I have feelings for a man but he is out of my reach.

I know we can't be together as he is just starting his career as a doctor and I am much younger than him.

He will be leaving to another city to continue his residency in seven months and I will be starting my third year at university in a week.

We won't be seeing each other at the hospital anymore because of me starting school.

This is a one sided love ordeal. I don't know if he feels the same way I do and I don't know how I can find out (I don't know if I should find out.)

I just want to forget about him and not feel so empty inside whenever I'm not around him.

I have such strong feelings for him that I can't show for fear of rejection and I really think we are at very different points in our lives.

I really think we have no chance of being together... until perhaps I also advance in my career.

I think I am falling in love with him but I want it to stop because I don't want to feel as empty as I feel now.

What can I do to get over him?

babyzbird agony auntI agree with Intrigued3000; you should ask for his contact information and give your's in return so at least you can remain friends.

As for getting over him I suggest keeping busy, try to keep your thoughts about anything else then him, and spend time with your friends. Try to enjoy your life and have fun.

In time as long as you keep busy and don't obsess about him you will get over him.

Good Luck!

Intrigued3000 agony auntYou are infatuated with him. I don't think this is love, but infatuation still brings pain, especially if the feelings are not reciprocated. I think you should be brave and ask to keep in touch with him. Give him your e-mail and phone number and ask for his. The least that can happen is a friendship.
