A ghost has a crush on me
I was asleep last night and had a strange dream. Aren't dreams always strange? Just before I woke up I was looking at my sleeping body from outside of myself, there I was, eyes shut, legs spread over my double bed, my arms hugging its satin quilt. And a black shadow or a black shape shifted around my bed near towards my bedside chest of drawers. And it extended an arm and its hand reached under my armpit and started to tickle me. I'm sure it was a female ghost because the strange dream I had prior to this event was about my ex-girlfriend who I broke up with a year ago missing me. In the dream I was like a fly on the wall watching her life unfold without me. There she was, a lonely English teacher teaching teenage students considering seducting a young male student but in her heart wishing she could get back to me. Fear and desolation was etched on her face. I think the most rational explanation is a ghost of her past has developed a crush on me.
ummmm are you for real? You believe in that sort of crap. Sounds like something for another part of this forum. Nope no ghost. Sounds kinda stupid if you ask me. Rational explanation? Bull*()#. Sounds like someone has watched that scene from Ghostbusters a little too much.
Now harshness aside, you need to move on man. Stop obessing over this one person, this ex. Go out there and embrace the world. Find a girl; someone to love and love you in return.

I don't know about the shadow and your interpretation of it. Dreaming often seems to me to be a way for the subconscious to clean itself out. Not knowing what your current, real-life relationship is with the ex-girlfriend, or her side of it, I couldn't say whether there was anything to what you surmise or whether it was just wishful thinking from your subconscious. I'm not trained in psychology, either, so my opinion is just that—an opinion.
The way you describe seeing your sleeping body from the outside, however, sounds like a possible textbook case of out-of-body experience, or astral projection. That has been known to happen during transition times between full wakefulness and deeper sleep.

lol its not a normal dream its (i dunno how to say it in english) but something like a "out of body experience" and it should feel very real and the strange thing is that you really see yourself while that happens and everything around you.
i dunno if its scientificly explained already never checkd it but its really not a dream
have heard many storys of people who claim to feel super happy and free and really see themself i dont beleve in the abnormal things
but i do know that this is something unknown would like to experience it myself to once i also heard that you need to be very relaxed for it to happen
Well I believe you...maybe....
I had an incident while I was laying in bed and an arm wrapped around me from behind while I was laying on my side and then I felt their body press against mine and then the warmth. But then...the phantom vanished....
...OK, maybe I was half awake and half asleep but it felt so real.
