A Problem

[Proserpina]

There's this person whom i think of often,a little too often.I don't cry myself to sleep thinking about him or any of that nonsense(in my terms nonsense),but keep thinking that one day,in a few years we will meet up again.I think because I used to be obsessed over him a year or so ago,I can't stop thinking about him.And i tell you ladies he has the works :good looks,good body,personality,intelligent,lead singer of a band etc. , etc......So I don't know where to turn to,so please help or comment on this.

In her book "Everday Magick" Dorothy Morrison has a ritual called "Take Back Your Life" and I used it after I was divorced to help me move on from my ties to my ex forward to a life of my own.
If you'd like it I can e-mail it to you. But mostly it consists of burning a picture of the one you wish to be free of and visualizing your life how you wish it to be now.
Good luck!

Prosperina;

I hope this doesn't sound like "tough love," because that is not my intent. I just want to be completely honest with you.:hugz:

Focus on YOURSELF. It doesn't matter if you are 16 or 80, we are never too old to learn how to be ourselves, and be happy in our skin. The burning picture is a great aid, and I am also fond of writing letters - writing everything you want to say to this person, your deepest emotions, and setting it afire (in a safe spot ;) )

The reason I say something so personal to you is because for the past two months I have been witness to a friend literally going down a spiral of dementia over a man. It started out small, a little more than a crush but still small. But now it is such a problem for her that she is losing herself, some of her friends, and also she is negating the possibility of finding happiness somewhere else. And though we have never met, my heart knows that you are a strong, intelligent, beautiful person with a lot of love to give. I would hate to hear that something as tragic as what is happening to my friend has happened to you.

Lots of Blessings and Love,
Kathleen

I had a friend do a banishing spell for me to help me put my last relationship to rest. I could not stop thinking of him no matter how hard I tried. It was making me sad and crazy and unable to move on. So prehaps something like that can be done for you. Or you could do it your self. Something to that affect can be done by you if necessary. The "Taking back your life" ritual is also excellent.

I know this may sound trite, but one of the best things I have found for situations like this is just busy yourself with other things.
I've been in this situation too many times for my liking, and keeping myself too busy to really have the time to sit and think really helped me. I also have burned photos and wrote letters and then burned them, and for me that ended up being a good way to help myself admit that I could get over this person and move on with my life. I especially recommend writing a letter, because then you can get all of your feelings that have been pent up inside released.
I hope that things start looking up for you soon. :)

I just remebered a spell i worked on myself after i broke up with my first love. I got a picture of him, a length of ivy and some black ribbon.

I wrapped the picture in Ivy and while wrapping the ribbon round i saidthat i would leave the feelings i had in the past and move on with my life and then tied the ribbon in a knot. I performed it near the full moon too, although when i performed it wasn't really significent to me. It took a couple of months but then it worked.I reasoned that i needed some grieving time but it wasn't allowed to take me over any more.

[FeatherGoblinglimmer]

I didn't dedicate the ritual to anyone but it did feel potent to me. The ivy to me is a plant that binds, and sticks.Black ribbon moving on and protection and the picture was an old one that i had kept hold of and it meant a lot to me so it had a lot of power charged behind it to me.
