Relax, let yourself think about him/her but don't fantasize. Accept that there is a connection but don't let it controll you. Enjoy the feeling of conection woth someone even if they don't conect with you at this point in time.

You should try and move on. I know it may seem like you never will, but I promise that in 10 years you won't even remember him or her.

First, realize that you are grieving, and accept that, and allow yourself to grieve. All too often, we aren't patient with ourselves and give ourselves time and the right to feel our feelings because we think they make us weak, selfish, e.t.c. The proper thing to do is to know that the only thing those feelings make you is human, and that you have a right to experience them.

So one technique I use is to think something about the person that turned you off. You can imagine him/her being smelly if smell is a turn off quality. I think we drawn to the person because we keep thinking about the good qualities of them, but if you have conjure up disgusting stuff about them, your mind will try to avoid it.

Know that time heals all wounds. Reach out to your family and friends. Take care of yourself: get out of bed, shower, get dressed, take a walk outside, get enough sleep, eat right, etc. When you don't take care of yourself things can really feel intensified and worse, believe me! Know that things aren't definitive- meaning the problems you have and feel now won't be the same problems you'll be experiencing in 5 years; and that you'll find love

try to do things you like! It could be singing, dancing, writing, exercise, anything! Also try to surround yourself with people who make you happy and will make you forget about that person!

The best thing to do is try and distract yourself. It's normal to think about someone you miss, but it's important to take care of yourself first. Take a long walk, take a bathe, watch some movies.

Go out with some friends, take your mind off him/her and enjoy your day with people that make you happy and do things that make you feel happy. For example go have a girls/guys night out, read your favorite book, dance in your room and express yourself through you dancing, or watch your favorite movie. Something that you love.

It depends , are they your significant other, a crush, or just an ex that you can get over? Thinking about someone all the time isn't necessarily bad . If it's a crush and feelings are mutual just go for it . Even if it doesn't go the way you want it to at least you can say you tried :) if it's your lover , don't worry about that , it's normal :) but if it's an ex ( which is also normal too) if their still approachable just talk to them about it without directly saying it or just do things to get your mind off of it , things you wouldn't usually do that are fun :)
