Is it normal to dream about an ex when happily married

I’m happily married and living the life I had only ever dreamed of. Last night I had a dream about an ex. This ex was from my teenage years and we haven’t seen each other in over 10 years. In my dream I went to visit him (we live in different countries) and there was sexual tension but nothing happened. I told him about my husband and baby and he told me about his girlfriend. We were just driving around talking for a while then I woke up. This has sparked curiosity about what ever happened to him so I tried looking him up. I can’t find him on any social media, and I don’t have any of his old contact information anymore. I should probably just leave the past in the past and leave it alone but I really want to know where he ended up. is it normal to have these dreams and have a hard time brushing it off? Btw I have no interest in ever being romantic with this guy ever again. We were really good friends but sexually not compatible.

    You can't control your dreams, but looking up past ex's is totally normal. I do it all the time out of curiosity, seeing what they're up to, how they look today, etc. No interest in pursuing something with them. Even if the whole thing becomes a bit excessive, don't worry about it. The feeling will pass.

    Yeah I've had those thoughts before about how an old gf of mine is doing now today.
