Did you dream about falling in love with a stranger?
Wondering what it means?
Dreaming about falling in love could mean that you have unfulfilled desires, that you’re unhappy in your current relationship, or, they could even have a deeper and more spiritual meaning.
Let’s take a closer look:
1) You’re lonely
When I was a lonely and awkward teenager, I didn’t have much experience with dating. I used to watch all these romcoms and wish that some amazing guy would fall head over heels in love with me.
But for some reason, it wasn’t happening. I was too shy and I wasn’t really putting myself out there.
I didn’t get it. Where was my prince charming already?
That’s when I started dreaming about falling in love with someone I hadn’t even met…
Our eyes would meet across the room and we’d both instantly know, this is it, true love.
You don’t have to be a teenager to feel the way I felt. The world can be a lonely place.
If you’re dreaming about finding love with a stranger in your dream, it’s because you’re lonely. And you know what that means?
It means that you need to get out there and meet new people.
It’s easier than ever before to isolate yourself from the world today. With so many people working from home, you can go days without seeing another person.
This dream is your subconscious telling you that you’re spending too much time alone and that you could use a little love in your life.
2) Your life feels empty
Maybe you have a great career and beautiful home and amazing friends.
And yet, your life feels empty.
You’ve traveled the world and you can buy whatever you need, but somehow, something is missing.
If you’re dreaming about falling in love with someone you’ve never met, don’t ignore your dream. It’s clear that your life isn’t complete because you haven’t found love yet.
Your dream is a sort of wake-up call. No matter how successful or rich you are, you won’t be happy until you find someone to share your life with.
Don’t be scared to put yourself out there and be open to love.
3) You’re ready for love
Maybe you weren’t ready to be in a serious relationship until now.
Maybe you’ve enjoyed having fun – no strings attached. And that’s fine, sometimes that’s exactly what you need.
But maybe you’re starting to get bored of the same old, meaningless one-night stands.
Does this sound familiar?
And now, you dream about falling in love with a stranger and you wake up feeling great. You feel so loved and so happy.
Could it mean that you’re finally ready to be in a serious relationship? Think about it.
Maybe you’re not quite ready to get married tomorrow, but you’re definitely ready to have a real relationship with someone and see where it goes.
So what are you waiting for? Give love a chance.
4) You’re filled with desire
Maybe you’re single, or maybe you’re in a relationship, but if you’re having hot dreams about falling in love with a stranger that leaves you feeling full of longing and desire when you wake up, then it’s clear that this is something that’s missing from your life.
If your life is missing passion, then you need to go out there and find it.
Get a dating app, go out clubbing with your friends or ask them to set you up. Put yourself out there and address your needs. Let that hot stranger become reality.
And if you’re in a long-term relationship, maybe it feels like it has lost its spark. Well, don’t worry, you just need to bring it back.
You need to make sure that you set aside some time with your partner to reconnect. Go out to dinner and a movie. Do something fun, just the two of you.
Try and remember what it was like when you first started dating.
Like everything else in life, a successful relationship takes work so don’t you forget it.
5) It could mean that it’s time for a change
If you’re currently in a relationship that you know isn’t going anywhere, then you could be dreaming about falling in love with a stranger as a way to signify that it’s time for a change.
Maybe the person you’re with is very nice and you make a great couple on paper. But something just doesn’t click. You haven’t broken up with them because you’re waiting for things to get… well… better.
Then you start dreaming about a wonderful stranger…
This is your subconscious trying to give you a hint that it’s time to let go and move on. It’s time to find someone who makes you feel like that stranger in your dream does – and it doesn’t matter whether or not they’re perfect on paper.
6) Love is coming your way
Sometimes dreams are the perfect medium for the universe to send us signs.
If you’ve had a series of terrible relationships or have been alone for a while and then you dream about meeting this handsome stranger and falling in love, it could be a sign from the universe that love is on the horizon.
But how do you know if it’s a sign from the universe or just wishful thinking?
Well, you could always check with a gifted advisor.
If you’ve never talked to a psychic before, don’t worry, I know where you can find someone reliable to talk to.
For the last few years, I’ve been talking to the folks at Psychic Source. They’ve helped me make some big career decisions as well as figure out my love life.
So if you want to know if love is finally coming your way and understand your dream a little better, I really recommend that you get in touch with someone who specializes in dream interpretation.

7) Something is missing in your life
There are many reasons why you might be dreaming about falling in love with someone who isn’t real.
One of them could be that something is missing in your life. Perhaps you’re struggling to find a hobby that you enjoy or a career path that fulfills you.
Falling in love with a stranger in your dreams could be a way to cope with feeling lost and confused about what to do with your life.
You might not be able to pinpoint the exact reason why you’re dreaming about this person, but it could be a cry for help.
Your subconscious could be trying to tell you that you need something or someone in your life because you’re not happy at the moment.
8) It’s a way to escape reality
Sometimes, dreams are just a way for us to escape reality.
If you’re currently dealing with problems in your life, dreaming about prince charming might be just the thing you need.
Do you feel overwhelmed?
Maybe you have too many responsibilities. Maybe your work is stressful or your relationship is going through a rough patch. Whatever it is, you can hardly wait to go to sleep and go to that special place where a romantic stranger will be waiting for you.
While this may offer some relief for the time being, it’s not a long-term solution. You need to face whatever it is that you’re trying to escape from. Whether it’s something you need to fix or walk away from is up to you.
All I know is that you need to be able to be happy in your waking life and not have to escape into your dreams to be happy.
9) You’re looking for some excitement
Sometimes life can get a bit boring, trust me, I know.
You get into a routine and suddenly each day is the same.
In this case, dreaming about falling in love with a stranger is an indication that you need to add some excitement to your life.
You want to experience something new, you want to feel alive. I get it.
Dreams are sometimes a great catalyst for you to work out your issues and get in touch with your feelings and emotions.
10) They could be “the one”
Who knows, the person you’re dreaming about falling in love with could actually be “the one”.
If you’ve been dreaming about this person for a long time, then it’s possible that they’re the one – your soulmate.
But how can you know that they’re your soulmate? Do soulmates even exist?
I always thought that the idea of soulmates was great, but deep down, I didn’t really believe in them.
But then I found out about this professional psychic artist who can draw a sketch of what your soulmate looks like and I was left speechless.
My friends and I were drinking some wine and having a fun girls’ night out when we decided to get some sketches done for fun.
As soon as my sketch was done, my friends and I all got really quiet. The person in the picture was none other than my husband!
Pretty wild, huh?
So, if you wanna find out if the person you’re dreaming about is your soulmate, get your own sketch drawn here.
11) You had a fight with your partner
If you had a fight with your partner and then dreamt about falling in love with a stranger, it might mean that you’re fantasizing about what life would be like without them.
It’s happened to me more than once.
Sometimes, when I get into a fight with my husband and we go to bed without having resolved anything, I’ll feel so disappointed and resentful that I’ll dream about someone “better”.
So if you dream about falling in love with a perfect stranger after fighting with your partner, chances are you’re feeling resentful and in the heat of the moment you want to get out of your relationship.
You need to sit down with your partner and have a nice long talk and sort things out. The person in your dream is just a fantasy, they’re not real, they’re what you wish your partner was because you’re not happy with them right now.
12) You’re unhappy in your relationship
Now, if it’s more than just a fight, if you’re generally unhappy in your relationship, dreaming about falling in love with someone you’ve never met could be a cry for help.
You feel stuck in a loveless relationship and you just don’t know when it’s time to leave. You want more out of a relationship and out of life. You dream that someone new will come along and whisk you away from you.
Would you be ignoring your own needs in hopes that your partner will change? That your relationship will suddenly be everything you ever wanted?
Look, if things aren’t working out, you need to speak to your partner about it. You need to decide whether you want to work on your relationship and maybe seek outside counsel, or whether you’re ready to walk away.
13) You’re angry with your partner
Is your partner driving you crazy?
If they’ve messed up so badly that you don’t even want to talk to them right because of how angry you are, it’s perfectly understandable that you’ll dream about falling in love with someone you have not met.
But look, it doesn’t mean that you should leave them and look for the person from your dreams. Dreams are a great way for us to get in touch with our feelings and process events from our waking life.
When you’re ready, you need to confront your partner and tell them how you feel. Hopefully, you’ll be able to work things out and once you stop being angry with them, you’ll have no need to dream about the perfect stranger.
14) You feel like you’re being taken for granted by your partner
Do you feel like your partner doesn’t appreciate you?
Do you sometimes feel invisible?
Do they take you for granted?
Look, dreaming about falling in love with someone you don’t know could mean that you’re longing to be seen and appreciated. You want your partner to love you and show you how much you mean to them.
When you’re with your partner, you want to feel the way you do with that stranger in your dream.
So, if you feel like you’re being taken for granted by your partner, you need to talk to them. They may not even be aware of what they’re doing. They probably adore you and would never intentionally make you feel bad.
Communication is the key. Who knows, maybe they have a lot on their mind that has nothing to do with you.
15) It could be a warning about your current relationship
Finally, the reason you could be dreaming about falling in love with someone you don’t know is that your subconscious is trying to warn you about your current relationship.
Sometimes, dreams can help you realize that there are issues you need to address in your relationship, even if you’re not sure where they’re coming from.
Maybe your relationship is toxic but you don’t want to admit it to yourself.
Maybe it isn’t going anywhere. But the thing is, you can’t really hide from reality, eventually, it will start to catch up with you in your dreams.
Dreaming about falling in love with someone you don’t know could be a wake-up call.
