Is it normal to have recurring dreams about a person i've never seen?

Is it normal to have recurring dreams about someone I've never seen in real life or on t.v.? It seems like I've made the person up. But, it seems this guy and I have some sort of meaning to each other. The dreams also involve time travel and me being older and in Victorian times. The first dreams started with him and I in modern times spending time together on a beach, or in a restaurant, laughing, chatting, holding hands. Then, one night, I was in a candlelit Victorian era room dressed in Victorian style bedclothes with my hair braided and I was much older. Someone handed me a newspaper. I looked at it and completely broke down crying, saying "my love, my love," in between sobs. Then the dream faded away. A later dream was set in modern times somewhere in a big city. I was in a taxi and he was chasing after me. I was yelling for the taxi to stop, but he wouldn't. I frantically rolled the window down and yelled for the man to help me. And yelled out "I love you!" to him. He caught up to me(anything can happen in dreams) and was beating on the side of the car and trying to hold on through the open window. We finally clutched hands, but the taxi sped off leaving my dream guy in the road. Then that dream faded away. A later dream I had seemed to be set in distant future times, but I was still young. This dream was sci-fi and futuristic looking. All I remember about this one is we were holding each others hands for dear life as we were being sucked into different vortexes or whatever. I'm crying and he looks frantic. Right before we're ripped from each others hands, he shouts to me "I'll be back for you! I promise!" I wake up as I'm being torn to molecules. That was the last dream I've had with him in it. That's been years ago, yet I could most definitely remember his face if I saw it. I can't forget it. I honestly think about it at some point every day. I would like some suggestions as to what these dreams could mean.

    I don't mean to be rude, but it's been proven that we can not dream of people we have not seen before. We only dream of faces or people that we've seen whether we remember them or not. We've seen tons of faces in our life time.
    So, perhaps you've seen him around and your subconscious mind remembers him simply because when you saw him, you wanted to get to know him better? I don't know, just a guess.
    And it would be cool to re-meet him (if you ever do) and perhaps he could even be your soul mate and you would never know. I don't know exactly what you would be learning from those dreams, but when you figure it out, let me know. I love dreams and I love trying to figure them out.

    Yeah, I had recurring dreams about a guy I (literally) bumped into at Nottingham Uni for about a year once. No idea why

    Thanks dizzee! I didn't think it was possible for me not to have met this guy before. Probably just remembered him subconsciously. I'm thinking, since I've never seen this guy again, that I probably first saw him while traveling. I live in a small town. If he lived here, I would know it. I'd certainly love to meet him. I'll let you know if I find out anything more.

    I'm not necessarily waiting to meet him, but it would be totally cool. I kind of don't get it 'cause he doesn't seem to be the sort of guy I'm normally attracted to. But, he seems to have that adventurous quality I love. Anyway, it seems I was supposed to learn something from all those dreams, but I'm just confused.

    I've dreamed about people I've never met, but not like this. Maybe he's just an ideology in your head. Imagine if you met him though! That would be mystical :) bit I wouldn't hold your breath

      I dream of the same person since I was 6 and I kept dreaming even after I was an adult.

      Sometimes we were children playing hide and seek, sometimes we were adults and we were married.

      There were dozens of dreams and I remember them all, especially about the day we meet in real life.
