    I guess the though thing about this is that for me it is not even about this person, cause I barely know him. It's about the idea of being with SOMEONE who makes me feel the way I felt with that guy the few times we met. But the obsession started before I even met this specific guy who now is my extra trigger because before I just obsessed about yearning for romantic companionship. This video is simply not helping because I already have my passions. I already socialize a lot and share my hobbies. I can't add any more hobbies than I already have and I love them. But once you obsess over something it's hard to stop because you can be doing something else and while it used to be fun at one point, you still can't fully focus anymore on that.

    Mental obsession is a habit and habits can be broken easily .if someone know how habits can be broken, as simple as shifting your sleep, meal ,or hobbies timings .,but this one is mainly emotional thing normally, which has to take some time (reaction time to the new case).

    Well, it's 1:43 am and I still can't sleep because I keep thinking about that one person. You see, it's easier during the day, I can keep myself busy but what about these long lonely sleepless nights? Moreover, I really don't want to use someone else to get over someone else. I mean yeah I try to make new friends but I feel like it's very forceful from my side while the other person is thinking that it's mutual. I don't want to deceive this new person (probably the person I'm thinking about did the same to me as well)

Im now incredibly happy and I’m loving my life now :) it may seem impossible, it’s gonna hurt for a while, especially if you loved the girl like I loved mine.

    It’s a relief to know I’m not the only one in this type of situation. I can’t stop thinking about my ex, and it’s so frustrating at times because he’s out there living he’s life, no trace of me, while even though I’m trying to live my life, he’s still present in my mind. We’ve been on and off back then, but it’s been more than two years already. We bumped into each other a couple of times, but haven’t talked in months 😩

    Sometimes we create a version of a person that really doesn’t exist. It’s a fantasy of who we want them to be, it’s not the real person. We need to look at the real actions, if someone is not giving you security or solid answers that they want to be with you then the answer is NO. Absence is the best, as stated in the video once your energy is gone from them that’s when they notice. We need to stop giving our energy to the wrong people.

    What if you’re obsessed with them for how they make you feel? (not directly, like, them doing things to/for you) For how thinking about them, being reminded of them, things about them makes you feel.. When you love things about them, and not just because of who you want them to be, but who you see them as/the way you see them? I’m sorry if this is confusing, I’m just talking about me being a K-Pop fan, obsessed with an idol and I’ve been trying to “not have him in my life” anymore.. But, and it’s hard to explain, a lot of things just remind me of him, too.. And sometimes, I just don’t know what to do when I see things that remind me of him or triggers me to think about him..

If I can do it anyone can! And most importantly TIME HEALS YOUR HEART, it may not feel like it now but you will stop thinking of this person and move on to better things :)

    I guess you just need to accept that this significant person may not ever come out of your mind, embrace it instead but make sure he is the last priority, keep yourself busy and like in mental free time of you get what I mean, they can occupy that space. Until you willingly want to forget them, I'm still in the process I also still can't forget them so I just accept my thinking just to be , but other things are way more important.

    This is why so many people replace an "old"/lost/unrequited love with another instead of working on a better, stronger self. It's a lifelong lesson and not everybody can do it. You're strong enough to do this, focus on yourself, establish healthy boundaries, break habits that don't serve you. In my opinion, you don't need to set a somewhat distant goal in stone. Focus on the process instead.

    @@alezt14 this is really true. and it actually caused me to lose that person the fact that i was so obsessed by having him the way i wanted. I ended up pushing him away. Now i am obsessed even more because he wanna be friends for now. I think i inject also my negative vibes into him and he also lost concentration on things that probably are more important in his life e.g his work and himself. So now I am paying the price of him pulling away and downgrading me for now. He told me that we should continue to talk as a friend and not labeling our relationship right now until everything is back to normal again and that we could meet again. But i guess because of that I am even more obsessed and need his validation to reassure that he will stick with me and that we will work things out. But this is not healthy and I have been watching this vdo more than 3 times in order to understand that I have to let this obsession go and let things work out on its own. i am normally very independent but at this time I guess i really need attention and I overwhelm him with this

    I feel like my obsession comes from fear and not being able to find anyone else, cus an obsession is always formed when a new attractive person enters into my life (few and far between) that likes me a lot and gives me attentention. I get excited and think I've found "the one", and then my anxiety of potentially losing the person if I do the "wrong thing" persists and changes me in a negative way. Then, they pull away and I plot even harder trying to find a way to pull them back in. I feel like if I can let go of this insecurity in myself, then I can finally be free. Redirecting my obsession seems to be like distracting myself from the real underlying issue that forces me to form that obsession in the first place, when it shouldn't even be there.

Not in the slightest and that she actually grossed with the thought of me really into her. Then I try to get into my old hobby, which is drawing that makes me happy. Also planning on starting to make soaps, possibly for business. Things have never went so well for me in life. Like a great weight lifted. The key, I think is to find that spark in your life again. Kinda like the one you see in Disney's Soul. The idea that makes you alive, makes you feel happy even from the simplest thing. If we can just take a moment, and live every second for what makes us love ourselves, and not with some unhealthy obssession over someone who don't care about you.

    I have a very imaginative mind since childhood, i used to fantasize something that i know its impossible to achieve or have. When i become adult, this fantasizing continued and was reinforced when i read the book of Paolo Coelho, "The Alchemy" supporting that if we dream of sonething really seriously, the universe will conspire to give us what we want. Now i am an adult life is teaching me that there is an issue in my childhood, its rejection and abandonment, that was unresolved. I have discovered that my fantasizing is a way of escape to whats lacking inside of me. My parents failed to assure me of my self worth and self esteem is low. Thanks to your videos, it awakened me of whats lacking within me. Slowly i will reset myself to heal my childhood issue with the help from God.

Just try to keep your focus in current moment, if you realized that you are thinking about " that" person then just try to observe the things and shapes front of you, observe their outline then slowly you will get back to your senses and this trick also worked for me

    He met someone new. I guess my blockage was that: I was there for him when he was at his lowest point in life, encouraged him, pushed him to exercise, showed him to stay positive, etc. I did all that because I really liked him and his sweet words convinced me that we would have an amazing lif together. Now that his life is back on track and his confidence’s back, he abandoned me for someone else. I think my blockage is that he didn’t appreciate what I did for him. He took what he needed and left. I wonder why are some people like this... I learned my lesson.

    Wow!!! I'm so sorry! I had that but the other way around...he was going through a tough time and I tried to help him. But he lives with his ex (he always said to me that they broke up because he considered her a friend but had no where else to live so they kept living together). Anyways, because the tough time he was going through I tried to be understanding but after a year and now that he is fine again I decided to talk things with him. His answer was that his life was with the other person and that he rather had me as a friend (of course with benefits)...so I decided to stop that relationship we had because it was going no where and I felt used and played around. He also told me that the other woman was still in love with him but he didn't want anything with her. I never met her but I would love to, just to let her know that I never wanted to hurt her in case the situation did. Because she knew of my existence as he told her once...

I realized he was just leading me on and feeding his ego. He knew I liked him and never said at the beginning that he doesn't want a relationship with me of course he told me why but those reasons are strange anyway I'm avoiding him as much as I can but I still love him he does have some good qualities and we do get on pretty well despite everything. Well time to turn my attention to myself now. He'll notice for sure that I'm not around as much but it's his loss. He should've been honest with me before he broke my heart. 😔Thanks Susan good advice.😔

    I realised whenever I have a crush/obsession on someone it usually takes the form of daydreaming about a future version of me that is skinnier, prettier, got her shit together, is living life the way I want to etc. I think I do this because I don’t feel like a relationship would be the best for me right now and I definitely have some insecurities about nobody wanting me as a partner. I can’t picture my current self with a partner, it has to be some ideal version of me that I will never be. This version of me will be “finally good enough” to enter into a relationship. I’m definitely going to take your advice on breaking the habit, but I don’t know how to refocus my goals when it seems pretty clear that this fantasy land is serving a dual purpose of relationship fantasy and “ideal future me” fantasy. How do I feel more satisfied with my present self? How do I stop this feeling of not being good enough?

    True story...I hadn’t heard from the guy i like and is often on my mind 😂 in two days. Was out running errands when this tall, handsome blonde comes into my line of vision. He very politely approached me and proceeded to apologize for bothering me but needed to tell me he thought I was beautiful and if I would be interested in going to dinner with him. I gave him my number and two hours later he left me a message wondering if I could go out the following night. I told him I was busy so we decided on next week. For the first time in a few weeks the original guy was nowhere on my mind 😂 completely gone. Literally 22 minutes after the new guy called me, out of nowhere the guy I like texts me, i was so so relaxed and laissez faire that I think he sensed it by some of his replies. I swear I truly believe this shift in energy thing. It had happened previously when I went on a date with someone new, had a lovely time and the very next day guy #1 is texting me. Put your energy elsewhere girls, whether it’s volunteering, a new hobby or saying yes to going on a date with a new guy, you never know who’s coming around the corner.

Still regularly talk to the tall blonde who is a pro rugby player but he lives abroad and although he asked me to be exclusive since our very first date I said no to that as well as long distance relationships are not for me. So I will see him whenever I travel to his country or he comes back, in the meantime we are getting to know each other without any pressure and I like it like that as I tend to run if things progress too quickly.

If it already starts out like this, while not even starting anything really, imagine if you ever catch that person how he/she is going to behave in a relationship. You are better off without him/her (for now) and we all deserve someone who reciprocates exactly the same interest we are showing. Be strong an stop hurting yourself by inviting those people back into your life. Don't hate them but feel pity with them for what they must have been through themselves to become like this. They need to sort out their own issues and we, why we are still hanging on to someone who is not good for us. Stop looking at the past and what could have been. Set them free and live in the present. You can't change them but you can take the right actions in your own live and do the work needed so you will attract someone who is worth your time and affection. Once you are there, the universe will work it all out - be it with a new partner or eventually the guy/gal you never quite got. Just believe in it. Be strong!

I've finally found my passion once again and just thinking about where I want to be in the next 10 years, really excites me. I'm now determined to reach my goals and become this independent, sociable, and kind hearted person like I once was before I've met my ex and I'm happy. 🌸🌸🌸

    Ma'am I just want to say that I'm extremely grateful for this video. I was honestly dying from overthinking and pain I got from long distance separation. I feel so much better and I will do my best to focus on other things

    This was very well articulated and very helpful. However, I think the final bit of advice risks compromising the whole attempt. It may be true that depriving that person of your presence will increase the chance they will miss you, but I think its a messy game to play. When you are succeeding in not thinking about them/not messaging them, you will have this underlying thought that you are only ignoring them SO THAT they will come to you. It almost increases the obsession because you are anticipating their return. Then, if they don't return, it just hurts and feels helpless. I guess its a double edged sword. But focussing on other goals and spending time DOING stuff that isn't thinking about that person is really good advice to interrupt the habit.

    I agree. I was buying into this but she completely lost me with that last little nugget - a nugget of complete BS IMO. A crazy narcissist discarded me and I am certain is giving me no thought at all. The new rewards supply person is in place and as long as that is the case I remain completely eliminated from the picture. That said, the breaking the habit advice was excellent and she was correct about my inability to sleep. Need more work in those areas.

    I think as soon as u give up all hope and let them go they can sense it and panic. Usually too late by then cos your feelings have gone already.

    1) find something in your life that is more exciting than this person. A passion, a hobby, and achievement. A big goal, helping others. The only way to find your own happiness and your own groundness on things that are more tantalizing than your obsessions. We are creatures of habit.
