Heartbreak
Broken heart, Heartbroken, Being heartbroken
Waking up with an ache after a dream of heartbreak can feel very real. These dreams often come while you're still sorting through a loss: a relationship, a friendship or a hope that didn't work out. Your mind replays the feeling so you can take it in a little at a time. Heartbreak in a dream isn't always about a person; it can be for a lost dream, a place you had to leave or a pet you miss. If you cried in the dream, part of the hurt may be finding its way out.
