if you try looking for ways to get rid of it, you never will.
some love is meant to stay. it just cannot vanish unless you live a dog's life.
but then i guess even dog's have their attachments. love isnt something to get rid of. it will make you all vulnerable if you let go of it!
i'd say keep it. for the warm sunshine and the warm fuzziness! on a very cold day!

Find the answer to this question that has plagued humans forever, and you will be the most famous person in history.

I've heard it said: Falling in love is easy, climbing out is the hard part.
Good luck!

First off...no contact with this person...that means don't see him, talk to him, write to him....the hardest thing is seeing/being around him, knowing how you feel, versus the way you feel.

The way our minds work...once you are not being constantly reminded of him, it will become easier to move on....and your feelings will subside....Love, like many other things need nurtured, and if it isn't, it will die.

That pain is not love. It is fear. Keep the love, ditch the fear.

make the choice not to.... love is a choice... its gonna take time and commitment but you can stop loving someone... think about it... its not like you loved the same person your whole life and if love isnt a choice then why was this person able to stop loving you???
Choice Choice...
I get tired of people saying that you have no choice in who you love... so no true ... its not wise to love someone who cheats on you or beats you or is mean to you and some women stay in these situation because they think they love them... when really they are making the choice to

good luck

I understand how you feel because I am also trying to fall out of love with someone who does not love me. It is hard but I agree with what everyone else is saying, you have to cut off contact and out of sight out of mind eventually.

You won't forget him completely but your heart will heal with time and also, eventually, you will meet someone else and then your memories will fade even more.

Until then though, do fun things with friends, get busy at work/school, etc. Try to take your mind off things and cut off all contact.

i like the way the singers Big and Rich put it "you never stop loving someone you just start loving someone else"-- i know how you feel and wish for you the fastest recovery through your feelings-- it still hurts a little here and it has been many many years for me --but i don't regret feeling the way i do/did for this person but it has taken a while to understand that not everyone that we fall in love with will feel the same way we do

Find someone else to love, someone who will love you back. OR/AND think of something you dont love then when you picture him picture the thing you dont love over his picture blowing him away. Sounds weird I know but it works.
