    It's killing me softly.


    How do you get over that stage where you can't find anybody remotely as attractive as that one person who you've been mad for?

    I'm seriously stuck, I can't find anybody else who I think is even close to her, even celebrities.

    How do you cure this syndrome?

    I don't know, but I empathise with you completely because you sound like me. Once I've fallen for someone, no one else seems attractive to me and I'm certainly not interested in anyone else.

    It's literally a fate worse than death.

    I know she's not the bets looking woman in the world, but it seems that way.

    Hahaha, this sounds EXACTLY like what's happening to me at the moment. I wish I had some kind of advice to offer but I really don't. I was initially attracted to him and I now think the world of him. I can even tell he's somebody that I don't get on with personality wise (That's the rational side of me). The irrational side however (which is most of the time) just sees this perfect human being who I should be with for the rest of my life. Sad times. Sadly it's unrequited.

    I know it's a pain to hear, but I think for situations like this, the only reasonable solution is to wait. Time after all is the best healer. x
