How to overcome the longing for romantic passion?

Anonymous

How do other people push away that drive for sexual attraction and that "in love" feeling?

It's driving me crazy. I still dream about people I was in love with years ago. I know that you aren't supposed to feel that way, but how do you make the cravings stop?

Are you looking for that kind of a relationship now? I mean, it is easy to see how you could think of old relationships if you're looking for that again -- even if you know that those relationships didn't work out for reason.

  No, I'm not dating much at all really. I don't know why I crave being in love so much, but it drives me crazy.
  
  My relationships where I wasn't all that in love didn't work out either, btw. I just don't think I'm cut out for it.

  And when you look back, it is easy to remember only the good things, and forget the bad times, which only serves to make you more nostalgic.

  What should I do to stop it? It makes me depressed.

  Well, if you realize that you're remember only the best things, it might help. You're remembering one of the best feelings in your life from when you were younger, and you're also remembering it through rose-colored glasses. Of course there's no way that your day-to-day life can compete with that.
  
  But it doesn't mean you won't be able to experience another romantic relationship again. When you start thinking of those things, try to distract yourself with something else -- writing or calling a friend, running some errands, exercise, or whatever else you might like to do.

  Thanks. I'm trying to MH you, but it won't let me. I appreciate it.

  I initially though you were trying to "manhandle" me.
  
  It's been a rough Monday...
