Need help getting over the fact that I will probably never mee anyone here due to distance, I have accepted that fact, but it doesn't seem to help

    Well I've never had a crush on someone on here but may I suggest treating it like any other crush you need to get over. Perhaps just go with it, to a ridiculous extent too. Like over like the person, make yourself think about them non-stop like any other thought would be blasphemous. In my experience you'll eventually get sick of the person and not even want to see their face just because your tired of thinking of them. It works better then the opposite too because when you try not to think of someone they seem to become the only thing you can think of. Of course if that doesn't work you could always take a break from talking to the person on here, maybe try and forget em but not intentionally.

    The latter is easier since he like completely ignores me but that just makes me want him more I like what I cannot have. Why is forbidden fruit so tempting.

    Well on here its real easy, I read every single one of their posts and stalk their page/pictures. In the real world hoever, it is a little more complicated. I may steal a fleeting glance or two, but other than that I just ignore it.

    For the time beign I never had a crush on EC, but I think that if I did, i would do the same as I used to deal with this when it happend in my offline life.
    What I used to do (that hadn't happened to me for a while) is to cope with it until it pass.
    I tried to see the guy less if possible and to keep myself busy doing something else. But when I couldn't get away from them, I tried to enjoy the time I had with them, trying to expect no more.
    Maybe you can try to be less online for a while if it helps.
    Anyway, handling a crush is difficult and could be painful. Allow yourself to feel what you feel and to be sad, but be sure you'll find the right person for you one day, in your real life.
    I wish you all the best, Eleanor

    It's hard to deal with - but you have to just tell yourself not to latch onto someone. Everyone on here has their little crushes on other members. Everyone :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: . You're not alone ^__^ .

    Well, you're bound to move on eventually, probably when you develop a crush on someone else :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: So I say don't do anything out of the usual. If you actively try to stop having a crush on them, this will mean that you are thinking about them even more. For example, if I say "don't think about the pen" you'll start thinking about the pen. Maybe try to occupy your mind with something else, but be careful that you don't associate the something else with the guy, because this also won't help :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
    Just keep busy :slight_smile:
