What does it mean when you dream that you can't remember your spouse's name?

Answer 1

Well darling, dreaming that you can't remember your spouse's name could simply mean your brain is playing tricks on you while you catch some Z's. It doesn't mean you secretly want to trade them in for a newer model, so don't go causing unnecessary drama over a little nighttime amnesia. Just chalk it up to your brain being a bit of a scatterbrain while you're off in dreamland.

Answer 2

This is a dream about forgetting or neglecting what is most important, precious and close to you. Your spouse in the dream symbolizes something that OUGHT TO BE extraordinarily important and familiar to you, yet has been neglected and forgotten. This could refer to some object, but is more likely to represent some task, project or calling that once was the focus of your life. Yet again, your spouse in the dream also signifies some aspect of yourself that you have, in affect, "forgotten." The dream can be compared to familiar expressions such as "you've forgotten who you are," or "he's not himself today."
