Thread: How do I stop liking a girl while also maintaining our friendship?

We've known each other for three years, we talk every day, I like her, she has a boyfriend.

How do I stop liking her while also maintaining our friendship?

It seems like avoiding her and telling her are not options (and getting a girlfriend for the sake of moving on is not an option either), so what else is there to do?

technically, there is no way but to face it.

keep busy and occupied with other friends. eventually you'll get over it, and fall for someone else. she has a boyfriend, so you do need to move on, but doesn't mean u have to stop being friends. learn how to like her only as a friend and nothing more. respect the fact she is taken.

Well you don't need a girlfriend but you can go on dates with people Going on one date or two dates even doesn't mean that a girl is your girlfriend.

Just because you kiss someone doesn't mean they are your girlfriend.

Explore the field man, stop obsessing about a girl who is taking and just be her friend.

I know I know... easier said than done. But I find it impossible to be just friends with a girl you like... only time really works. I had a childhood friend that I used to be head over heels for but I just focused on the things I didn't like about it and I was able to just be her friend lol.

When you start remembering a good time you had with your crush, convince yourself it wasn't all that great by remembering a much better time you experienced with someone else.
Cross out or erase his/her name anywhere you might have written it (e.g your notebook, your textbook, the wall of your bedroom, etc.)
Try to minimize contact with your crush.
Focus on your other interests.
