Tell me about some other friends or family members with whom you'd like to build stronger relationships or spend time with. I'm not suggesting you jump into a new relationship, just that you redirect your attention, building new memories and having experiences and events to look forward to. But if you want to talk about "them" as well I'm here to listen.

Are there any activities you like to do on your spare times? If there are -anything, like drawing, dancing, going to shelters and feeding animals, etc.- spend your time doing those. You'll have fun and maybe won't think about them just for a couple of hours.

It is not easy to get someone off your mind especially if you were or are close to them.Just stay strong and keep yourself busy.

I had to learn to occupy my time doing other things because if not I would think about them all day.

This is something that many people struggle with. There are articles out there about how love is a drug to your brain. You act differently when you're in love than when you aren't. If you find yourself obsessing, change your track - do something positive and creative, or even veg out on the couch.

Perhaps trying to find activities or hobbies that may interest you. At times, when we are stagnant in life it can be difficult to steer your mind off that person, but if you fill your mind with good times, not thinking about them will come more naturally. If you aren’t feeling like socializing at the moment you can try some more intimate things such as puzzles, painting, dancing, etc. You can always try new things until you find something that interests you. Also, constantly telling yourself not to think of them will probably not help all that much.
