I had a dream my ex-husband was just a head. I don’t remember why he was here or what we talked about, but we were actually getting along, which is highly unusual.

From Lauri: To dream you are getting along with, or even dating or having sex with, a horrible ex typically indicates you have come to peace with the past. Has anything happened recently that has caused you to feel better about that relationship? He is a dismembered head, so that is a clue. Have you “cut off” contact with him or disengaged in some other way?
