Is it normal that i can't forget the man i like?

I met this man who is way older than me. He's 20 years older than me. He's handsome and cool. He's kind and a real gentleman. I caught him looking at me more than once and he would tease me occasionally too. When he stares at me, he would do it for quite some times. Strangely, I'm kinda drawn to him too. There's just something really special and unique in him that attract me. Sometimes I would stare at him too.
Recently, I found out that he's actually in a relationship. It really broke my heart but I can't forget this man. I had a crush for him for almost two years now. What can I do to forget him? And is it normal if a woman can't forget the man she likes/loves? Thank you.

    Gee whiz! He's twenty years older than you? And he's in a relationship?

    Those don't sound like good odds honey, sorry. Sounds like you've got yourself quite the infatuation.

    You probably won't forget him, but you can move on, which is basically the only choice you've got.

    If I were trying to forget someone, I would stop going to the places that remind me of him. I would make a great effort to find a new romance to fixate on. And, I would believe that I was better than that because I was never his first choice. Plus, I would never go for a guy who is twenty years my senior. The thought of it makes my skin crawl.

    I agree with the first responder here. Normal to be crushing on him? Absolutely. But busy yourself with new places and interests. He is unavailable and you deserve someone who keeps their relationships honest.
    Curious about older men? Plenty other fish in the sea...no need to worry about what is on someone else's hook.

    I know what many say, but more often than not a older guy fall for a young sweetheart! Good luck with your choices!
