There is this guy whom I really like but he doesn't feel the same for me too. I regret the day when I used to stay away when he shows sweetness to me but days passed, without communication between us, I feel like I'm missing him and now I don't know what to do because he's not the same. He'd changed. Before he's sweet but now he's like someone else. Now, I decided to forget him but I don't know what to do. I just regret the day that I rejected him.

Bianca, you are Awesome! Disagree? Why? Fix that! :-P What is your 'purpose,' your life-mission, the destiny you were put on this Earth to fulfill? Focus on that! You need any help finding it?

Hey Bianca, I dont think there is an easy way to forget someone. Our brains are tricky. Have you ever tried to sleep and as much as you try you just cant. Our brains do the opposite. So the harder you try to forget, the more you remember. In all honesty if you want to forget, I would just accept it and go from there. Dont try to forget. Let it take its course. Eventually you'll work it through. Its actually healthier for you to accept it, think about it, face all the issues between you two and then move on. This way you arent trying to avoid your feelings. You are being honest with yourself and facing the end of something. Its a part of life. No matter how much we hate it we must face all our problems head on. Good luck. Happy MyLotting dl

There is no easy way to deliberately forget and as a therapist, I would say that it is not a good thing to push things out of the mind. Allow yourself to dwell on the person you have feelings for. Let your mind think without fighting what is there. The thoughs will go of their own accord when you have fully processed them in your mind. Remember that rejection will be buried if you force forgetting prematurely. Recognize that we all feel rejected from time to time. It is a lesson for us to learn that makes us into stronger people, if we don't push it all down before we are finished with it. It has happened in the past, and it will happen again, for you, for me, for all of us.. Love and light to you... _Derek

hi, maybe it will take so long, but later on you will forget him, try to hang out with your friends and family, or just meet some people or find new friends.

Why you want to forget?? See..he is not your enemy right?? Just cherish about your friendship. Its a good thing and best of all things. So, I will say give your best to this friendship. And I believe somethings in life is very hard to achieve. Think as if, this relationship was never existing. But dont forget about the friendship. Be good with the person and keep your friendship in a very good way. See...life is a very long way...So you never know when things can change in your life.

Forgetting someone can be something that is easier said than done. Our past will always remain to be a part of us. We can not change it. forgetting someone will not change the course of events or how we feel. Moving on with life can help us to heal. it doesn't mean that we have to forget.

..Hi Bianca, My thought is that the best way to forget someone is to stop trying so hard to forget them. Let time take it, in a little while or longer the memory of the person will fade. If you think you love them, it may take longer. Find something that is of interest to you to involve yourself in, take a course, find a new hobby, something that will stimulate your mind and take you in another direction. You stated that he has changed so you are not dealing with the same person who you liked at one time. So basically you are yearning for a ghost. Visit www.socyberty.com/letting-go-stop-chasing-ghosts/ Keep moving, there is nothing there for you, the person you liked does not exist anymore. Take good care.

the first way is always giving it time, most of the times why we get hanged on someone in our thoughts is that we still have to learn something from the time we were together and while this lesson is not learned, they don't go away There's also the not forgiving, we feel we love but actually we didn't forgive them so they keep coming back and the third is we feeling guilty. I once really thought about someone for 6 years: i wanted to say i was sorry, i didn't love him and only when i told him i was sorry he just vanished now in practice to think about their bad sides, the horrible moments and to think about that persons's flaws is the FASTEST way to really realize there are other and better guys outhere

Hi, It is really hard to forget someone. If really want to foget him try to concentrate on other things. You can hang up with your friends n things which you really like n love to do. Slowly you can forget that person. There may be some other person some where in this world wating for you. So don't loose hopes, you will get(may be) nice friend better than him.

Well, that is a really sad thing for you. I experienced the same thing in the past. It feels so terrible, especially if you see one another everyday at school or at work. The best way to forgot him is by staying away from him. Yes, distance is the key. Like in my experience, I always feel terrible because I always see her, but when I left our school and I started working, I began forgetting her because I focused on my work and I met many people. After some years, I saw her again and I don't feel anything about her. I successfully moved on. Well, I do hope that you do. ^_^

Nice question Bianca......whats the easy way to forget someone? I`il with on old idea :YOU CAN`T RUN AWAY FROM MEMORIES.The best way to forget someone is to face situation , reconcilied with the idea that you`re wrong.Many people will advise you to ocupy your mind with another things but that is not a answer at your question.After a while you will remember and you will arive in same situation.My question for you is : Can we really forget someone?Think about this question.Have you ever forget someone? The idea is not to forget the persone , the idea is to get used to what do you feel about him.After a while you`ll see.Will be much better.I hope you will learn something about that.In life we can`t run away.We must face off!

Forgetting someone you love is really hard. If you really want to forget him, try doing things that will keep your mind busy so that you won't have time thinking about that person. You also have to avoid him, spend more time with other people you love like your friends :3

it is really difficult to forget someone especially if you still see him around. i think the best way is to spend more time with your friends and family. or study hard if you are still on studies. put your heart and attention to something that you like. get a sports that will take your time and energy. i think it will be difficult to forget him, and it takes some time. best wishes.

Hi Well, it is a sad thing that he's gone now that you realized that he matters to you, too. There's nothing you can do about it right now but to let him go. If ever he'll come back then, he is really for you. for the meantime, move on. Try to involve yourself to other activities than do not involve him too. And do not think of him, please...Whenever we are alone ,we have that tendency to become really sentimental and to think of those people or things that matters to us but we lost. Stop doing that. Keep yourself busy.Meet other people and make new friends. Who knows you might find another guy who will make you happy again. Besides, there is a saying that if you want to forget your man, date another. goodluck.

Hello friend, actually in your discussion your not mentioned if this is love just you mentioned sweetness which for me a common or longing for companion. So I can't considered love which I admit very hard to forget. Here is you miss something you done with him before a sweetness, like other advice start mingling with other friends, new friends and groups, don't ever compare your present doing into your previous in order to forget such memories.. It is not quick as you expected but for sure it is guarantee. see you around

Hi there bianca! I could say it takes another man to forget the other man. It worked with me,I was able to forget my first love because I of my husband. It's hard really to forget someone whose been special to you,it will take time,I tell you. Just don't get sentimental about it. Open your eyes and heart to others. May I also suggest you go out with friends,don't watch love or romantic movies as this might remind you of him again. See you around!

Hello Bianca, For me, the best option to forget someone is to keep yourself busy. You can make yourself busy by doing things of your interest, or hanging out with your friends. I've done this before and it worked out.

If you are really meant for each other, whatever happens, destiny will make its way. Try to focus your attention to other things to keep you busy. Try also to entertain new friends. This might help you to switch your attention and forget about him ;)
