Inception And Love: Dreaming About Your Ex

Inception has us wondering--what does it really mean to dream about an ex?

We admit that Inception really made us use our thinking caps. We left the theater with a number of burning questions: What is real, how is Joseph Gordon-Levitt so gosh darn adorable, and most importantly... what does it mean when you dream about an ex?
