Daydreams Of A Long Lost Friend

I am 31 years old and have had many experiences over my life time mainly with dreams or daydreams. One ability that has stuck with me over the years is the ability to daydream about someone right before I actually see them.

I can't control this it just happens to me every so often. It always happens when I go out of the house like to the store, the mall or at work. It will always be of someone that I have not seen in a while or had any kind of contact with (it could be anywhere from 6 months and the longest was about two years) These are also people who I have not thought about or mentioned in a long time.

There have been many occasions so I will only talk about a few. Probably the first experience of this ability (not the first psychic experience) that I can remember happened when I was 14. I was at home sitting in the living room, getting ready to go to the liquor store and play video games when I began to daydream. I was daydreaming that I was fighting this kid I went to school with in 8th grade. I don't recall his name but there was no mistaking that it was him. He had freckles all over his face, red hair tall skinny. The daydream was very realistic, adrenaline was flowing, my heart racing I even swung like I was really fighting.

I decided it was time to go and play video games at the liquor store. I played Street fighter II my favorite game at the time, and I kept beating this kid (he was around the same age as me). He got pissed and he wanted to fight, so we got into this fist fight in the parking lot over the stupid game. When I looked over I saw my friend I went to school with (the one freckles and red hair) He was watching us fight. The daydream was a little mixed up but close enough. I didn't realize that I predicted what would happen until later on.

Another time (this was about a year ago) it was about my Ex-girl. I was at Target with my wife, son... And I began to daydream that I was talking to my Ex (again, I saw a clear picture of her face and I was having a conversation with her in my mind) I haven't seen this girl in long time, the dream just popped in my head. My fiancée was in the next aisle and here comes my EX right at me. I actually left this girl to be with my wife. She says "Where have you been, what are you doing here?" and I was really short with her, I just said" I'm here with my family" and I walked away, but we kept bumping into each other. It really sucked. My wife and my Ex knew of each other but my wife didn't recognize her.

The most recent one happened at the mall. I daydreamed I was having a conversation with a friend I met in my Psychology class. Again, I haven't seen or heard of this person in like 5-6 months. 10 minutes later I walked right by her (she was looking at jewelry), I didn't bother to say hi to her this time.

I can keep going on and on, this happens to me all the time and it is always with someone who I have not seen or thought of in a long time. It is always a daydream right before I encounter the actual person, there is a clear understanding and recognition of who the person is, (there is absolutely no doubt who the person is that I was just daydreaming about.) I guess I can sense their presence before I actually see them, maybe there is a reason for the daydreams and my mind prepares me before the encounter. Does anyone else experience this and what would this be called?
