So this story starts on Saturday when I was talking to a friend. She said something and I took it the wrong way, as I have an unfortunate tendency to do. After I apologised, told me that she was wasn't looking for an apology. The conversation ended not long after that, but I felt horribly guilty that I took it the wrong way. I messaged her on Sunday that I hated myself a little bit. She didn't see it or reply.

But early Monday morning I had this dream, where I rolled over in bed, checked my phone, and had a message from her which said "don't hate yourself, everything is ok." It felt so real and when I woke up, I really expected to see said message. But, it was a dream.

I had another early Wednesday morning; I saw she'd been online really late on Tuesday night and she normally goes to bed early so I was worried something was wrong. I had another one of these realistic dreams where she messaged be back and said she was ok and just couldn't sleep after getting home from work.

And I had a third last night where we didn't talk about anything in particular but her just reminding me she was still around (I have abandonment issues) and once again it was so realistic I thought it actually happened.
But it didn't.

So my question is, do these dreams mean anything? I mean, is it some sort of subconscious message reminding me that she's still around or something? Because the replies I got in the dream, that's what she'd actually say, she hates it when I'm down on myself.

So I guess what my question is, what do they mean?

You need to unplug from everything including TV and Radio, I know it sounds immpossible, but do it for 3 days.

It sounds like you are reassuring yourself, which is a very good thing.

It beats the dreams I have where my T hates me and abandons me. Those also feel ridiculously real, but I wake up and have to remind myself over and over that they're not.
