How are we helping with unreciprocated crushes?
15 year old has had a crush for a few years. Feelings have been shared (over a year ago) but the crush doesn’t feel the same way. Oh man emotions are high over this. I listen and try to be understanding while also explaining that’s it’s probably time to let it go but I’m told the feelings are too strong and letting go seems impossible right now. How do we help them through this? I’m afraid my teen is missing out on friendships and other fun teen things because of this.
