Mama Mia -I'll give it a shot.
The simple version of WHY we dream is so the brain can assimilate information through the subconsious.
Why you seem to dream of guys you care about is another matter, and may be a sign that you have allowed them into the most inner recesses of your subconsious. But that does not preclude that your dreams will be pleasant, or will be nightmares.
There is a forum on Dreaming in another room here at Lindaland. You may want to check over there with them for more information.
