i have a bf. he moved away but i still see him regularly.
in the meantime i have developed a crush on an older man - i think as a reaction to being away from bf. how can i forget him and focus on my bf?
Crushes are natural and fine to have. It's even okay to enjoy a harmless crush, but if they become awkward or inappropriate the best thing to do is stay away from the person.
So, see and speak this other man as little as possible. If you work with him, ignore him on your breaks and avoid socializing with him. Keep whatever your contact with him is strictly professional.
Also, fill your time better. Spend time with platonic friends. Take up a hobby. Pick some good books to read and give your brain less quite time to dwell and fantasize about the crush.
In the end, as long as you don't 'do' anything and your relationship with your boy stays strong and healthy, don't beat yourself up about a crush. We all have them. It's only human. We just need to deal with them properly. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
