A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

How could I have been so stupid:( I actually thought he liked me.?

He'd watch me all the time and look away as soon as I look at him. Always friendly and chatty to everyone else but me.

He'd stare into my eyes and I actually thought there was something between us.

He'd act so shy and quiet around me. He'd always tell me things about himself to impress me. last time we spoke he said he finds that i dont speak to him. but he doesnt know the reason why im quiet around him is cause i like him so much he makes me shy:( We got talking today, We had a convo and he doesn't smile or look at me like that anymore. It was more like friends. I've noticed that he's nice and friendly with everyone else but he teases me and just say things to see my reaction alot.

He asked what I was doing this weekend and I asked him and he said he'd be travelling to another city and I asked what for he said to see his lady friend and I said nice.

I'm kinda relieved in a way cause now I know it was all in my head and he doesn't like me like that.

How do I forget this guy? I like him so much but now I feel like enough is enough. But he's all I think about:(

I hate it:( I want to cry but the tears won't come:(

Hugs..x

oldbag agony auntHi

You just got carried away in fantasy land thats all, you had a 'crush'. Ime sure we have all had crushes.

Just decide thats enough of your time he has had.As your clearly ready to meet somebody then start a spring clean of your life and get out there ready to date.

Have a few nights out, go running or join a running club.Find out if there are any sponsored runs in your area comin up,register for a half marathon even!You will still keep fit and,bonus, meet new people.

Good Luck

Tisha-1 agony auntGo ahead and throw a pity party. Put on the saddest break up music and maudlin movies and just WALLOW in it, for an entire evening. Write down all your fantasies about him and what could have been. Draw a picture of him and you and the children you might have had together. Then ceremoniously burn them (safely, of course). As the flames consume the paper, recognize that what you had wasn't as substantial as the paper the dreams were written on.

Then, in the morning, wake up and give thanks that you found out when you did. Go on about your day, plan some interesting things with friends each evening.

If a thought of him comes across your mind, notice it. Say to yourself, 'I am thinking about him again. I wonder what triggered it.' Then just watch your thoughts for a bit. See what comes up. See if there is anything new, or you are merely going over old ground.

Every time you start thinking about him, become aware of that, and just patiently observe your thinking process.

I'm guessing thinking about him is distracting you from something else going on in your life but you have to become aware of that, through patient self observation and acceptance.

I have some links on my profile that may help you out. Good luck.
