Step 3. Sometimes we get obsessed because we think that that is the only person who will love us or because we convince ourselves that it will be our "only love"

Never think of anyone in these terms: not only are they ideal but they do not correspond to reality. If it didn't work, then it probably should have.

Step 8. Stop making excuses for not calling you, rewriting you, making you sick and other negative ways he may have treated you

Don't think about sitting and basking in pain, because even if you are a great person, he / she will probably just keep thinking about his / her life. If he was interested in you, he would have taken the initiative by contacting you. Since he hasn't, he's not interested in you.

Nobody deserves incomplete love or a shadow of love.

Step 10. If you don't know this person, try to do it

There is no better cure than being a secret admirer than knowing a person. You will become friends or you may end up not liking them anymore.

Advice

  • Keep busy, but if this obsession is hurting you, talk to someone and don't hide your feelings.
  • Don't feel guilty - you may find yourself alone in this moment. Focus on you.
  • Know that there are people who, despite your best efforts, will never give you the attention you want.
  • You have to stop thinking about "what if …": it's time to be strong and move on.
  • Understand that no one will ever be able to make you feel completely fulfilled - it's a big task for one person. Find a support group.
  • Your mind becomes obsessed with this person because it perceives it as your own. Focus on the fact that it isn't.
  • Someone will love you despite that person.
  • Keep a journal - you can write down everything you feel or think or happen. Write about what you want!
  • Try meeting other people.
  • Friendship can be better than any romantic relationship.
