I’ve casually mentioned to different therapists how I avoid dating because I don’t like how quickly and how long I get obsessive thoughts. But I’ve never needed to actively work through it, since I largely don’t date. Lately, I’ve been having the thoughts again after finding out someone I haven’t seen in over a decade moved to the major city I live in. It’s pretty embarrassing to be in your 30s with obsessive thoughts of someone you won’t see again. So if anyone has suggestions on how to deal or how to bring this up without wanting to die of embarrassment, please share!
