I have to stop liking this guy.
I've been in love with one of my friends for like the past year
he's not fake like some of my other (ex)friends but this is runing it
between us.

I have to stop liking him but I can't seem to do anything to change it.

Do you know whether he feels the same way or not? If he defnitely does not, then all I can say, is to focus on all the illogical/stupid/irritating aspects of his personality and tell yourself how glad you are that he is only a friend, not a potential mate.

Sometimes that works if you haven't already fallen too hard.

You sound too uptight. Try and relax a bit more. Your mind will eventually sort out what it wants. Fighting yourself won't really get you anything except internal turmoil and stomach ulcers.

So lighten up a bit- find a good book to read, or something similar that you can get lost in for the next few weeks.

You like this guy and you're in love with him? You're reminding me of Ryan.

What to do? I can't think of anything.

Just face it. You trapped yourself in a relationship. I can't get Ryan to stop liking me, and you can't get yourself to not like this guy. :( That is sad.

Yes I am too up tight about it
and I know why.

That's what stressing me out.
I don't want to be like that.
One time this bi girl kept following me around claiming she was in love with me and stuff, then she started stalking me.
This went on for ages until I moved away.

I don't want to be like her.
I really really don't want to be like her.

edited to add: He still likes me as a friend so maybe i'm not quite as bad as her. But I still feel like a freak and I still feel like i'm making his life harder than it needs to be.

I know how you feel. I have had millions of experiences like you, except they don't like me as a friend. Just keep flirting with him, be nice, give him space sometimes and you will do fine. ttyl

He knows how I feel. He doesn't care and takes it as if it's a license to treat me like s**t.

I wouldn't want to be with him now even if he did like because of the way he's treated me.

hmm... i can def. relate to your problem. why do you like him, anyway? he seems to have treated you badly and he's taking advantage of the fact that you like him. i'd just find another guy. maybe even a celebrity. craig nicholls (lead singer of the vines) helped me through a lot last year *blush*

My advice is this guy is a jerk if he's treating you like that and not worth your time. Cut your contact with him and try and meet some new people.
:)

In my opinion, the best way to get over someone is get onto someone new.
