Writing durood in Arabic

Q: When writing the name of the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) in a book or article, does the translated English phrase "may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him" give the same reward as writing the transcribed Arabic "Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam" after His name?

Dream

Q: I want to ask about a dream I had today. There was something going on in the house and I asked everyone no one told me then someone told me that one of the aunt in the neighbourhood got married and she is already a grandparent and she got married to my uncle. Every one was happy and then I saw my aunts mum who died many years ago she was happy and I said salam to her. She smiled and kissed me. Is it bad if a dead person kisses you?

Premarital relationship

Q: I was in love with a girl, she was Christian. But the relationship wasn't for long. Her ex came back in her life and she was dating both of us at the same time. I was not aware of it. I was so much in love with her. And when she broke up my trust, I lost trust in girls and relationship. I'm 28 years old now and single. I'm not mentally prepared to get married or when its comes to get involved with someone (pure relationship with Islamic guidelines) that hardly stand for few days and I start facing problems trusting that girl. Need your real help. Please guide me.

Dream

Q: I was making istikhara for marriage to someone. I saw him wearing white trousers and black jacket sitting with a group of unknown people. I walked in recognised him and I smiled at him. Few days prior praying istikhara I saw both me and him in wedding outfits initially separate then together in my living room. In real life we are no longer together as I did not want to continue in haraam relationship. He said he wanted marriage but is living unhappily with another.
