There are many ways to try to unlove someone, it depends on multiple paramaters, if you really want to unlove someone you can start with committing with yourself and take a step everyday about it, by time you cannot believe how much progress you have made!

Base on my experience, I had to accept the reason why we couldn't be together. Acceptance takes a while but once you've accepted it you are ready to move on.

Love is such a strong feeling that it's not something you can do in a day or two. It takes time, although I'm sure you hear that a lot and it doesn't quite answer the question. You just have to delete them from any social media and cut them off your life. That is the first thing. Then, you have to do something that you love. Join a hobby, a club, a sport, watch a new series, do something new and that you'll like. Over time, he/she will slowly disappear from you. Now, you might miss that feeling of being loved or being in love but that doesn't mean you still love that person. As well as missing those memories, there is difference and holding into those memories is completely acceptable .

You can't! When you love someone you gave a person a part of your heart. Meaning whatever happens they will always be a part of you. When you fall in love again. You will create new memories. So then what happened in the past wont matter anymore. 😊

Unfortunatelly, feelings cannot be "unfelt". Only time can heal and give us an opportunity to better understand our feelings and let us choose to step away from them.

Give yourself some time away from that person, make a small community away and try to forget them, time will be your friend

One of the greatest things you can do when you are in this position is to start loving yourself more. Fall in love with yourself, start taking amazing care of yourself and your body. Eat healthy, do a form of movement that you enjoy and find a hobby or volunteer. Reconnect with your old friends and try to make new friends. After a while, you will find that by focusing on you, you won't be focusing on that person as much anymore. Also try seeing the whole picture more and realising that the person you loved wasn't perfect and that they had their faults as well. Hold hope for better things to come

There is no directions in this world I could give that would explain how to "Unlove" a person. It's something you must give time, distance, & even then there is no guarantee. Love is not something you can control.

You can't unlove someone. Time only flows in one direction for us, and you can't change the past. All you can do is make peace with the fact that they weren't the one for you, because being stuck in a relationship of unrequited love and/or no love at all just isn't healthy for either of you. The hardest part of a relationship is letting go of your fear of it ending so you can find one that fits you better.
