Why can't I stop thinking about the person when I know I don't even like them anymore?

If you cannot stop thinking about the person when you know you don't even like them anymore is because YOU ARE STILL LIKING THEM. Maybe they have done something you dislike or they hurt you, then you immediately force yourself to hate them. Perhaps they are someone you loved/liked and you guys had great memories together that you always keep remembering about all those sweet moments that keep you still living in the history.

Your feelings are not something you can just turn off. Even though you may think you dont like them anymore deep down you may still care about their wellbeing.

Your heart still yearns for that feeling that you had before. They might have played a special role in your life and it can be hard to let go of them, even if you have let go of them emotionally.

We people are a creature of habit. Sometimes even when we don't want to see that person anymore we still miss the company and the things we used to do with that person. As time goes by, we learn to move on and live a new life.

Maybe they were important in your life at one time or another. Just because you stop seeing a person doesn't mean they where never someone you cared about.

This person likely had a large part in your life for some time. We can't pick and choose our thoughts and our subconscious can bring them to mind. Keep distracting yourself and reconnect with other friends etc to keep your mind busy and in time you won't think of them anymore.

Personally, I couldn't stop thinking about my first boyfriend, even months after we'd broken up. I think it was because he was the first person I had really loved, and I will always remember him because of that.

the question you got to ask yourself is whether you feel hatred and anger towards them or is it something more complicated .... if its the first then there might be some unresolved issues that needs to be sorted otherwise it may be some hung up expectation or something different
