Dreaming of an Ex Walking Away - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may bring up the distance that lingers after a relationship ends, or the feeling of letting go.
Your ex turns away and grows farther, or disappears into a crowd. You may feel torn between following and staying where you are.
Korean lore: Traditionally, an old connection leaving has sometimes been interpreted as the end of a relationship or a chance to sort through your feelings. The meaning may vary depending on whether you felt sad or relieved in the dream. (You might consider the folk interpretation of leaving and parting as reflecting a change in, or the closing of, a relationship.)
Through the mind: Part of you may be moving toward putting a relationship behind you. If you’re going through another change or parting these days, those feelings may have surfaced through the image of an old lover.
