Fwiw it’s been a decade plus since I dumped my first serious boyfriend and I still occasionally have dreams about him (and like you my response to this oh god no no no no). I know it’s disquieting but try not to let it get you down, brains are just fricken weird.

Thank you. That actually does make me feel a lot better. I know I still have some hang-ups about our relationship because of a lot of personal stuff I don’t really want to get into, but I almost felt like my own brain was trying to trick me into wanting him back or something. It’s irritating, but knowing that it happens to other people does help a lot.
