Can't get you off my mind - or can I?
Love, or rather, the state of being in love, is sometimes too
close to obsession, especially if it is unrequited, but also
when, after a major break up, you find it hard to forget the
past.
Off your mind some keys on how to forget your ex-love more
quickly
Love, or rather, the state of being in love, is sometimes too
close to obsession, especially if it is unrequited, but also
when, after a major break up, you find it hard to forget the
past. This is no news; singers from all traditions have sung to
broken hearts and ex-partners for ages. Take Aerosmiths Tell me
what it takes to let you go, for instance, or Air Supplys Cant
live (if living is without you). Weve grown to the beat of love
songs, beautiful ones at that, with great music and better
lyrics, but they all share quite a masochistic idea of love. We
just need to stop to wonder: Is loving someone who does not love
us any longer or who upsets our lives worthwhile? If our love is
unrequited, isnt that enough reason to stop loving? Can I be
friends with someone who doesnt feel they are my friend? Being
loved and having a good time are two reasons for falling for
someone, but if it doesnt happen, why waste your time and
insist? Our teachers and our parents teach us to remember, but
nobody teaches us to forget. If you need to get somebody off
your mind, take these practical tips into account but at the
same time, go over and review your ideas on love.
Keys to forget
Imagine someone else living up to your expectations Avoid being
alone for a long time. Take up those activities youve always
wanted to try. Open up to the chance of meeting new people. Take
off your sight anything that reminds you of your ex-love. Dont
listen to the music you used to listen to when you were
together. Avoid dating in places where you used to meet your
ex-love. Dont hang out in places where he/she hangs out. Draw up
a list of his/her defects, it will help you forget him/her more
quickly. Avoid meeting friends in common for a while, unless
they are very close to you. Look for new projects concerning
your work or new studies. Redecorate. Change couches and mirrors
or whatever you feel has his/her energy. Take up a new hobby:
painting, handicrafts, writing. Learn something new: playing an
instrument, a language, yoga. Think that you have broken up with
someone, but not with your ability to love. Subscribe for a
dating or friends agency on the internet (I met my husband this
way).
Remember that the word CRISIS was synonymous with opportunity
for the ancient Greeks.
