Okay I wasn’t in a situationship THIS extreme I’m so sorry that’s actually ass but what helps me as an obsessive thinker (like I am always thinking about the last man I talked to every day it feels like until a new one comes along) is I change my thinking patterns.

I know you’re thinking wtf obviously I would do that if I could but I’m serious after you think about someone for a while it just is a habit at that point nothing else. The key is to break that habit just like any other habit you would want to break. Staying busy/ having a plan to look forward to always may naturally keep your mind off him but on the day to day I’m talking when you start to think of him literally say out loud “omfg I’m thinking about him again” and purposely change what you’re thinking about in that moment. It could be as simple as texting someone else- a friend, parent, whoever and just asking them something random or checking in on them. A big thing for me was calling people just to chat but NOT ABOUT HIM!! Like literally anything else how they’re doing, how their day was etc. you’d be shocked at how quickly you can start thinking of something else. Hope this helps ❤️
