Any good tips/ways to distract yourself/not think about someone?

1 Answer

Answer :

oy, that really stinks. unfortunately I would have to stop being around that friend to get my mind off of it. maybe try cooling the friendship for awhile, and try making some new friends (and meeting new girls). don’t feel bad about your feelings, it just doesn’t end up the way we want it to sometimes. heartbreak is a fact of life for all of us. it might take some time depending on how long you’ve had these feelings for this girl, accept this and move on.
