How to get over someone you never dated?

[Cait_Lyn]

There's this guy I have had a crush on for over 2 or 3 years. We are friends and have both been interested in each other, as well as our mutual friends always expecting us to date, but nothing ever happened. He was abroad for over half a year (with little contact) but as soon as he's back I get butterflies all over again.
He is moving away, so making advances doesn't really make any sense, at least in regards to a relationship. It's probably best to just try and forget him/get over it but I don't know how.
Help!

Can you contact him over the social network? facebook whatsapp etc? If so, and you suspect he feels the same about you, get in touch with him. Be clever. Find the right words. If you knew each other in some level and you had a poisitive chemistry between you too there can be like a hundred reasons for you to keep being in touch and from there you can even meet in accident... and make it happen. One of the biggest issue is our mental fixation. Hope for the best, not less.

you go out and actually find someone to date. if you can not do that then you just going to keep being reminded of the guy forever.
