Hello! I posted yesterday under a smiliar title, “Dreaming about the same person for years.” So if you want the backstory on all this, please look up that post 
. I was encouraged by another member to post some dreams. This will be another long post.
Since 2012 I have been dreaming continuously about a person I had feelings for. We no longer speak. I recorded a lot of them in my journal, then I began to record them in my email from my phone. I was having them so frequently at one point that I wanted to record it as soon as I woke up so I wouldn’t forget the details.
I thought I had written them all down, but I didn’t. There are few entries of me mentioning how often I dream about him and how I didn’t write some down hoping it would make them stop. I counted all the recorded ones and this is the number of times the same person (Luis) appears in my dreams over the years.
2012 - Only one recorded
2013 - 8
2014 - 8
2015 - 28
2016 - 10
2017 - 12
I’ve never counted them before, and I’m actually pretty disturbed at how many times he’s appeared. I’m not surprised by 2015 being so frequent, cuz that’s the year I stopped speaking to Luis.
Here are a few dreams that stood out. I changed the names and location of our job at the time, but everything else is exactly as I dreamed it. If you have heard of a situation like mine, or have any input, please share!
2013
I dreamed I was at work getting lunch. I was on my phone and Luis was behind me. I ignored him and he came closer to hug me and he wouldn’t let go even though I wanted him to. I looked in the mirror and my hair is curly and turns straight. Later on I came home and see Luis at my house laughing and joking with my family, but I’m really confused by it.
2014
ADDED DREAMS
I’m sitting down at an outdoor food court eating. I’m wearing a bright red dress and I see Luis sitting across the way with two girls. He gets up to go to the trash and I duck behind a plant so he doesn’t see me. I just didn’t want him to see me, but he looked sad. I got up to leave with my bike and my mom walking beside me. I start having second thoughts about not talking to him, and at the last minute I decide to go back. Before I do, I went to the mirror to fix my hair. It was all over my head and messy. I couldn’t figure out where I was going at first and it started to get dark soon, but I knew I wasn’t far away from where I was. My mom gets upset, asks why I wanted to leave and where I was going. I said, “I was just going to say hi to a friend.” But she continued to attack me.
2nd ADDED DREAM
I’m sitting in a booth with Luis and another girl. I’m sitting on the same side as him while the other girl sits across. She passes Luis a skirt and asks him to fix the sowing in the bottom. The skirt was black and he tried his best to fix it. I wondered how he knew about things like that, but I didn’t say anything. Another girl comes up and starts yelling at Luis, because he couldn’t fix something correctly for her. He doesn’t say anything. The girl grabs a fork and threatens to stab him with it. I get upset and tell her to leave him alone. In the middle of it I think to myself, “Why am I doing this for him? He would never do this for me?” Suddenly he says to the girl, “I’m going to end up going to jail over you.” I panicked because I didn’t want him to throw away his life over a girl. He and I stand up from the booth and the girl starts to swing the fork. I’m standing in front of Luis as the fork lunges toward me. He grabs me from behind and pulls me back away from the fork. I thought, “So, I guess he would protect me when the time comes.”
Mom calls and tells me that my college degree doesn’t count. I have to redo my last year of high school, because I got two C’s. I said, “But a C is a passing grade.” She Said, “Not anymore. The criteria has changed.” So I went back to my high school to register for classes. I walked around the hallway for the first six periods and on the 7th is when I went to class. I ran into Amy (current friend from high school) and told her I had to redo my senior year. She told me that the room I was looking for was around the corner, room 283. I walked in and tried to hide from people I recognized. The room was a science room, a subject I have always been bad at. I asked God to help me get through the homework. The assignment was to put together a battery. Luis was sitting next to me and someone asked if there were partners in the class. I said no. The person pointed to me and Luis and said, “You two should be partners. You’d work well together.” Neither of us wanted to hear what he had to say. Suddenly the lights when out and we were told to go to the next room and get flashlights. I knew there wasn’t enough for everyone so I got one quick. As soon as I sat down, God immediately showed me how to put the battery together and it worked. I showed the teacher and she told me to go to the next room for a final grade.
2014
I’m sitting at a table and at the table in front of me is Chris (old middle school classmate) and he’s talking to a girl I know. Behind me is Luis. I wanted Chris to talk to me so it would make Luis jealous. He did for a couple minutes and I could tell that Luis was curious. I had my journal with me, but it suddenly appeared on Luis’ desk. I didn’t trust to leave it there because of the dreams about him I had written in it. I reached back to move it and he put his hand on my hand. I looked at him and he didn’t say anything. We were just trying to read each other. On the floor was a bag of candy and I was looking for a lollipop. For some reason I had a sweat tooth. There was an average sized lollipop and a jumbo sized. I wanted to take the smaller, but God told me to take the bigger one even though I thought it was too big. When I took out the big one, the bag was emptied out by someone else and he (Luis I think) took out the smaller one. When he looked at it it was cracked and the gum inside was oozing out making me glad I didn’t take it. Luis stood up and was suddenly towering over me. He was much taller than I had known him to be.
2015 (I had these two dreams on the same night)
Suddenly I’m on the number 55 bus and I’m one seat away from Luis. I don’t know who got on first, but I kept quiet and didn’t look at him. I wanted to say “hey” or “here I am” but I didn’t. I wanted to see if he would notice me. He looks different. My hair was straight, in a bun and I was wearing a gray shirt. He had a bunch of grocery bags with him and he looked troubled. He kept putting his head down into his hands. The ride was almost over and I thought he was going to get off without noticing me. At the last minute he reaches out his hand, and I give him a friendly high five back. We never spoke. Then he gets off with his groceries and goes home.
I’m at the movies with my sister and brother-in-law. We were sitting in the back and I was in the last row behind them. The movie screen was over to my left and I could barely see it. I had an iPad open, I don’t know why because we were in a dark movie theate. A few seats over to my right, I see Luis and Lisa sitting together watching the movie. This time he didn’t pay attention to me. I sat forward and told my sister he was here. My sister told her husband and began saying Luis’ name very loud over and over. I asked her to be quiet so he wouldn’t hear her. Then she said that she dreamed about him too.
2016
I saw Luis coming out of Frank’s house (good friend of mine). I was trying to avoid him but he saw me anyway. He was wearing his work uniform and told me he was about to be a father soon. He didn’t say with who. I got the feeling that he was not at all happy to see me and had no real interest in talking to me even though he was. I said, “I never thought you and Lisa would be a couple.” He said, “Yea, well you never know how things will happen.”
2016
I dreamed I was at work and I got two voicemails from Luis. In the first he apologized to me for what Lisa did. He said, “You didn’t deserve to have a friend like her in your life.” I got a strong feeling that he was genuinely sorry. I thought it was strange that he was apologizing on her behalf instead of apologizing for himself. I texted my best friend to tell her. She said, “You never know how things may happen between the two of you.”
EDITED PORTION BELOW:
2017 Dreams - I was looking over them again, and there are a couple from this year that do stand out. These next three dreams were the longest. I had them a week apart in April.
I was with my mom riding around and then we stopped at a hotel for rest. I was on a mattress watching tv and Lisa was on a mattress across from me. I knew she saw me and wasn’t sure if I should leave or say something. Finally she sat up and came to my mattress and got under the covers. I thought, “is she really trying to pretend like nothing happened?”
Then we had some small talk for a bit. She told me Luis was abusive and got really upset if she didn’t do things the way he asked. I figured she said those things so I wouldn’t expect an apology from her. I don’t remember what else she said, but I couldn’t wait any longer and finally let her know how I felt. I said, “You lied to me. You betrayed my trust and made me think we were friends.” She looked so ashamed and said nothing. Malcolm came by (good friend of mine) and asked if I wanted to go out. I said yes, and when I went up to change my clothes Lisa was gone. I left the room and went downstairs to let out a little boy who kept sneaking into the hotel. When I went back, I could see that Lisa engraved some writing on the steps. They were concrete. It was a full apology about what she did and how she hurt me. I was surprised and felt bad for not seeing it earlier. I would have accepted her apology.
2017
I walked into a high school classroom. I knew I was not a student, but I went in to get Josephine and the twins (twin sisters I’ve known for years) who were students there. Luis was also there sitting in the first row wearing a bright orange shirt. He was staring and I knew he was looking, but I refused to look. He seemed like he wanted to talk to me so bad. The class was dismissed and we all went into the hallway. I tried to move to the other side of the crowd, so I was nowhere near Luis, but he still ended up behind me. I caught a glimpse of his face and could feel now badly he wanted to talk. I thought, “If he were still with Lisa, he would not even think about me. So why should I give him any attention?” I never acknowledged him. He went off into a different hallway looking so disappointment.
2017
I heard he was a security guard at a hotel. He was in a black suit with a burgundy shirt. I went to the lobby to get a pizza I ordered. Luis handed me the change, but it was way too much. He insisted I take it. Then he started telling me stories, some I had already heard before. “Did I tell you about the time I got a ticket in Ohio?” We laughed as he told the story. Then my friend (I don’t know who) came out and sat on the couch with us. Luis didn’t notice at first. I turned towards her and asked her to leave, but she couldn’t hear what I was saying. I was afraid that if he saw her, he wouldn’t continue opening up like he was.
He kept talking. I got so into the conversation that I grabbed his arm. He fell over on me. I said, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to do that. He laughed. At some point we both had to leave. We were walking down the street and it as daytime. I could see that he was trying to keep a close eye on me, but he also had a job to do.
September 2017
I dreamed I was in a car with Luis. He was driving. It was dark outside and raining. He said, “I really liked you, but then you turned on me. I never expected that. You pretended to be so nice.” I said, “You had feelings for Lisa the whole time and didn’t tell me. You should have been honest from day one.” We weren’t yelling, just talking. Then he began telling me about his new job.
So the last dream I had about him heavily revolves around my current job. If I edit that portion too much, the dream won’t make sense. As I was looking over it though, I can see a lot of meaning behind it.
