Why I keep drraming about a man that was never my boyfriend but we dated, while being in a relationship?

I keep having these weird dreams about that guy. Such as we are back together, or that he is apologising for lost connection and regretting the fact that we aren’t together. I used to go on dates with him before I met my boyfriend. So it was pretty much 2,5 years ago. I don’t even know how it ended because we weren’t a couple, and there wasn’t any kind of closure. These dreams makes me very uncomfortable because I am in relationship.

At the moment my current relationship is having some difficulties. And I noticed that when we are fighting, these dreams keep popping in my head. Then I wake up and just can’t understand what’s going on. It’s getting annoying.

Dreams are a way for your subconscious brain to deal with problems. Even moreso when you are constantly bottling them up. No you do not want to date that guy again. He's just an escape from the current situation because you are not dealing with it in reality. Maybe you're fighting over stupid things, or maybe this guy is not the right fit. But it has nothing to do with that guy from your dreams.
