The one that got away

Date: 1/10/2022

In my dream, I was waiting at a bus stop. I don’t know all of the circumstances, but it felt like the bus stop was near my job, and the job was in my old neighborhood where I grew up. I think a stranger was asking about a particular ex-boyfriend who should have been “the one,” but I let him get away. The stranger walked away, came back and asked more questions. There were other people around, but I don’t think they were paying any attention to our conversation…or at least it appeared that way. Suddenly that ex-boyfriend appeared. One of his friends was with him. The ex said he had a “feeling” I was nearby, but didn’t realize how close he was. I was noticing how grown up he looked, because I haven’t seen him in a few decades. Dream ends.
