After my grandfather died in the early 80's I missed him terribly. After a year of intensely missing him, I had a dream about him. He begged me to please, please let him go, that he wanted and needed to move on. It was a very realistic dream. I did try to let him go after that, and I always remember him asking me that whenever someone else dies and I miss them too much. Honestly, I think he really did visit me in that dream.

I believe he did too.
Your screen name is Native American. I worked with Native American communities for five years and was moved by the spiritual ceremonies they performed. When people are that spiritual, I imagine the walls between the world's are thinner.
I do dream occasionally about my loved ones who are gone (haven't dreamed about my brother yet- he died 6 months ago, or my mom who died a year ago). It's always either my dad or my grandmother, and the dreams are always pleasant. They are usually "casual," in the sense that neither of them acts like it's any big deal for them to be there. No great proclamations - just warm, pleasant dreams.
One really cool thing that happened in 2018 was this: I woke up one morning and did my usual bleary eyed stumble to the coffee maker and as I was walking into the kitchen, I sort of simultaneously thought "Hey, Dad died three years ago today," and as I was thinking that, suddenly, completely out of the blue, my phone just started playing a song I had never even heard before! It was a video of Amos Lee singing "A Little Bit of Rain." And the crazy thing was that my dad and I always really liked the same types of music and we loved playing videos together in his office and right before he died, he had "discovered" Amos Lee.

That was your mind coaching you to let go. You were the one who needed to move on, and you knew it. So your subconscious mind came up with a dream to express the sentiment. No one returns from the dead to talk to anyone in a dream. It’s always what we would expect: we are just talking to ourselves. Through a dream mechanism.
My parents have been gone almost 16 yrs now. I very rarely dream abt them...idk why.
But, when they do show up of in a corner or something, I'm like ' hey what are you doing here?' lol
I usually dream/think of them both during the day as i go about doing my things that i do.
Tell them Hi , or that im thinking abt them.

Rather a mean response - How exactly do you know that what you say is true? Many others who study this phenomenon would disagree with you. I'm sorry if those you have lost never come to visit you.
When I dream of my father, who died at 53 in 1973, I always tell him I thought he was dead and he tells me that he was ill but got better...When I dream of my mother, who died at 90 in 2013, I don't seem to know she is dead. Always good dreams of them.
Me too. I have dreams about family and friends who have died, but it's like a time warp dream. They are frozen at the age they were when they died, and everything is great in the dream. I always feel calm after dreaming about them because it's like I had another opportunity to talk with them and spend time with them.
