My "summer love" was a disastor, we have nothing but awkward memories, and it ended really bad.. h finding out I lied about lots of stuff.. my cousins finding out i lied to them too.. and that's it, that was the end. But I can't get over it, I could probably get over the obsession with being with HIM, but I can't get over the obsession wih seeing him again and making a better impression on him,, except I probably (most likely) wont get to see him again because my mom never wants to go back (she caught me sneaking out over there..to be with him) and he probably wont want to see me again even if I travel back.. and my cousins wont let me see him again.. so really, I should get over it. But can't. All I dream about is my next impression, how to make it perfect.. but I know it wont happen, so how do I get over it?!??? thanks

You say that you probably won't see him again between everything and it ended badly so the chances of a second chance are slim at best am I right?
So don't waste time and energy thinking of could be and what if situations. My trick is to, whenever you start thinking about him, stop. Its hard but just stop, tell yourself that you shouldn't be thinking about him and think of something else. For me, as stupid as it sounds, if i was about to go to sleep and found myself starting to dream about seeing 'him' again I'd physically gesture putting him out of my mind - along the lines of Dumbledore in Harry Potter with a pensieve kinda thing haha.
But it worked! I hardly think about what's his name now ha :)
This way if you run into him again at that off chance you won't have spent x amount of months dwelling and waiting in hope - a better state of mind to be in! If you do run into him just be pleasant, don't bring up the past unless he does. The past is for yesterday, its the present you should focus on!
I hope this has been of some use, if not at least a little entertaining when picturing someone acting like a wizard in order to get over someone :)
