    hearts arent trivial, and no, you cant force yourself, but over time you will. Your best bet is to not think of it and do other things.

    so then go for it, all out, flat out. i personally like a woman who goes for what she wants. bust down that door of his and go jerry springer on the other girl, telling her to keep away from your man. :p

    theres not much more to relationships than being best friends that happen to have sex, except commitment. if you're already great friends and already have sex then it wouldnt be asking much more of him to give you that last bit and make it official.

    the more you think about it, the harder it is for you to fall out of love

    Rachel, true Love is when you love everyone equally in a sense that desires nothing in return.
    When we love someone and cant let go, we are depending on that person for our own happiness, which honestly, is not love for them, it is love for ourself.
    Easier said than done, I know. I am STILL guilty of the same self deception and pity.
    If I could learn to love the earth as children of God and stop desiring the love of Jacks mom, I would be a much simpler and happier person.
    But Im still learning, just as we all are still learning.
    Letting go means to let go of yourself, your false ego, and embrace life for what it is.
    Desire to be another way than we are now is rooted in evny and lust.
    Acknowledge who you are, what you are, and live as your are.
    Experience your feelings, but dont allow them to overwhelm you, dont even name your emotions, just let them flow through you, like sitting silently in a forest and absorbing all the sounds you mind picks up on. Absorb and allow them to flow through you, without fear or desire, but with love, not divine love or personal love, simple love of life, because we are all special and unique, and we all have the equal right to live and love :)
    Hope that makes sense.
    Peace and love Rachel :D
    your friend, John ~

    make myself? no. but i can hurry it along its path a little wee bit by avoiding all contact with them... if im not around them, its a little harder to remember why i love them so much sometimes

    i agree and i think that once you love someone you always have love for them but of course it can change. i still love my ex but not in the same way i love my current beau.

    Just ignore them or smother them.

    One of two will work.

    yeah, just avoid them and try to meet someone else; it's a slow process but it does work
