Summary

This dream reflects the emotional processing of your recent breakup and reveals fears about betrayal, deception, and unresolved feelings. The presence of your daughter suggests concerns about how this relationship affects family dynamics and stability.

Interpretation

From a psychological perspective, dreaming of an ex-partner shortly after a breakup is a natural part of emotional processing and grief work. The dream reveals your subconscious mind working through feelings of betrayal, whether real or feared. The image of him with another woman and her family represents your anxieties about replacement and abandonment. His erratic behavior - shaking his head "like a crazy person" - symbolizes your perception of his instability or your confusion about his true nature. The abrupt ending of the video call reflects your sense of powerlessness and lack of closure in the relationship.

In Islamic dream interpretation, seeing a known person in a dream indicates that you will receive something from them or someone similar to them - whether something you love or dislike about them. The dream of a boyfriend who has betrayed trust suggests you are protecting yourself from forbidden or harmful things. When you see people acting in ways that cause emotional pain, this reflects your inner wisdom recognizing deception. The presence of three people (the girlfriend, mother, and sister) in your dream indicates your ability to guard yourself against harmful situations and relationships.

From a Christian dream interpretation perspective, dreams about past relationships often serve as warnings to avoid returning to old patterns or "old lovers" - which can mean former partners or former negative behaviors. This dream appears as a heads-up to be careful and maintain healthy boundaries. The dream may also indicate you are going through something now that connects to that time in your life, prompting spiritual and emotional reflection. The deceptive behavior you witnessed in the dream calls you to discernment and wisdom in relationships.

The Islamic tradition also teaches that waking up emotional from a dream, especially one involving crying or distress, often indicates relief from distress is coming. Though you felt great loss in the dream, this emotional release can be a form of healing. The video call being abruptly ended by the sister suggests that divine protection is cutting off what would harm you further. Your ability to confront the situation with your daughter present shows your strength and your priority of protecting what truly matters.
(Muhammed İbn Sîrîn, Dreams and Interpretations, Islam)

The overall interpretation across traditions points to this being a healing dream - one that brings hidden fears to the surface so they can be processed and released. You are being shown the reality of the situation so you can move forward with clarity. The presence of your daughter in the dream emphasizes that your primary loyalty and protection should be toward your family and your own wellbeing. The dream's emotional intensity, while painful, is actually facilitating your healing process and helping you recognize patterns that no longer serve you.
