I went out with this guy for maybe a week about a year ago. He dumped me two reasons. The first was that he didn't have time for a girlfriend. The second reason he dumped me was because I could never answer questions when he was around. I was totally stupid for this guy, to the point that I couldn't make intelligent speech. Until a couple of days ago, we hadn't spoken in over a year. He got my hopes up, and now I'm basically obsessed with him. Can someone give me advice about how I can get rid of this obsession and get on with my life?

My best advice is what I've had to do in my personal situations like this, and that is to cut all ties. I know it's very hard and hurts sometimes, but the thing is that when you're obsessed like this peopel will, and do, take advantage of you. It's just how the world works.
If you drop him entirely and move on, when you're stable again and have someone or something else to focus on, you might be able to have a friendship with him. [ pseudophun's advice column | Ask pseudophun A Question ]
