I forget my one-sided love by reminding myself that I deserve someone that will reciprocate the love I have for them. I am worthy of someone that feels the same. It is a waste of time to dwell on someone that does not feel the same, therefore, I try not to give them too much of my time or energy. First, I acknowledge and accept how I feel. It is normal to experience this. Then, I focus on my hobbies, passions, and spend time with my loved ones- the people that actually love me back. It might be helpful to start talking to other potential partners (when you think it is time, but don't dwell on the one-sided love too much). Throughout this time, I am kind to myself because it feels horrible to not have someone reciprocate the love you have for them, but it is normal. I remind myself that I am worthy of someone that will value and love me.

Many of us are unwittingly lulled into unrequited or one-sided Love. Often this happens when we are needy and desperate. However, if one party are unwilling to reciprocate, it leads to an unhealthy, emotionally absent partner. It is hurtful with the one you love is emotionally unavailable to you. Therefore it is best to go in separate ways since there is no commonality towards building the relationship. If you are on different paths, it indicates a disparity in attitude which would be difficult to rectify in the long term. Adopt an objectivity and optimism in such a flawed relationship. Let go of one-sided love and be positive in seeking the right one. Second best just wont do. Seek your soulmate not temporary mates as lovers. Trust your inner feelings. If something doesnt feel right, it probably isnt meant to be.Let it go.

This is a hard thing to do for many people. Love is one of the strongest emotions we'll ever get to experience. Letting go to one-sided love can be especially difficult. In my experience, the two things that helped me most were time and rationalization. Remind yourself that the feelings weren't mutual. Remind yourself that the other person didn't care like you did. You need to accept this. It's not worth being with someone who doesn't want to be with you. Also keep in mind that time heals all. I have an ex who I was madly in love with. It's been several years since we were together. I can still kind of picture her in my mind and I can remember our past together but there is no longer emotion associated with her.

Forgetting the feelings we have toward a special someone it's not easy. In fact, it's a process that will take some time, but with some effort and some patience we can get over it. I would suggest to do things that will make you not think about that person, with things I meant activities or hobbies of your preference that will keep your mind away from thinking about that person.There are only many things that one could do, it could be from a walk in the beach, to working out; to volunteer at any place that needs help, or to hang out with friends. Do anything that keeps you happy and stop you from thinking about your crush. Most important, talk aloud your feelings, speak with a friend about your situation or use a journal and write down what's on your mind.
Hope this helps!

Don't forget - learn from that experience - use you past to make your stronger and wiser . I believe we can use life experience to show us what works for us and what doesn't . Life is a great teacher. One sided love hurts and love shouldn't hurt like that - Love should make you feel good - Love builds you up - It makes life sunnier - You deserve more . Everyone deserves to love and be loved in return . No one should have to be with someone who does not really love them.

I was in your shoes once upon a time trying to overcome by reading books, articles on google and motivational videos. so i can give u things to do
I don't know if these will help you out, but they did for me.
1. Tell Them : No matter, what will happen just tell them about how you feel. Personally
2. Don't push yourself too hard
3. Write on the blank space : There may be moments like flashbacks of him/her in the middle of a night around 2am , memories of how you felt his/her presence ,how you watched him/her breathing air around you, conversations ,laughter, and everything that you miss or feel resonating about him/her. Just find a notebook or apps like OneNote and write down everything arranging into a poem or story or journal. After a year or later, if you find time to read them, you will be surprised to see that you've grown stronger.
4. Don't harm yourself : I never did nor I want you to hurt yourself . Your biological body is worth more than the finest of best AI robots or heavenly riches of Earth. And the person who doesn't love you will not love you even if you die or harm yourself. They might end up having grief. And I don't think you'll be happy to see them sad or crying

You don’t have to forget them. I mean loving someone is quite a big deal. I think trying to forget is quite humanly impossible especially if they meant so much to you so instead you should try to work through the pain you feel for it being a one-sided love. Why do you want to think about them less? I think this is sometimes similar to just going through a breakup so I would think of the reasons why things are not working out or really face the facts. “This person does not love me and so I deserve to find love that is two-sided.â€

Just try to accept their feelings. be aware of your emotions and keep it in control and try to distract yourself from thinking that. Its really hard to forget your love but the most important thing is you deserve love and we cant force anyone to give you that. so just start to love yourself and keep one thing in mind that you really deserve love and one day that love will find you. but it only happens when you start to accept your feelings and when you love yourself!!. Just enjoy the life and feel this nature. try to understand.

Forgetting your one-sided love can be a difficult process. Because you are so much attached to the person. What I do is to talk as much as I can about the experience I had with that person. If it was negative that is. I assume that this is the reason why you wanna forget them or your love towards them. If not, then also it is applicable. You can write a letter to them, stating how you feel, but don't send the letter. Keep that to yourself. This is just to help you vent. I hope the answer was helpful.
