I think it’s pretty clear what’s going on here – you’re feeling threatened by your boyfriend’s ex!
This is a totally normal way to feel, especially if you’ve been hurt in the past. Here are a few things that could cause insecurities like that:
It might not be easy, but the only way to deal with a recurring dream like this is to address the problem. Tell your boyfriend that you’ve been having these dreams, and tell him why you think this might be.
What you need to remember is that your boyfriend hasn’t left you for his ex-girlfriend – it was only a dream, so don’t get paranoid or accuse your man of something he’s not guilty of!
If you explain to your boyfriend exactly how you feel, then he’ll probably do his best to reassure you that it won’t happen. You don’t want to come across as paranoid, though, so be careful not to start throwing accusations around!

- Your boyfriend left his ex to be with you, and you’re now worried he’ll go back to her.
- Your boyfriend has cheated on you before.
- One of your ex-boyfriends cheated on you.
- You’re worried that your boyfriend was happier with his ex.
- Your boyfriend has been talking to his ex a lot recently.
- You love your boyfriend and you're worried about losing him.
