Hi, I've been best friends with her since I was 5 years old. I started to have more deeper feelings for her about 3 years ago, but i know that she doesn't feel the same way about me since she referes to me as her brother and has had a few boyfriends. I tried to push these feelings aside, but it never workes. I even stopped talking, well tried..we still said hi from time to time, for 6 months since almost every site i went on for help said to distance myself from her. I thought that it worked, but i saw her at a picnic and I just melted, i couldn't even say anything and when I tried I started stuttering. I couldn't even think straight. This usually happenes when ever i was near her.
I've read the stickyed post and they really didn't work that well. I somehow always ended up thinking about her, even though i tried not to. Is this normal or am i doing something wrong? Does anyone have any advice on this?
