crushes are tough to get over. It helps to focus on something else going on in your life and slowly but surely you'll start thinking of that special person less and less. Getting over a crush myself atm and it's hard. Slowly distance yourself...text them less and less and it helps to get them off your mind. You'll see that not giving yourself that constant access to them helps. Or if you're super bold, you can also admit to having feelings for this special person that you like and hey! maybe those feelings are reciprocated and maybe they're not. In the event that it's not, then...there you go. It might help to get over someone when they tell you that they're not interested in you.

Try to focus more on yourself. You're closest to yourself and you know yourself the best. Just take some time for yourself, do some self-care days and just calm down. Watch fun movies, meet up with friends who will help you focus on different things. Listen to your favorite music, go to the park, take a walk, admire nature or art, just focus on your life and your future. Because that's the most important thing you should focus on. Go to the cinema, read a book, find out about new artists, go to a concert, do everything you ever wanted without any regrets. Just do the best things possible

First of all, I would tell him or her about how I feel. If you have already and that person doesn't feel the same, don't bring yourself down. Don't blame yourself for him or her not feeling the same way, because it isn't your fault. I once had a crush on a guy who felt nowhere close to how I did for him and I found this article called "If He Wanted To Be With You, He Would Be With You" by Kim Quindlen on ThoughtCatalog. After I read it, it helped me cope with the heartache I felt and it made me realize the hard truth. I'm incredibly thankful I came across it and I eventually got over him.

Whether or not people are in an "official" relationship, the feelings one person has for another are just as valid as any feelings between people in a relationship. When those feelings aren't returned for any reason, it can be difficult not to feel some rejection, and probably many other emotions, like anger or sadness (or many others!). I found it best to acknowledge those feelings first, allow myself to feel them, and know that those feelings make sense. Then, I usually try to focus on improving some part of my life, like schoolwork, or work, or a hobby, or other relationships. It's okay that these emotions don't always go away right away, but I also try to honor my worth by not focusing too much on the feelings of rejection, and instead continue to live life. There were times when I gained a friendship after talking about how our feelings differed. I have also sometimes had to ask for space from that person for a while while I processed my feelings and thought about whether we made a good friendship match. Sometimes I had to end the relationship altogether. Eventually, I got to a place where I could be open to new connections again. It's okay if that doesn't happen right away. The experience is valuable, and usually I learned something new about myself or gained some positive experiences because of this person.

I've been here before, it can take awhile but it's not going to last forever! I found that talking about it with others helps, Also getting into hobbies or focusing on something to stop you from thinking about them helps, also watching rom coms with a tub of ice cream and a box of tissues can help, I really hope you feel better soon and that you find someone who loves and values you, we all want to fall in love and have a fairy tale ending, you will get this! Don't give up hope, good luck ❤

Firstly, this can be just as hard as getting over someone that you’d dated. The reason being is that the feelings can be much the same. Keeping yourself busy can help as it gives less thought to the person you were thinking of. If you haven’t got any interests or hobbies in mind, then now is the time to find one. Something that interests you can be a great substitute. By this time hopefully your feelings will have subsided and you think of them less and less. Finally, please don’t beat yourself up about it. You won’t be the first to feel this way..and won’t be the last.

I just stop talking to him , stop replying there messages for some time until I am sure I am over them. In most cases it hurts more when the person is in your proximity or you talk to them often so trying to avoid them helps a lot It is also important to acknowledge it is not easy to do but you try . However, when the argue comes to reach out, no need to fight it cause it hurts the more so better to reach out once in a while Also making myself busy would help like do the things I love

The first step is to accept your humanness -- neediness and insecurity are part of the human condition - and part of heartbreak.To reverse the self damage, actively engage in radical self acceptance -- accept yourself unconditionally, warts and all. Don't expect to be perfect. Perfectionism sets you up for self-disappointment -- an insidious form of self abandonment. Stop looking to other people, including your ex, to validate your worth. You must do that yourself, especially at this painful time of heartbreak when the person you seek validation from has disposed of you. No one is responsible to make you secure, but you. Accept that now is the time to institute self love. Don't expect this to happen buy osmosis. Vow to stop laying your needs for love and acceptance at your lover's feet, and take 100 percent responsibility to give yourself the love and esteem that you need (that's why they're called self love and self esteem). Take advantage of this time of heightened insecurity to learn how to give yourself security. Realize that it's nobody else's job - especially now that your lover has abdicated this role in your life. Only you can do this. To promote emotional self-reliance and comprehensive healing, implement the tools of abandonment recovery. They will help you take self loving actions that build toward an empowering new relationship with yourself.

write a letter like you two dated. cause.. what makes you feel like it is a wrong thing to do? see? nothing. tell them how you feel in that letter, all you need to let out! get angry, maybe sad. ‘losing’ them, whatever it means can be hard, so acknowledging it can be life saving. i, personally, have wrote several letters like these and believe me or not - after crying over few of them i just accepted that maybe we just don’t match. another thing that you can do is talking about it with someone - cause seriously, we all have fallen in love with someone we never dated at least once. it’s hard! and i’m sure there are people that your can reach out to!
