Couple nights ago I had a dream that I reconnected with a girl I knew and we had a great time together.

Then the next night, I dreamt about a different girl, perhaps the never-was who sticks with me the most. The dream was I was traveling to the east coast on business, and she see's me at a restaurant and comes to join me. I don't have to ask, she just seems so happy to see me. She touches my shoulder, smiles so lovingly and acceptingly. Then we agree to go for a walk together on a hiking trail, though the sky darkens and we have to call it off. Then the dream ends. Gawd my dreams are so full of cliche imagery.

Man these dreams are so dispiriting, because I've never known such feelings in real life from another person. And I fear I never will, no matter how I try, because I'm just not deserving or worthy.

I think the dreams could be a way of keeping the spirit of love alive within you, painful as it is. I think the dreams are indicating that you should not give up. Find ways to give yourself the esteem you need.

yep that sucks. Used to have dreams like that back in my single days. The worse ones would be when I had a dream of crush or some such thing like what. The thing is if/when the real thing happens it probably won't be as emotionally intense as it was in your dreams (it wasn't for me). It took so long to happen that my mind couldn't emotionally accept what was going on for a long time. It took a year for my emotions to catch up to reality. Then again I was keeping a mostly long distance relationship that whole year. After I started seeing her every day it took about a month.
