Why do i keep dreaming about my ex?

I have seen lots of people talking about dreams... which I hadn't encountered, and I am a very vivid dreamer.
Well last night they hit me. All night I dreamt about him breaking up with me. each time I woke up and went back to sleep it was a different location, in a different way, the same heartbreak. So vivid, his face so clear. Its haunting. I hope its means I have progressed in my healing. I don't want those dreams again.

reminding myself that a dream wasn't dragging me backward, even when it felt so real. i'd wake up sad, but i stopped treating it like it meant i'd lost all my progress.

when you woke up, did you miss HIM most, or was it the feeling of being left all over again? that answer surprised me when i finally admitted it to myself.

i had a stretch where every night my brain replayed the breakup in a different version, and i'd wake up feeling like it had JUST happened again. it eased up eventually, but wow those nights were brutal.
