Is it normal i can't stop thinking about this girl?

I know you
I walked with you once upon a dream.
I know you
The gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam
Yes, I know it's true
that visions are seldom all they seem
But if I know you, I know what you'll do
You'll love me at once
the way you did once upon a dream

-"Sleeping Beauty"

Love dreams have cursed my sleep for ages and I have had enough of them to pick up on "patterns" that, I find, suggest certain things. I'm not saying I am the best candidate for telling you what's normal or how to interpret this dream but I'll give you my thoughts.

First of all, when it comes to love dreams, you can pretty much guarantee it's about someone you have already met. You may not realize it at first(I know I didn't several times), but you eventually will figure who it is in real life that is playing the character in your dream.

Also you should establish whether it is love or infatuation(a.k.a crush). In MY experience, when I can't recognize the girl in the dream and she doesn't play a big part in the dream(she's being shy and little to no interaction is being made), then it's a girl that I have not gotten familiar with yet or hung out with or talked much with in real life. And I would say that is likely the case in a lot of dreams like that. You don't have enough "data" on the person for you to make them up in your dream. Where as if you knew someone really well they would just show up as themselves in your dream...

and so in the first case, a girl whom you cannot recognize and has little interaction in the dream, I would say it leans towards a crush. You don't know this person well enough to call it love but you are definitely affectionate and interested. And a girl who of course is present in the dream as themselves might suggest something a little or a lot deeper than a crush.

One last thing to look out for is repeat dreams. You may have another dream soon that is similar to this one or even exactly the same. Once again in MY experience, this may mean that you actually come across this person a lot in real life but never make contact. Like a friend of a friend kind of distance. Maybe just seeing this person though triggers dreams or at least some deep thought.

I find it difficult to really "help" people decipher dreams other than tell them about my own experiences and the patterns that I have noticed. In my opinion, only the dreamer can decipher the dream. But sometimes people dream alike and that exchange of experience basically helps you realize what you already knew but just couldn't pinpoint.

As I always say, your brain knows more than you do.

Anyway I hope I helped in some way or another. Happy dreaming my friend.

okay this may sound weird but every night and in my daydreams i dream about a guy i know every detail on his face and his name.I have noticed that with my dreams they are usually long and detailed like a story in a book.Anyways,me and the guy in my dreams are boyfriend and girlfriend and i incorperate him in my everyday life like what we would do if he was real , but my dreams usually only last a week or so but this has been going on for about 2 months.And i feel like i can tell him anything and i dreamt that he dreams about me and i dream about him even though we have are own lifes.In my dreams,it's like were sharing/living in the same dream each night/day.Sometimes i think about what he would be doing right now and stuff.If this is crazy then please tell me because i think my dreams are like really good stories maybe it's because i want to be an author? If this thing sort of happens to you please reply.
I've also had dreams like the one i just told you but with a group of friends and i'm still dreaming about right now and last night i incorperated both dreams so my friends know about him......and everynight i dream about all of them meeting me in real life and stuff.

I had a friend that used to slap my face every time i thought of her and it helped a treat.

No, it's not normal to have any thought that never gets out of the mind, especially if it's there for years. That dream is a rude awakening to take an aspirin for such a headache in the morning, no wonder you have a thought obsession! On the other hand, it would be normal to meditate with some burning incense to think about something else!!

i had a dream one, that i was in the program barney, you know the one with the big purple dinosaur , well any ways me n barney were best friends n he introduced me to his other dinosaur friend her name was baby pop, n the moment we laid eyes on each other we knew that it was love at first sight . the next day me n baby pop had little dino babys, n then barney got jalouse n got his other friend 2pac to shoot me, n then i woke up, n from that day on i could never stop thinking of my love baby pop. i this normal

so you dreamt of a girl who is not a real girl, you fell in love with her, she is similar to a real girl you know and now you're thinking of and in love with her? now real question: is she mental or not?

Yes its normal.I cant stop thinking about my ex, and I always see her in my dreams.

Every person you see in your dreams you have seen somewhere in your life. You can't make people up even in your dreams.

If you really like this girl this is absolutely normal. Though i've been there before and eventually you get over it and or find someone else to obsess over.

Wait so is this a girl from a dream you had or is she real but ended up in your dream? Either way it is pretty normal to not be able to stop thinking about a girl you fell in love with :P.
