I saw him at my driving school and after a week of class was over, I knew I wasn't going to see him again. I was bummed and a couple days I was still wishing I could see him. But as time went by, I got on my with my life. I have better stuff to do than be bummed over a boy that is out my league. It's hard, but you just need time. Do activities that will get your mind off of him. Hang out with friends and it will pass over. However, you will never stop thinking about him. One event will bring something up and you will remember him. It's just life. I still remember the guy I liked when I was in Elementary school...long time ago! But like I said...you have better things and more guys to seek. Don't dwell on this one specific guy...your missing out! [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]

It's been said before, but occupy yourself with different things. Pick up a new hobby. Learn to sew, draw pictures, read a book, become involved with volunteer work, get a job, ect. Hanging out with friends more is not always the best idea because they may bring him up in conversation.

Be spontaneous and go to the mall and flirt with any and all cute guys. give him your number and send him flirty text messages. You will eventually find someone who means a whole lot more to you. The way i mentioned above would probable not be the best way to find someone for a long term relationship, but hey the thrill of a new guy will have your mind on him and other things.

Ava29 answered Wednesday July 16 2008, 7:25 pm: One of the things I've been able to do is keep my priorities straight and think about other things as much as I can.
If your laying in bed before you go to sleep, put some head phones on or watch tv for a little bit to distract yourself.
Or MAKE yourself think of something/someone else.
If you start to think of him right away think of like, what your going to wear the next day, what you've got to get done, how good your day was, what you'd like to improve, or even think of ALL the really good things going on in your life.
During the day time, keep your self busy.
I think the biggest thing is to never give yourself the time to think about him.
Even if you can't go anywhere draw a picture, listen to music, clean your room, ANYTHING. Just keep your mind busy on other things and eventually it'll become natural and you hopefully won't think about him at all.
For me it takes time though in the beginning. I REALLY have to make sure that I don't allow myself to continue to think about the guy and it really did work.
For me I would dance or work out or just do things to improve myself or the good, nice stuff I could do for all my friends and family so my mind was constantly going and thinking about positive things that I didn't have time to think about the guy whether my thoughts about him were good or bad.
Anyway, I just know how annoying that could be and those were the things that worked best for me, but not everyone can do that, so maybe someone else on here can give you better options. =)
