My method of getting over someone is to completely cut them out of my life...

Assuming they don't like me more than a friend and won't stop talking to me, what do I do?

Aka they initiate conversations, phone calls and such...


I figure I would have to ignore completely or tell them that they let me down and I don't want them in my life any more...


However I do not want to be an *******.

Sometimes you need to be an *******. Delete and block. They persist, be honest and tell them the truth.

I had a woman who I wasn't interested in call/text/visit me at work for over a year. I tried everything, not to mention that I had told her that I wasn't interested in a ltr from day one. I tried every method I could think of....in the long run, I had to resort to being a total *******, for her to see the light. I have never been so mean to a person, and it actually caused me to reflect on how I approached women. To this day, I still am amazed what she put up with during that year.

To clarify I was chasing her and realized she didn't like me.. (FML) but for whatever reason she keeps talking to me and I can't do that if she is not interested...

Tell her to stop calling; it really is that simple, yet, so difficult for people who craves attention.

"I'm trying to knock the bottom out of it and you're trying to be 'just friends'. Stop calling me."

Easy peasy kinda sleazy.

Being honest is usually the best approach, ( keep it short + sweet). Sometimes though, people don't want you to move on, even if they don't want or can't have a relationship with you.. Often people really just enjoy the attention and being liked. So if you've said your piece, yet they're still hanging on or winding you up, then cutting all contact is the best thing to do. But if they have no idea you feel that way, at least let them know first..

Next time she calls or texts I will ask her to talk and I can share my feelings..

I'm only human and I don't play games...

Just avoid them as much as possible. I'm like that with a coworker, I like him, have liked him for like two years, and I try staying away from him, not looking at him, talking to him, etc. but it's difficult when I'm forced to work with him.

Ugh. I'm going through a milder form of this torture. I accidentally developed a crush on a good friend of mine. I really NEED to not have any contact with him. But I don't know how to NOT respond to texts and phone calls. I'm sure he's pretty clueless, and it would be awkward as hell to have a "talk" about it. But I'm making myself crazy. And miserable. All wrapped up with a pretty bow.
