How do I forget my crush?
The story
I have a crush on someone in my class, and honestly, I find him really attractive. He is not only good-looking, but he is also very kind and respectful. There was one moment that really stayed with me: when he had to explain something to me, he did not touch my notebook until I clearly said yes. That might sound like a small thing, but it showed me how considerate and respectful he is. He also has such a sweet smile, and whenever I see it, I cannot help but feel a little happier.
Another thing I really appreciate about him is that when he does help me with something, he is always respectful and never makes me feel uncomfortable. He does not help me very often, but when he does, he never gets too close to me or crosses any boundaries unless I clearly say yes. Unlike some of the other boys in my class, he is thoughtful about my personal space and makes sure I feel comfortable. That makes me feel safe around him, and it shows that he genuinely respects me as a person.
However, I have a problem. He is in the same class as me, and I really do not want to get into a relationship with someone from my own class. I am worried that it could become awkward or complicated, especially if things do not work out. On top of that, our religions do not match, which makes me feel even more unsure about whether anything could ever happen between us. Even though I know that a relationship may not be a good idea, I still cannot stop my feelings.
What makes it even harder is that I always feel jealous when he talks to other girls but not to me. I know that jealousy is not fair, because he is allowed to talk to whoever he wants, but I cannot control the way I feel. Sometimes I see him laughing or having conversations with other girls, and I immediately start overthinking everything. I wonder why he does not talk to me in the same way, even though I know that this does not necessarily mean anything.
I really want to learn how to forget him or at least stop having such strong feelings for him. I know that I cannot force my feelings to disappear overnight, but I want to focus on myself and not let this crush take over my thoughts. I am trying to remind myself that just because someone is kind, attractive, and respectful does not automatically mean that we are meant to be together. I also know that it is important to respect my own boundaries and the things that matter to me, such as not wanting to date someone from my class and considering our different religions.
I have had crushes before, but I have never felt this strongly about anyone in my whole life. In my sixteen years, I have never had a crush like the one I have on him. It feels different because it is not only about his looks or his smile; it is also about the way he treats me and how safe and respected I feel around him. That is why it is so hard for me to simply forget him, even though I know that a relationship may not be the right thing for us.
So please how can i forget him?
