Need to get over crush

How old are you? Each age handles relationships very differently.

17

Something like that is really hard to just drop, especially if you see him everyday at school. Id say the easiest thing would be to get your mind obsessed about something else, it doesn't have to be a new crush, just find something or someone that is better than him, a way of doing this is by maybe focusing on his flaws, notice his actions or something and find something you can hate about him-- this is what I did to get over this ****boy that will not get out of my head, he will flirt and ask me out endlessly but I knew he was a player and id be stupid to start falling for him, so I focused on the way he smells like cigarettes all the time ( he is heavy smoker) . idk find your thing

So you're in college or Sixth Form by now. Your hormones are dying down but still prevalent. You're a virgin. Also hyperaware of your outer appearance which shows a lack of trust in your own self identity that you project to the world.

I would recommend poetry for all that teenage angst. Netflix binging on lesbian tv shows like Faking it because they're funny light hearted and when you're straight you can't picture him doing all that stuff the girl does. Figuring out what makes you feel sexy and confident because if you were comfortable being a tomboy you wouldn't use it as a point of him possibly not being attracted to you. Read a romance book because he would never able to live up to the character in the book. It's just impossible.

Focus on what matters. If your A Levels matter more to you, then you should put all your energy on that, not him xx

Poetry? like writing poetry? or reading? any recommendations on where to start

I am comfortable looking the way I am. Its just that every time he's with a girl, she's this gorgeous, feminine specimen. And then there me. I don't want to change myself for him, but I also know realistically he would never go for someone like me, which makes it all the more painful.

Altho ill defiantly take into consideration you Netflix advice....thank you xx

I know thats why I am most bothered by this. I am hoping to study medicine in the future and to think that a teenage crush is an obstacle.... its ridicules

Write it. Stories. Anything creative.

And then there's me.

Like that phrase shows that you are not confident in yourself and how you look because you speak as if these gorgeous feminine girls are superior to the way you portray yourself. At 17 the body is still moulding and you can look how you want with a little bit of effort. Ruby Rose hella cute for a tomboy, like you just need to take your own personal tastes and just apply them so it makes you feel like a gorgeous specimen as well

your post has me in tears. I always thought I wasn't happy with my body image but I hadn't realised it was to this extent. I will defiantly try to become a version of myself that I will come to love. thank you so much for opening my eyes

Ps Ruby Rose is just

Tbh you shouldn't feel bad about liking him, it's fine that you do. But when it gets to the point where it's making a big impact on your every day life then I would try and move on, pretend he's not there, remind yourself you have more important tasks etc.... I know i'm not in your situation and i don't know what it's like to like someone this much but it seems like you're a really nice, clever person with high ambitions and I would really try to pursue those goals. What I'm trying to say is it's no issue having a crush but, like you say, it may be an issue when it's turning more into a distraction

I'm sorry I made you cry but honestly like 17 was a time when I reinvented myself... twice and nobody judges you for it and the moment you just feel like a gorgeous specimen you start being like well, if he doesn't like me he's missing out cause I'm great.
I wish you luck on your journey and she's gorge

Its okay honestly I feel much better now having let it all out. I will become a gorgeous specimen and I will get over him. I can't thank you enough for helping me. good luck to you too on your journey xx
