How do i stop this intense crush?

So I started this apprentice training at some place and there's this girl that works in the office and she is relly good looking she helped me with some work and that (not why I like her) and the way she acts/ speaks just strikes everywhere within me.

I feel this really weird crush going over myself like I can't picture myself without her and that and I don't want to turn into a creep, how do I stop it?

Important Edit: She works in the receptionist office, It'll be really inappropriate to just walk in there only to chat her up.

just stop thinking about her....occupy your mind elsewhere

It is a crush, she works in a receptionist office for an apprentice company, I'm a trainee, I can't walk in randomly and ask her out.

When you picture yourself with her, assuming you don't want anything to happen, imagine everything ending badly. This normally puts me off.

wtf, looooooool.
Well then, I think the best remedy would be to find out if she liked you back.

Because obsessing over a person is not healthy and can turn depressive.

If she does then you should pursue her, if not. Then leave it, you will get over her eventually.

Ah, the old pessimist method.

It'd probably just be better to talk to her, get to know her a little, become friends and all that but if you really want to cut all emotions off I'd say the best way would be to find someone else. Meet lots of new people and find someone you'd be comfortable advancing with, you'll forget about your current crush in no time.

Fap, then think again

It's what I used to do before I learned how to play it cool...

another option you got is to think about and talk to other girls you like, this will put some of the load off her in your mind because at the minute, I'm guessing she makes up 100% of the girls you think about, whereas if you start talking to another 4 girls then the weight will drop to 20% and she will no longer be manifested in your mind.

Could you read my edit in the original post? Also this is how I forgot about my old crush down my church.

Done it. I still like her, she's so nice, I just can't see her in a sexual way.

Add every single person at work on Facebook (including her) so it looks perfectly innocent then start a conversation there. Be like "Hey, thanks for helping me [insert whatever, idk, its your life] earlier" then see where the conversation goes. Maybe you'll hit it off and everything'll be just peachy or maybe you'll hate her personality and never see her that way ever again; either way's fine.

She must be a keeper then :tongue:
I guess preoccupy yourself with other things,
or maybe try and reason with yourself that crushing on her won't benefit you in any way whatsoever
