It’s almost a year and a half since my husband died but never once am I aware of having a dream about him or where he featured in a way I remember. What do others experience? I would
love to see a happy vision where he looked as I remember him.

It’s different for each of us. I think that sometimes we try and look for something hoping g to see a sign. Anything to make us feel better that our departed are still there. But the truth is they’ll let us know when we least expect it. I rekyits when we need it most. X

My husband of 33 years died totally unexpectedly three weeks ago. I can’t begin to describe the pain, terror, bitterness and loss.
While my days are total misery and I can barely function, I’m sleeping ok. And no nightmares which seems odd.
I dreamt of him for the first time yesterday night: totally bizarrely we were collecting fossils together from rocks. It was a calm dream, all was good. No idea what it means but I woke up feeling a bit closer to him.

Hi Jamie,
That sounds lovely. I would love a similar experience.

I just posted this on another topic, and then I saw yours:
Aren’t dreams cruel. I have been desperate to dream about my partner before he was in hospital but he is never in my dreams. Other family are but he’s never around. I have been staying at my father’s most of the week for a couple of months due to his illness. And last night I dreamt and I was thinking it is strange how I have been at my Dad’s all this time and my partner has never messaged me. And I was thinking I must ring him in the morning and check he’s ok, and was wondering if he’d left me, as he always messaged me when I was away. It was my first thought when I woke up - and then of course I realised why.

Oh buddy. It’s total s**t isn’t it.
Nothing anybody can say will help.
But I think we’re in a similar place and I’m sending you love.
One hours at a time.

That dream must have been sent specially for you. I think it’s lovely I do much would like that to happen to me. I know you had to realise that it wasn’t going to happen but it was just to have that moment again. Just the thought that it was still real and not this crappy nightmare we are all caught up in. X

But I have been so wanting to see him in a dream, when he was well, and he still wasn’t there. I was dreaming about his absence thinking it was for a different reason.

“Aren’t dreams cruel” a perfect description JLF12. Another thing to add to the list of emotions and feeling we experience for the first time when aching for our departed partners.
