when both people are having dreams of a similar theme?

guy's dream:

so there's this guy who had this dream about this girl breaking up with him when her sick father was starting to recover from a sickness. she just started going cold on him and found someone else. but before dumping him, she buys him groceries (—?)

girl's dream:

and the girl too after a few days had this dream about asking him to go home (passive-aggressive way of wanting to break up)

things seem to be going well between them but is there some dynamic here that you might be sensing? are these dreams anxiety-fuelled?

It means y’all need a break from each other when even your dreams start to psych up. Not a break up.

Just like space and time to be your own individuals again and escape the group think

I would say this. It's a different opinion but I think in relationships there needs to be some element of tension if it's too easy, it ain't exciting (i.e. sexy).

I get that some couples thrive being up each others butts 24/7, respect. For me that will kill the love faster than anything. So will rushing things at the beginning.

Op is built different tho.

nah the one time this almost happened we just both end up crying about it and not actually going through with it. but i feel the codependency fuels these anxiety dreams. i think it's my fault. he's too good at picking up on my moods. he had this dream too right after i fell asleep at work and my boss messaged me about going missing.

i don't know what he imagined that i did that half hour i was gone coz i thought i explained myself fine until he had that dream that night.

Hey you used the codependency word, not me. But if it fits...

Maybe its like having a sympathetic pregnancy. You experience the same as your partner to get closer or whatever. We are in it together babe, I will also gain weight and have tender tits.

I thought codependency was literally mutual clinginess... no?

Who among them told the other about the dream first ? Did being told lead to the others dream ?

i think the guy's dream led to the girl's dream a few days later
