I'm the same. The only time I've had dream characters where I felt there was more to it than just my own subconscious generating a self-aspect for consideration is a few times when my departed grandmother came to visit me (and would laugh at me when I'd say, "Hey, what are you doing here? Aren't you dead?"), and a period where my father kept turning up in my dreams, almost as an actual intruder, trying to communicate with me. Those cases had a special or "different" quality to them, it's hard to describe.
The dreams with my grandmother stopped on their own.
The ones where my father was pestering me began when I finally worked out the hows and whys of full-on psychic tie cutting (and I got one hell of a psychic attack when he sensed what I'd done, too; I know NOW to shield BEFORE cutting the ties!). The dreams then commenced, and they only stopped when I set up specific psychic shielding against him. The pattern is part of why I conclude that the dream intrusions were a kind of psychic contact, rather than just dream images.
I also have had a few dreams with my mother where it was made clear to me that her mental state is deteriorating (later confirmed by my adult daughter who is still in touch with my mother), and there were a few where my mother showed up and wandered around in my dream annoyingly, like she was looking for me, but once I set up psychic shielding against her, that stopped. Now when she (or my father) show up in a dream, it's always a dream character (they have a different quality that is impossible to explain).
My dreams have, for some years, been populated by only my own dream characters, probably due to the fact that my house is very well warded and I'm in the absolute habit of psychic shielding (apparently, I even do it in my sleep).
May the light surround you, may you be blessed. May the light surround us, may we be blessed. May love and light surround us all, and may we all be healed and blessed. And so it is, and so it shall be, now and ever after.
