my number/email. Then on messages, he continued to flirt with me and question me if I had a crush on him in school. I had actually asked my favorite aunt who was like a second mom to me if I should confess my feelings, and she said yes. So i replied, “yeah- but i still do-“ or smth like that 😅 keep in mind I was like 10 and wasn’t allowed to date. From then on we would face time all the time, text all day, and he would be angry if I couldn’t FaceTime 😭😳😳 anyways, i would always ask him like every other day, “do you like me” and he wouldn’t say no, or yes.. he would always say it in PERCENTAGES. like some examples of what he said are, “i like you 2%..” or, “i like you 60%” and the next day it would be “i like you 10 percent” and i would be devastated. I would cry every time he said that. We had a fight one time and he said something on the lines of, “this is why i don’t like you. Your dramatic and you overreact.” And that broke my tiny heart.. We would have tiny fights, and he would continue on with the percentages thing, and i would cry. Then one day my iPad broke, and i didn’t want to throw it away so I kept it for like 6 months because i knew I would get an android tablet and not be able to text him. So one day I had to throw it away cuz i got a new iPad, and i told him to text me on text now. He did a few times, but would always delete the app and leave me on delivered. I would always forget about him, and then he would text me again.. and then all my feelings come back.. the last time he texted me was when I was in the hospital. I remember he didn’t believe me so I had to send a picture for proof.. and idk I thought it was rlly caring he checked in with me and then all the feelings came back. When I was released from the hospital they left again tho LMAO. That was the end of our adventures, i got a new tablet shortly after, deleted text now, and unfriended him on Roblox. There’s a few details but i prolly forgot. Also, after all of this I used to think he was so manipulative, but i don’t know now. I think I was in the wrong as well, i rushed things and was rlly annoying.

+ he’s in one of 7 classes that i have so I see him a little but he doesn’t Interact with me anymore.

Okay now i can tell you about my dream last night..
it was us texting like regular, and i didnt know whether to say sorry,
Or explain things. I noticed I kept deleting my msgs and didn’t know what to say.
It felt so real at first..
