Being that you have envisioned a life with your crush, it is so hard to see her give all of her attention to others.

You want to be at the center of her attention.

There is a yearning for the life you have envisioned in your mind alongside this crush to become a reality.

When you see her giving all of her attention to others except you, it’s a betrayal to what you believe you are to each other.

Although she is your crush, you already believe that she is your girlfriend.

Your mind doesn’t know the difference between a crush and a girlfriend.

The emotions you have felt and continue to feel for your crush are akin to those one would feel for a girlfriend.

As a consequence, your mind doesn’t know that this girl isn’t someone that is fulfilling these emotions in the real world.

Your mind believes that you are currently in a committed relationship with this crush.

To this effect, when you see your crush giving all of her attention to others except you, your mind interprets that as cheating.

It’s as though a girlfriend has betrayed her boyfriend, and yet, she isn’t your real life girlfriend.

She is someone that preoccupies your imagination.

An imagination that is rampant with images of you and this crush walking hand in hand, kissing, out on dates, etc.

Truly, your imagination is your worst enemy, as the more you think about your crush, the more emotionally attached you become to her.

When your thoughts are this intense about a crush, your mind is incapable of telling the difference between what is real and what isn’t.

The emotions you feel for this crush are profoundly strong.

You go to bed each night with thoughts of her, and wake up each day with the same thoughts.

As you go about your day, you are thinking about her.

Whether you are at work, with friends, or driving, she is in your thoughts.

It is this intensity of thought that tricks your psyche into believing that your crush is someone that is a real girlfriend in your life.

There are a few remedies to get out of the anguish you are enduring concerning this crush.

The first is the most obvious.

Tell her how you feel about her.

This puts everything out in the open, giving her the latitude to decide on whether she feels likewise.

This puts an end to all of the questions that have filled your mind about whether she likes you back.

If you don’t want to do this, the next alternative is to rid yourself of your crush’s overwhelming emotional influence over you.

This means that you have to push these invasive thoughts of her out of your mind.

By getting preoccupied in a variety of activities that use up your mental and physical energy, you push these thoughts out over time.

What activities are you interested in?

Are you interested in hiking, biking, working out, recreational sports, rock climbing, fishing, camping, racing, white water rafting, skiing, painting, sculpturing, etc.

Whatever it is, apply yourself in a number of activities that require concentration and exertion.

As you do this over time, your mind becomes more preoccupied with the activities you are doing, and not so much with your crush.

While doing all of this, it is beneficial to steer clear of venues that remind you of her, or she has a tendency to frequent.

This avoids any surprises, so that you stay on your mission to keep thoughts of her out of your mind.

As long as you are faithful in doing all of this, you won’t care so much that your crush has shown attention to everyone except you in the past.

You no longer care.
