My ex has had a dream about me last night.

It’s been almost 20 years since we last saw each other, probably 19.5 since we were last in touch, and he texted me today saying he didn’t know if I still had the same number but he hoped so because he had a dream about me last night and felt compelled to get in touch.

No big backstory. We dated for about 18 months in our late teens but drifted apart when I left on a gap year and didn’t want to do long distance. When I got back, he had found a job in London and moved so we kept in social media touch, but there was no big painful split. I met my now husband shortly after and we’re happily married so I have no desire to re-engage with a man from my past.

Nice to know I clearly left an impression 😁

Kind of curious to know what the dream was, though.

He is making up a story
Don't be drawn in
You cannot know what he is dreaming

Has he just divorced his wife? That's why my ex contacted me. I blocked him without replying.

Last I heard (from a mutual friend from uni), he divorced his second wife about five years ago so heaven knows what his status is now.

Just to be clear- I have no romantic interest in him (or any man, I’m lucky to have a very lovely husband and I would not be impressed if he was messaging an ex so I’m going to provide the same courtesy), but I’m a nosey cow and wonder what triggered the contact. I don’t think our relationship was be of those really impactful ones, for either of us.

Like @lovemetomybones said- 🐈 💀
