5 signs you should give up on your crush

Sometimes it can feel harder to break up with your crush than it does your partner. The questions “Would it have worked out after all?” Or “What if?” Overshadow the final decision. They go unanswered forever. But there are certain circumstances in which you should absolutely stop your crush.

When to say goodbye to your crush

1. He doesn’t notice you

While you can’t even take your eyes off your crush, and they haunt your head every free minute, they barely pay any attention to you. Does he even know who you are and value your character? If not, get rid of him as soon as possible.

2. Just a flirt

 They flirt and flirt but that’s about it. All innuendos fizzle out and the spiral of flirtation doesn’t stop turning. No matter how clearly you give your crush the green light, they will not take the initiative, and even if you suggest a meeting they simply will not respond.

3. He’s dating someone else

You don’t really need to say anything about this: If your crush also meets with others, you should say goodbye as soon as possible. You don’t deserve this and you can save yourself this drama. Find someone who is “available” and who appreciates your interest.

4. Relation to reality is lost

Experience has shown that a crush takes place more in the imagination than in real life. It’s a long (or maybe a short) way before the crush becomes a reality as a partner. If you have the feeling during that time that you are losing touch with your real life, that you are losing your social contacts, and that you are only lost in rapturous daydreams in your free time, you should pull the emergency brake.

5. You become obsessed

Can’t think of anyone else and talk about anyone else? Do you take extra detours and spend a noticeable amount of time in places where experience has shown that your crush often hits? If you run the risk of breaking the line into stalking, run away. Other mothers have beautiful sons too.
