What do certain dreams mean?

Reoccurring dreams about an ex bf from 6years ago who I have no feeling for at all. What does this mean?

• I keep having reoccuring dreams about my ex boyfriend. we were together for almost two years and we have been broken up for 6 years. It took me a year to get over him bc he was my first love, but when I did get over him it was great! I was young and it wasnt a healthy relationship. I realized how bad it was and how happy I was to not be in a relationship with him after I got over him. I met the love of my life (and now husband) two years later. I realized what love really is the moment we started dating. My husband is my everything and so much more. I love him more than anyone could understand. There is nothing that could stop me from loving him. We have been together for 4.5 years and married for almost a year. He treats me like every woman deserves to be treated. I am so lucky to have him. Now to the dreams.. Over the past two years or so I have random dreams about my ex. In some dreams we are still dating and acting normal.. in others I know I am with my husband but I am seeing my ex behind his back and feeling bad about it bc I know I love my husband. I have dreams where I kiss him and tell him I want to be with him.. but I also love my husband. The last dream I had about him I hate the most.. I had a dream that I had sex with my ex and he wasnt wearing a condom.. mid way through I felt horrible about it and stopped it bc I love my husband and didnt want to cheat on him. In my dream I thought I was pregnant by my ex but I was just going to tell my husband it was his. I have no feelings for my ex at all and I am so thankful it didnt work out for us.. my life would have been horrible if it did. I would never cheat on my husband with anyone. He is my bestfriend.. my everything. We want a child together, but I have systemic lupus and the drs arent sure if I can have a child.. and if I could it wouldnt be safe for me or the baby. I dont know if this has anything to do with it. I just want to stop having dreams about my ex.. they always feels so real.. and when I wake up from it I always feel guilty even though I know it would never happen in reality. Can someone tell me why I am having these dreams?

• Answer:

  It could be that your subconscious is playing around with an inner thought, one that says: that you would rather hurt your ex by not being able to have a child, than with your husband who you love so much that you wouldn't want to hurt him.
