When I learned of my brother’s illness two years ago, I began dreaming about and having visits from a man I dated back when I was 18, who passed away. In the dreams he comforted me, and we were both so happy again. I knew in the back of my mind that I was 50 years old now, but in the dream, he was still 19. The dreams/visits are always happy. I am very sensitive psychically, and I have seen this man in my home, can smell his shampoo and cologne, and can feel him literally holding me while I sleep. When my brother passed, the dreams and visits continued. Am I losing my mind?
Hello Pam,
I’m very sorry you lost your brother. And you’re certainly not losing your mind by thinking you’re being comforted by your deceased friend. Actually, it sounds like you have a friend in the afterlife who remembers your time together and loves you still. Although the dreams might be just wishful thinking for someone to comfort you, I believe the visitations are real and that you sense his presence. Sometimes when we’re distressed, especially if a death is involved, a loved one from the other side will appear to us, usually through a dream, to let us know we’re not alone and that death does not sever the ties of love.
One thing to consider, though. You indicated you’re a Cancer, a sign known to be strongly connected to the past. It’s important that you stay involved with life through your activities, goals and the people you care about. As you heal from the loss of your brother, the visits from your friend may cease, but know that he’s still connected to you, and that you’ll meet up again someday.
Sweet dreams,
Cortney

I just woke up from a dream I had about my late boyfriend of 12years. He had a drug problem and overdosed this past May. I talked to him the night before and would like (if possible what time he did pass) we were fighting before he died and he moved out 2months before he passed he had his own 1bedroom but we never ended up splitting up we were soulmates even tho we weren’t living together. What haunts me is he told me days before he passed that he needed help and I didnt want to be the “bad apple” and tell his parents. I’ve cried everyday since. His funeral (june 8th)was day before my birthday. So about an hour ago I had a dream I was in some house we shared together and he was away on his way back,I had some random man taking a shower in our place and I yelled out “what ru doing Chris(my dead boyfriend) is coming,Chris is coming” the man left and Chris came in looking dead(I know strange,it was him tho) and i held his checks and said “you look so rough babe” he didn’t reply he was concentrated on doing his drugs i told him i don’t do it and you shouldn’t either he still didnt reply. We sat down at the table across from each other and he told me something AND I CANT REMEMBER for the life of me…I’ve been thinking and thinking what he told me but I simply cant remember. *please help me I’m crying daily really hard and it’s been 6months and I feel sad and a bit guilty. I had 3 seizures since he passed and my right lung collapsed I was in the hospital for 1month,one night there I heard a man call my name “elizabeth” I opened my eyes from that not sure who that was. I’ll stop now it’s too long (sorry) I’m home now getting better. Please help me thanks❤
dreamed about deceased ex being in bed naked w/me with back turned & i kissing him on upper arm. This has me so bewildered bc this man has been gone for more than 20 years and we didnt end on good terms. I have a daughter with him & i have been single since bc of the pain he caused me. please explain what this means bc im not trusting any guys at this time in my life. Ive learned my lesson the hard way
I was previously engaged but my fiance took his life 7 years ago. The first year I dreamed about him constantly and felt him with me often. As time went on those moment are far and in between. Lately I have been dreaming of him regularly always the same scenario and always the same time of night. I dream I am standing on a street corner in an unfamiliar neighborhood and he walks up and on site i forget he has passed but for some reason I ask him if this time he will stay. He says no that he cant and its like losing him all over again. He continues to by telling me that I have to pay attention that everything will be ok because he will never leave me. when I ask what’s wrong or whats happening he says, He can’t tell me I have to pay attention. The part I find most strange is that we are on the same street with the same houses and people going about the same things each time the only differences are that we are either in the same 1950’s light blue and white convertible or we are walking. Is this some kind of a warning?
my kids father was killed 8 years ago when i was 3 months pregnant with our baby boy. i’ve been dreaming him for a while the 1st dream i had of him he seems upset at me and told me that i didn’t go check him to make sure he was alright. i’m not sure what he meant by that. i also dreamed him another time telling me to meet him at the local neighborhood pool hall. then mayb one year later on my birthday dream him hugging me and telling me everything was ok that was in 2011. i recently dream him again in this time it seemed so strange cause he kept telling me he wasn’t dead and will take care of me and my kids. scary because i know in reality he’s gone. what could this mean

My same sex partner of 7 years passed away at the start of nov 2012,
I keep dreaming of him and it feels so real and comforts me!
Last night I dreamt that we were together holding hands wish was held so tightly! He told me he loves me and we had a normal conversation about things we would have when he was a alive, he even asked me for a smoke! Is this really my lover spending time with me or is it just my mind?
HELLO,
MY NAME IS NANCY AND MY CHILDRENS FATHER PASSED AWAY ABOUT SIX YEARS AGO. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD ABOUT A HANDFUL OF DREAMS ABOUT HIM OR AT LEAST HES PRESENT IN THE DREAM. WE NEVER REALLY SPEAK ITS MOSTLY AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF ONE ANOTHER AND THE ENCOUNTERS ARE VERY BRIEF. ONE THING I SHOULD STATE IS THAT WE FOUGHT ALOT BEFORE HE DIED AND FOR MOST OF OUR RELATIONSHIP. BEFORE HE DIED I WAS CONVINCED THE MAN HATED ME. WE HAD BEEN TOGETHER FOR ALMOST SEVEN YEARS. WE DONT FIGHT IN THESE DREAMS OR EVEN SPEAK ITS MORE LIKE HEY WHATS UP.
I DONT KNOW WHAT THESE DREAMS MEAN AND I WISH HE WOULD SAY SOMETHING TO ME, LET ME KNOW WHY HES THERE. IF U CAN HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHY I TEND TO DREAM WITH HIM FROM TIME TO TIME IT WOULD HELP A WHOLE LOT. I HAVE LOST ALOT OF PEOPLE IN MY LIFE TIME AND I NEVER DREAM ABOUT THEM, NOT EVEN MY MOTHER. NEED TO KNOW WHY HIM.
SINCERLY,
NANCY
P.S.
IM A GEMINI IF IT HELPS.
