Is it normal to feel an emotional attachment to a dream?

I've since gotten over it but for a couple weeks or so I kept feeling sick about the fact that it was just a dream that I was feeling this strong emotional attachment for. The weirdest thing is, it was a seal in my dream that I loved (like a pet, not romantic).

    a pet seal? that's cute. :)
    i've had lots of dreams that made me happy, but also majorly disappointed that it wasn't real.

    Dreams have the ability to make you feel so many strong emotions, such as love, anger, hate etc. Sometimes you dream about something and dont understand why you felt that way about it. A few times Iv'e dreamt abouut being in love with a man, whom I didn't know, and my attatchment to him still remains strange, as I am fascinated by him. I never see what his face looks like either, I just know that I am deeply in love with him. Dreams are odd, and most of the time we dont understand them at all, so I'd say that this is completely normal.

    Ya that sounds about right. Too bad they're only dreams.
