Why are you popping into my dreams-again?

Hi to those who are reading this.

Before the dream, I had met this girl in college last year who left somewhat of a strong impression on me. I mean, she was absolutely beautiful. But unfortunately, I was very immature at the time toward my actions with her, and she wasn't the right one for me. Basically,we were both opposites. I can say somewhat that I was kinda in love with her so to speak, but have been pursuing others to replace her. Since then, I have tried to forget her altogether with some success until now.

I have had two recent dreams with only one I can fully remember. What really startles me is, I have been recently thinking of her, which I wish I didn't, and the dream is of events that actually happen minus maybe a small detail. Here is recollection of the recent dream I had of her from last night:

2nd rememberable recent Dream:I attend a school function party that she and her group are holding-participating in. We bump into each other and talk friendly, flirtiously. She has brown dyed hair, something she doesn't have in real life-she has black hair. Talking more, I do eventually muscle my way from some other guy trying to get at her, but I am the overall winner. We had fun that night (non-sexual),talking and whatnot.

Another day (the same dream), I bump into her while going to class. She ask me where my dorm is. She has asked this before. I realize what her intentions were but didn't act on them (She wanted to come over-but I never acted on it. I never invited). The dream is over. Both of these events happened in real life interactions with the girl.









Anyway, a part of me wishs that I didn't act so clueless and stupid to her, even going on to say I probably should have bed her. Realistically, I wanted to date her, but it was never going to happen. She wasn't right for me, nor was I right for her. I have been thinking about her off and on. I haven't seen/talk to her since December since she graduated and so did I. I even thought about looking her up on Facebook, but it would be pointless as to she never really reached out to me much except earlier on, before I noticed her intentions. Other than that, a part of me wishes that I never met her, and my friends also echo the same thing, saying she wasn't right for me,etc.

I really do wish I can push her out of my mind altogether. This has been bothering me that I can't forget her.

But what is puzzling me is why is she popping up into my dreams again? What exactly does this truly mean to dream of a girl I have really no interest/a shot with?

I'd say it's as simple as: you want her, she will pop into your dreams. Chances are your mind drifts to her as you fall asleep.
Someone wants a new dog, they will dream of a dog.
Someone wants a relationship, they will dream of relationships.
Someone wants to see this or that, they will dream of this and that.
If you want something bad enough, your dreams typically reflect that if you start having reoccurring ones about whatever it is you desire.
