I was wondering on reading this whether or not your excessive weight has always been a major issue, including five years ago when you hung out together with this boy from your high school with your other friends. The reason for me asking this is that seeing yourself thin in your dream may be a form of wish fulfilment that the boy might have then seen you as being attractive and wanted to be more than merely your school friend or acquaintance if you had been thinner at the time.
You say that in real life you never had a crush on him, but I feel that above all you would like to once again (?) feel that you are attractive to boys, and that it is being overweight that is mainly holding you back from wanting a boy to get close enough to you. You might then quickly discover that what really matters to most men is what type of person you are (your personality), rather than so much your dress size.
But being overweight is obviously not making you feel particularly good about yourself, and dreaming about a boy from your past probably feels safer to your dreaming mind than attempting to deal with the underlying reasons why you have gained this extra weight in the first place. It is a form of cold comfort, by suggesting that you both getting together was never meant to be, and that your weight therefore had nothing to do with you not becoming a couple. Since the boy is no longer a part of your waking life (?) you will never be able to test this theory out, at least with him.
Please do take this dream as a sign that you should therefore give up on working to reduce your weight for the sake of your health and self confidence, because you do not deserve to have love in your life. Use it instead to encourage you to keep working on your weight problem (perhaps with the assistance of a qualified dietitian, your doctor and a health counsellor), as a woman who feels good about herself and her body image cannot help but be increasingly attractive to the type of man she would most want to meet and to date. Not only will your social and love life get a long overdue boost, but you will probably live a longer and healthier life because of your efforts towards losing those extra kilos (or pounds).
Both a WIN for you, and a WIN for your man?
Kindest regards,
