Choose NOT to waste your energies on what you can’t do, and put them into what you can do. You can choose to make a decision to stop wasting your energies and efforts with all the negativities in your life and try to either look for the positives or create positives in your life. Your life and happiness truly are not conditional on what others do and what others choose. They really depend on the choices you make in your own life.

You cannot think about 2 things at once – so have a back up thought to fall back on every time you start to obsess and then you will get out of the habit of thinking about her. You also have to fill your life with meaningful activities to make you fulfilled and then you won’t need her so much.

September 12, 2011 2:42 am at 2:42 am #808276aries2756Participantworkinonit, I am trying to help you, but you don’t seem to want to hear me. There is a book I ask all my clients to read. It is called “Choice Theory” by Dr. William Glaser. You can get it on Amazon. You might try reading it. It will help you understand one’s ability to make the right choices for themselves and not allow the circumstances around them trick them into believing they have no choice. Or allowing others to control their choices for them. He gives examples through the book by following a few of his cases.
