I've had a crush on this person for a terribly long time and they give less than a damn about me. They may not be aware that I still like them (I do everything in my power not to show it, I do have some self-respect) but I cannot get rid of this emotional attachment and it's hurting me.Problem: we go to a small college and have the same group of friends. It's difficult to completely avoid people on this campus to begin with, and if I attempt to stay away from him, it will also mean avoiding the rest of my friends because as likely as not he'll be with them. I have no idea what to do here. What would you do?

 You act politely toward him.... just as you would (behave toward) any other of your circle of friends.... BUT,...
... When you have to look at him (and you usually get all giddy when you do, no?).... instead of HIM, visualize in your mind Freddie Kruger......
That should do the trick...
Good luck..

 to be quite honest, you may just continue to have this crush on this guy until you move on and develop feelings for someone else. sometimes it happens like that.
since seeing him is unavoidable, i would just give it a bit more time and just know that eventually, this will all just be a distant memory. i doubt you'll even remember him in a year or two.

 Difficult situation. Avoid the group while in college but do things with them outside school that way u can arrange n kno who u will see ahead of time so u can avoid. Or u can confront this person face to face n tell them whats on ur mind.
