I’m in love with a girl who is in love with my best friend

Hi,

It can be difficult to find out that the person you’re in love with is in love with someone else. If this person is also a good friend then it’s very understandable that it affects your thoughts and feelings. Almost everyone in this situation would experience that it occupies a lot of our thoughts and it is hard to think about anything else.

You are totally normal, and you are not alone in going through this.

There are a couple of things that can help you to get it out of your mind:

It will help you if you limit the time that you spend on things that remind you of the person you are in love with. For example, it would be smart not to check their profile a lot on social media. It might also be a good idea not to spend much time with the person, at least until your feelings have calmed down. It can help to spend more time with family and other friends. Some people experience that their minds get full of unwanted thoughts when they spend a lot of time on their own.

You can also find out if you want to talk to someone about your situation. This might not directly change your situation, but it can help to put words to your thoughts. A lot of people find that their feelings change or at least become easier to handle when they share them with others.

Remind yourself that things will get better as time goes on! Emotions can be overwhelming when they come, but every day will make them easier to handle. There are unfortunately a lot of people who experience that the person they like does not have the same feelings for them, or even that they are interested in a friend.
