Hello! I need some advice on how to get over a crush. I've meet someone who i've developed a crush on and it's been making me horrible, ever since this crush i've been getting pretty bad anxiety
It will go away with time, I promise you. One day you'll hear about them or see their face and feel nothing.
Idk if you still like this person or you want to get over them completely, but just remember that their whole character and personality exists outside of your own head.
Remind yourself not to fantasize and pay attention to the person in front of you. He gets holes in his socks sometimes like everyone else, he can get diarrhea like anyone else, he has to blow his nose sometimes, he goes home to mama and gets a kiss on the forehead...like just remember he's a regular ass person.
Search up this term called "limerence" for more advice. Hope this helps.
I too get lots of anxiety around crushes, and then I remember I actually was just psyching myself out from my own thoughts, while this person in front of me was showing me already exactly who they are.
Are you able to put physical distance between the two of you?

Imagine him at his worst. Screaming at his grandmother, spending $500 a month on onlyfans, sliding into thousands of Instagram dms.

Hey girl ❤️ Time is your best friend here. Figure out YOUR best method of letting go of them. Cold Turkey doesn't work for everyone. I was friends with a great guy for a while and fell really hard for him. He was my dream guy but, because of personal issues, we couldn't be together. He closed things off like an absolute gentleman. So I let go of him slowly, piece by piece. Maybe one day you unfollow them on social media, the next week you might throw away another memory. The next, their number. This method worked amazingly for me and now, about 2 months later, I am at peace again and he is a distant memory. I mean, I'd recommend this for crushes tbh as getting over a LTR is a more complex process. Obviously if he was a piece of **** then just go Cold Turkey because life is too short to waste time getting over trash men <3

Physical distance and deleting their contact to never contact him again helped me all the time.
Limerence is what it could be. Women are increasingly developing limerence in response to male predators who use intermittent reinforcement.
@golddustwoman is our awesome limerence guru, hopefully she'll chime in when she has a minute.
Check out her posts on limerence. 💗
