(14, Female)
I've been going out with Michael for almost three months. Its crazy, we spend hours talking about absolutley nothing, just laughing at the stupid jokes we can make up. Just seeing him makes my heart pound. During class, I can't stop thinking about until the next time I'll get to see him, which affects my grades unforunatley. When I hug him goodbye, I already miss him. If we just hung up on the phone, I get sad like I haven't seen him in months. Sometimes, my mind just races about thoughts of him, and I absolutley dread the weekends when I can't see him.
Why is this? How can I get my life somewhat back to normal?

Do not let a guy determine who you are, and what you do! [ kaycilane's advice column | Ask kaycilane A Question ]

It will settle down the longer you go out together and the magic unfortunately does wear off. So hold onto these feelings for as long as you can but you do have to live as well.
Whilst you are at school you will need to focus your mind on the task at hand, and although at the moment it's not easy, you can do it with a bit of willpower.
Try tapping the back of one of your hands with the fingers of the other hand. (Obviously out of sight if possible). Do this if you find your mind wandering towards Michael, telling yourself to concentrate. A little bit of practice is all you need.
