Really hung up on a friend

I'm really obsessively in love with one of my friends at uni. We are good friends, but she knows how I feel and is not interested. But even though I know I have no chance, my life still seems to revolve around her. I think about her all the time, judge myself by whether I am able to make her laugh or not, get depressed if I don't see her, even choose my activities with the motivation of having something interesting to talk to her about. I just need to get over her but I don't know how, cos I think otherwise it might ruin our friendship.

Hmmm, you really need to make yourself realise that nothing could ever happen, so you are wasting your time. You need to do other things - see other friends, choose activities that mean you'll have no contact with her/nothing to talk about. Theres no magic way to get over someone, you just have to get a grip of yourself and whenever you start thinking about her, stop yourself and do something else, eventually (hopefully) you'll get over her but its going to take a while and requires a lot of determination. :smile:

Edit: Oh, and clingy guys are about as attractive to girls as syphilis, unless you want to lose a close friend, you need to back off and control yourself.
