Dreams can reflect your subconscious thoughts and desires, even if you're not actively thinking about them during the day.

Additionally, dreams are a way for your brain to process emotions and experiences, so seeing your crush in a dream may simply be a reflection of your feelings.

Dreams communicate in symbols and metaphors. Dreams are also about the dreamer. So this dream contains information about the dreamer, NOT about the girlfriend. This dream strongly suggests fear of losing the girlfriend's affection along with definite feelings of inadequacy. Further discussion of this dream would involve rather intimate topics that would not be appropriate in this category.
