Are you finding it difficult to go an hour - or even a minute - without thinking about the person you like? If you already know that your feelings for that person are going nowhere, then thinking about them constantly will only make you more sad and miserable. The good news is that if you try, you will be able to spend more time doing the things you enjoy, being with the people you care about, and loving your life again. This will take time, but with enough determination, you will soon forget the person you like.

Steps

Part 1 of 3: Adjust your thoughts

1. 

   Release your feelings. If you want to forget someone you like, the first thing you need to do is admit yourself that you have feelings for that person. If you deny how much that person means to you, you will just keep those intense emotions in your heart instead of letting them go. Take the time to cry, to talk to a close friend about it, to acknowledge how hurt you have been, and to accept your feelings.
   • Write down what you are feeling, if that helps. If you don't want to confess to a friend, going through a diary can also make you feel better.
   • If you're going to be upset for a while because your feelings for that person have gone nowhere, that's okay. Let your friends know that you will be lying at home for a while, and don't force yourself to get along if you're simply not in the mood.
   • It is said that after a few weeks or so you should stop indulging in sadness and start making some social interactions. If you spend too much time alone with your emotions, you will probably only feel worse.

2. 

   
   
   Forget anger and suffering. Perhaps you have many reasons to feel angry or upset. Perhaps the person you like really hurts you. You're probably pretty sure things will work out, but they won't. Perhaps the person you like ended up on a date with one of your friends and you got angry with both of them. These feelings will of course be present in your current situation, but that doesn't mean they are beneficial or that they can help you let go and move on.
   • Write down all of the reasons why you feel angry and in pain. Acknowledging your pain is essential to forgetting about it. Once you understand where all of your negative emotions come from, you will be able to begin to deal with them, one by one.
   • If you come into contact with someone you like, don't let them see how angry and sad you are feeling. The best thing you can do is act completely indifferent, as if you don't care what the person wants to do. If you continue to pretend indifference, you will be amazed how quickly you actually start feeling that way.

3. 

   
   
   Focus on the person's most negative aspects. Stop thinking about how good looking, interesting or sweet the person you like is every time it comes to mind. Instead, focus on all the bad things about the person, from their quirky fashion sense or ability to being completely malicious with complete strangers. Make a list of all of these if it is helpful. When the person comes to mind, evoke all of these negative thoughts instead of the positive ones. This will help you remember that the person you like isn't exactly that great after all.
   • If you think the person you like is perfect and that you really can't think of anything bad about them, then guess what? You don't really know the person well. No one in the world is perfect and everyone has flaws.
   • The more you think about the bad side of the person, the sooner you'll find that the two of you are not compatible after all.

4. 

   
   
   Understand that you deserve better. You might think that you and that person would be the best couple in the world, but that's not the case. If the two of you really belonged to each other, then it would have happened, right? Whatever the reason, you and the person went nowhere, and the reason seems to be just because you were too good for them. The person you like is not your partner, and once you realize that, you should be able to find someone you deserve.
   • Of course, you've probably heard all your friends tell you over and over again that you deserve more than that, but you won't be able to understand it until you realize it for yourself.

5. 

   Remember how awesome you are. If you are upset because your feelings for that person are not working, then you may need to motivate yourself. You must be humiliating yourself, and feel as though you are unworthy because you are not being with the person you like, but that's not true. Remember your good qualities, focus on the great friends and opportunities in your life, and don't forget about your favorite personality traits. Always tell yourself that you are a great person who only deserves the best - and "the best of all" is simply not the person you like!
   • Keeping a positive outlook is extremely important in this case. If you focus on all the good things in life and your personality instead of the ones you don't have, then you'll be able to let go and move on faster than when you only saw the the worst in all circumstances.

Part 2 of 3: Get rid of the person you like from your life

1. 

   Stop talking to someone you like. It may sound obvious to stop talking to the person if you want to forget about them, but you will most likely still talk to the person even if you know this is not good for you. You don't have to be downright rude, but take the initiative to avoid the person you like and limit your conversation as much as possible. Stop texting, calling, or simply stop and say hi to the person. The sooner you stop meeting and hearing the person's voice, the sooner you can push them out of your life.

Viewing pictures of your crush is sure to make you feel worse, so stop torturing yourself.
   • Give yourself a limited amount of time - for example, you will spend only 15 minutes a day surfing Facebook. If you want to spend that time following the people you like, then you won't be able to see what the people who really care about you are up to.

4. 

   Avoid places the person might go. While there is no need to completely change your schedule, if you really want to forget your crush, then you should try to avoid all the places where you know you'll meet them. Don't go to the person's favorite restaurant or the cinema if you're pretty sure they'll be there on Friday night. If you know they're going to a party and you're still feeling really hurt, then find something else to do.
   • This does not mean that the person you like "won" and that you can't do anything interesting anymore; it just means you have to avoid them for a while until you feel better.

Going to lunch with a new friend instead of old friends. Start a new hobby. Go to school or work in a different way. While these changes may not be directly related to the person you like, just trying to get rid of the thoughts that once haunted you by that person can help you begin to see the world in a way. completely different and suppress thoughts from revolving around the person.
   • Think about it: is there a certain time of the day that you think about the person you like the most? If so, could you do something else instead during such times so that you can forget them? For example, if you always look out the window on the bus home and think troubling things about your crush, find a new uplifting album and listen to them all the way home. it becomes a positive experience instead of spending time thinking about your crush.

While your social activities don't have to be so dense that you don't have a moment for yourself, try to spend more time with the people you love so you can feel like you be grateful for all the positive relationships in your life - instead of being haunted by a failed relationship.
   • Don't be alone on a Friday or Saturday night or you might want to be with someone you like again. Instead, hang out with your friends, and you'll be so happy that you'll forget everything about that person.
