i'm not sure practicing meditation will give one the discernment to detach from their visions.
recently i had an experience where intense emotions were stirred out of me both waking and in dream- where i met a woman i felt intense feelings for and believe we are a part of the same soul. the dream was so peaceful and so real that i was convinced- but to act on it in the waking world was to propel our separation and make for awkward moments. whether the vision of belonging to the same energy is true or not, i do see that the ego wanted to be satisfied in a romantic sense, while fate would work against its desire. sometimes that friction creates a yearning for the individual vision to be relayed and brought to the surface- even if it means appearing like a fanatic, so that what was experienced might receive some validation.
