Back story, I dated the woman in this dream for a bit after my divorce. It was passionate and we were deeply in love. With a deep connection where we could almost sense each others feelings while a part. I have plenty of stories about that as well. But I screwed it up by not understanding how manipulative and emotionally abusive my ex was and the trouble is caused trying to fully separate. Now years later, I am single and she is married with a child. Every few months we talk again. Neither of us really willing to fully give up the contact. Recently we have been chatting again, fairly regularly for about a week. I sent her a message about the dream, and I am cutting and pasting it below.

"I had a dream about you last night. Nothing sexual, sorry to disappoint. But we were both traveling, I don't know where either of us were going. We randomly met at a diner in Texas though. It was one of those silver sided east coast type of greasy diners. We were both on our way to different airports, and it appeared to be a weird sort of layover where we both had to drive from one airport to another. The diner served Chinese food, which neither of us thought was odd. And neither of us thought it was odd to run into each other at a random Chinese serving greasy silver sided diner in the middle of no where Texas while we both tried to catch flights at different airports. We talked, and we laughed. But there was a sadness in the air. You said you had to catch your flight. You looked like you were on the verge of crying. I scooted closer to you and said that everything was going to be alright. We will always run into each other like this. Then I put my hand on the side of your face. My middle, index, and ring finger on the side of your neck, slightly gripping the nape of your neck. My thumb gently caressing your cheek. There were tears in your eyes, one trickled down your cheek and I wiped it away with my thumb. I looked into your blue eyes and told you again that I was always here and we would always know how to find each other. You said that you know, and you have faith in that fact. But you had to go. You mumbled something, held my hand against your cheek, kissed my palm. Then walked out the door. I watched as you got into a blue Cadillac looking vehicle and drove off down the highway. There was a cloud of dust behind your car, which was out of place since it was a highway not a dusty Texas back road. "

After she drove off, I woke up. It was about 450 AM. I was not able to go back to sleep. I wasn't sad, I was oddly calm but very emotional. When I sent her this, she asked if the Chinese food part had any meaning. I said I didn't know, but it was oddly specific so I thought it did.

Anyway, any interpretation would be great.
