    You accept where you're at and keep going through life one moment at a time. Let yourself fully experience where you are, not where you've been, or where you think you're going. If you take it moment to moment, you'll be able to handle pain, and you'll heal it without even trying. If you accept where you're at, that you have feelings for this person but they're not right, it becomes OK. If you fight it, try to get rid of it, you'll only think about it more.

    Ex A: DON'T THINK ABOUT CATS.

    ......See? It doesn't work. Even if you tell yourself to think about trains or something instead, you still have cats in your mind, because how else would you remember not to think about it?

    It's okay to think about him. Thoughts can't hurt you, only actions can. Thoughts manifest themselves into actions and behaviors, but if you see them as thoughts rather than reality, they lose their power. These are only thoughts. Nothing more. They'll go away in their own time. Just remember to appreciate what you have RIGHT NOW--verses waiting for a painless future.

    Getting over someone takes time and different things work for different people.

    Some people write, others find a hobby, start working out, pretty much anything to get their mind off someone and focused on something else.

    You just have to find what works for you.

  • you get on with your life one day at a time, find different places to go, see other friends and before you realize it you will get thru the day not thinking of them, it does get easier. I had to do that with the love of my life, we met at the wrong time when we were in committed relationships to others, we felt such a strong Attraction, and after we split from those relationships we had some fun but then realized the time was still not right. Yes, you will think of him from time to time but you can get over him and have a great life,. Good luck to you, I wish you well

    Go do volunteer work, stop questioning about it, stop talking about it and you'll be fine :).

    Whenever you think about him Listen to "Friday I'll be over you" and make it true.
