To unloved someone would not happen overnight, involving yourself in other activities that may give you a break from the thoughts about a person can be a good way to start. Also try thinking about the times when that person wasn't in your life, that is, the past. When you didn't even know that the person existed. Yes, your mind has worked you into falling in love, but you should know that many people including me have overcome this challenge, it only needs time and patience, and distractions for the low moments.

True love is usually a strong bond and not something you let go of. But if you want to unlove someone then understanding why you want to may be a good start. If they aren't alive then you may want to try and let go so it doesn't cause you any grief. But if the person is alive then its as simple as saying the reasons to yourself why you do not want to love the person no more. But true love you can not let go of, even if you move on there will be love there. But true love wouldn't ever let go. So you can unlove someone im many ways like getting rid of memories, don't talk about them, dont think of them or maybe however you see it fits you.

Time cures the hearts, keep it wise and smart. If we cannot forget at least we move on and then is all just good memories.

Getting 'rid' of the intense feelings love brings is a long process but in my opinion it is the most important to realize why the relationship didn't work out or what aspects were unhealthy for you.

it's impossible, i guess, to unlove someone forcefully. Whats the purpose of doing it ? If you trying to forget the things that been done between you and them, unloving is not the best way. It's time to try to letting go. Loving someone that no longer with you anymore is not bad. It's fine, just go with the flow. As time passed by you will experience that you are growing stronger.

You can't unlove someone. You can fall out of love with someone, but you will also love the person, and many times there will be a special part in your heart for them long after you've have fallen out of love with them and even if you are not still communicating with them or haven't seen or met them in a long time. It will help you with your next relationship though once you realize you are no longer in love with the person which takes time, and then you will know more of what you want out of your next relationship.

It depends as to why you want to unlove someone. If the person hurt you and made you miserable then it automatically becomes easy for us to not love them anymore. But if you were deeply connected with that person then to stop loving won't come easy, you shall continue to love them but with time you will slowly not care about them.

I do not think you can fully unlove someone if you love them unconditionally. It is just a matter of moving on with your life.

Trying to unlove someone is not something you can do with the click of a finger, it is something that comes over time. After a breakup you cannot continue to contact the personal regularly, or keep seeing this person as it will make yourself keep hanging on to the memories and the feelings you shared. You need to take each and everyday as it comes. It will not be easy. It will be hard but there was a time where you lived without this person and you will be able to get this back.

Love yourself more. And realize that you are worthy of love. Keep them in your heart but be willing to accept new love.
