Need help getting over a crush
The above title states the issue. I (25f) have a certain behavioral issue that I am trying to get rid of: I fall for anyone who shows me concern especially friends of the opposite gender. Like you may say that is normal right? Noooo, in my case, opening the door for me is enough for me to start thinking about future wedding venues and choosing children names. Recently I've found myself developing feelings for someone who I've just newly become friends with and I don't want to ruin the friendship by having this crush on them and thinking quote 'unruly' thoughts about them. Realistically, I know it would be difficult to be with him due to major cultural, religious, and racial differences, but I can't stop the fixation anyhow because he keeps on being nice. This has been going on for some weeks, and I have tried staying away, less contacting even physically running away when I have seen him around, but aaaaargh, it's not working. I feel like at my age, I'm supposed to be using my full brain when it comes to this relationship stuff, but my heart tends to say otherwise. The last time I had a crush like this, it lasted 5 years( no handina kumbobvira ndaudza munhu wacho due to fear of rejection) n I can't get into any relationship due to these crushes. How do I stop this infatuation effectively and keep my head level minded and not probably waste months thinking about a person who realistically I may never be with?
