Dealing with A Crush (in every sense of the word)
Posted: Sun Jan 20, 2013 2:05 pm
I am in the fourth week of the Attack Anxiety program. I have done session 1-3 so many times before and for some reason I have never got passed to session four. Session four has been one of the most important lessons I've learned. In using the skills from session 1-4 I was able to have a better control on times when I would lost control and have an anxious episode.
One of the things that I had always lost control of was when it came to my crush. I had feelings for him and he would say that he's not interested in me, yet he would do things that were contrary to the fact. It has been a year of feeling hurt, taken advantage of and used. I forgave him several times even when he didn't deserve it. I do not understand why he does what he does but this program has taught me how to deal with my anger. Using session two, I was able to have a better control of my anger. Using session four in conjunction with session two, I was able to not have much expectations about him.
After ten days of my recovery and not talking to him. He contacts me and I respond. Yesterday he hurts me again after i had treated him to the movies and invited him to hangout at my house. Remember, although I had a strong crush on him I still consider him a friend but friends don't ditch other friends like he does.
How do I deal with this? How do I deal with this crush that may be coming up again? How do I move on?
Thanks,
