Immediately when I find out they don't want me

DanielChristensen46-50, M Best Comment
That would be situational, but if there is no obvious or declared reciprocation, if they seem disinterested, preoccupied with someone else or there is no real chemistry, all good reasons to stop thinking of them in that fashion
Zer0Point36-40, F
@DanielChristensen Do you think there is any way to stop thinking of them in that manner without breaking ties with them completely?
Not really@Zer0Point
DanielChristensen46-50, M
@Zer0Point That would be difficult. Heart wants what it wants.The chase is intoxicating. We often fancy someone who doesn't feel the same. It would probably be the best course to sever association, but some like to hang onto the hope they will somehow come around.

Perhaps your average person would find this exceedingly difficult to achieve whilst retaining associations, but I believe a mature, realistic person can grasp and accept the reality and still value a friendship

I usually don't. I'm too shy and have self-esteem problems.
Zer0Point36-40, F
@Xuan12 If it makes you feel any better, I think you're a kickass person. Plus I'm the same way, so like when I crush it's pretty hard, and it's typically one-sided, lol.
Xuan1231-35, M
@Zer0Point I appreciate it. You're quite cool yourself.

When it's obviously one-sided.

Following this thread because i still dont know how.

Try to utterly hate them..view them entirely as undesirable, unlikeable and unlovable..like there's no good in them...focus on that until you can fuke it out lol
SW-User
As soon as it feels like the odds of it developing are slim. I develop crushes pretty easily, and let go.

This post reminded me instantly of 1978 the release of Grease and a girl named Julie, so i guess you never do?

I try to nip it in the bud as soon as I feel the feels.
When they act like an asshole.

Two options, either you have a one night thing with them and realise it wasn't all it was cracked up to be, or you deliberately cut off all contact with them because you know that moment is going to happen otherwise.
Zer0Point36-40, F
@CheshireCatalyst This is painfully true.

When I can no longer feel my legs...

@Zer0Point Then I've just come across as an insensitive ass... But it wouldn't be the first time :p

@Quizzical Lol, you pull off the insensitive ass quite well. 馃榿

restraining order
caccoon36-40
I don't really get crushes, but when it's happened in the past I entertain the thought for a few seconds and then move on because it's simply not worth it for me to invest emotionally in something in which the affection may, and probably won't, ever be returned.
