Numbers reappearing EVERYWHERE

I'm seeing the numbers 1108, 118, 1018, 1188, etc. These have always been common numbers in my life; my birthday is 11/08/88, and the anniversary of my first serious relationship that changed the course of my life was 10/18. But lately I just cannot stop seeing the number...it's everywhere. What could this mean? I feel like my guides or the universe are hitting me over the head with something and I just don't get it...

My understanding is that 11 refers to illumination and 8 references practical manifestation.

I hope that my thoughts on this will be helpful.

I can kinda relate, except I see 22 and not 1188, 1088, etc.
When I asked here about the synchronicity, someone told me to try to remember how I felt whenever I saw the number. I generally feel as if I was told to think/remember something; I still have to figure out what it is, but I never expected this to be that easy, so it may take some time. But what's important here is you: how do you feel when you see those numbers? I'm kind of new to this, but in my opinion it's all about the meaning and feel you give to them (the numbers).
