Why am I worried about a girl I don’t love?

[Anonymous]

Ah man I feel you. Even though you're not in love with this girl, it's still normal to care about someone you spend time with. And when they're not around all of a sudden, your mind can start worrying without you meaning to.

A few things that might help:

- Remember you were sick last week so your feelings were probably extra sensitive. Now that you're feeling better, your thoughts might level out.

- See if you can subtly find out from mutual friends how she's doing, without being too obvious you're checking up on her. That might ease your concern.

- Recognize this worry is more coming from missing the company and routine of seeing her, not actual deep feelings.

- Keep yourself busy with other stuff so you're not dwelling on it. Hang with the boys, play some sports, whatever you're into.

Chances are once you see her again and can confirm she's alright, the worry will fade away. Don't sweat it too much man, we all get like that sometimes even if we don't wanna admit it! You got this.

You can care about someone’s wellbeing and miss their presence without loving them or being attracted to them.
