*OP's Original Title*

I have had previous posts about this problem. I just graduated from high school and I have been in love with one of my teachers there. My story is really long and I am not going to post it all here because I don't want to bore you guys. But I just want you guys know that I would do anything to be that man. My attraction is not a physical attraction but rather a moral one. He is not married and he has no kids. But the problem is that this man is old enough to be my father!

I followed the advices that I got from people here and I decided not to tell him anything. I thought that time would take care of everything. I thought I was going to forget about him after a couple of weeks of not seeing him. Unfortunately, I am still thinking about him! He is on my mind 24/7. I have been busy with college orientations and vacations and none of that help me forget about him. I still have fantasies about him. I feel like he is everywhere with me. I still think I have a chance with him. I can't see myself with anyone else. I have met more that ten new good-looking guys recently and I can't even imagine myself with them. I can't imagine myself being with anybody but him. Help me please! What should I do? Will these feelings go away? I haven't seen him for a month now.

I remember you and your earlier posts about this.

This has gone beyond a normal crush and is now classified as a love addiction. It is abnormal behvior on your part, it really is, and I think you need to get to the bottom of this in therapy. I am not trying to be rude or hurt your feelings, not even calling you crazy, but you clearly need help psychologically to get your thinking in line.

Seriously, girl, this has gone on long enough. You can google love obsession, obsessive love, love addiction, etc, but the best thing to do would be to make an appointment with your doctor and ask for a referral to a Cognitive Behavioral Psychologist. This could be due to an underlying undiagnosed condition like Obsessive Compulsive Disorder or Depression...both of which are highly treatable.

LadyRedBBW agony auntTry looking at what it is about this guy you like so much, and see if you can find a guy who possesses the attributes you like about this man. Personally, I dont think there is anything wrong with dating an older man, if you are capable mentally of handleing something as such. But, I would suggest you not tell him...
