Is it normal for a guy to think about a girl everyday for this long
There is a girl who I used to go to school with, and I haven't seen in nearly three years. It started when she liked me, and later on I started to like her but she didn't like me anymore, just stupid high school stuff. Anyway, I haven't seen her since nearly three years ago yet I still think about her for at least a few hours each day. I have deeply seated romantic feelings for her and find myself fantasizing about her for much of my time. I feel my emotions are stronger than they were when I was actually in the physical presence of her. I try to think of other girls but my thoughts always go back to her and I cannot get her out of my head. I am pretty social inept, having no friends or confidants, and feeling lonely. Is it normal that these feelings have lasted, and continue to last, this long?
