Do you fall in love hard and fast whenever you meet someone that you are compatible with? The best thing that you can do is to learn how to not fall in love and this can help to save you from heartbreak that inevitably comes with being in love.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with having an open person, someone that is vulnerable and loves deep, but if you do not want to have your heart broken, you should learn to love yourself before you love anyone else.
It is possible, regardless of what people say, to be able to control your emotions. When you learn to do this, you can keep your heart safe and not allow it to be broken.
One reason that people fall in love is because they love romance or they are very sensitive, or even more, they might have been alone for a long period of time.
If you find that you are a hopeless romantic or a dreamer, your views on love might be different than other peoples and the truth is, this is okay. Even though you are a dreamer and you have a different approach to how you love and how you date, you might want to learn how to keep yourself strong so that you do not have to go through heartbreak again and again.
Once you have the pain of someone not returning love to you, you will see that this is something that you do not want to have to experience again. Having this kind of pain can change who you are and make you a different person than you want to be.
You have to learn to be more cautious in your love life so you can avoid having your heart broken.
Feelings
One thing that you have to accept is that you cannot always change things. If you want to stop yourself from falling in love, you have to notice what you are feeling all the time.
Ask yourself what your feelings mean and if you are seeing things from the wrong point of view. Spend time thinking about your feelings and how you feel about the person you are crushing on. Do they make you feel happy and do they make you smile? Maybe when you see them you are feeling pressured into looking good or acting differently or maybe you even are nervous when they text you.
If you have these feelings, chances are you are already falling in love, but you still can control the way things go. You have to have control over your brain because your heart will not listen when you begin to crush on someone.
Your heart will want what it wants and if you want to not fall in love, you have to change your behavior and put up barriers. For one, never ask your crush out. Never try to have them ask you and stop listening to songs or watching movies that remind you of them.
Redirect your thoughts and your energy by staying busy. Take a class and do whatever makes you a better person. Be productive and go after your dreams instead of your crush.
Know Your Feelings
Once you recognize your feelings, you have to know what they mean. Being infatuated with someone means that you are after them and you like them and maybe are even obsessed with them.
You have to ask yourself why you are acting like you are and if you are really liking someone or if you are just feeling lonely. If you answer yes to any of those, this is a good reason not to go out with someone because you are only infatuated with them and not in love with them.
You need to have your needs met and you need people to recognize what you want and need. If you insist on keeping contact with this person, is it because you are being all about you or are you really just needing to connect with your own self?
Whatever you do, always be honest and true. Do not pretend to be someone you are not and when you do this, it can cause you to not believe in yourself.
No one can expect you to be who they are, and you will always try to feel good enough so that you can be with the person you like. The great news is that you are already good enough and you do not have to be someone else to be with them. If they cannot see that move on.
Boundaries
Everything in our lives need boundaries, even when we are crushing on someone. If you decide to go out with someone, do not pretend that you do not see your partners flaws. Allow yourself to take it all in and out know what they are doing and how they are acting.
Set boundaries in your relationship and be true to yourself. Every relationship needs boundaries, and this is especially important if you are trying not to fall in love.
Never let how good your crush is looking to make you lose your boundaries. Never forget what you are wanting in your life and never forget that you do not want to fall in love.
Say not to things that you do not want to do. Say no to falling in love and have the discipline to do that. Stick with what you decide and do not fall into temptation.
Contact
Be self-disciplined in staying away from your crush. Get rid of them on social media and do not text them or call them, even if they call or text you.
When you see the person that you are not wanting to love, do not post to them and do not like their pictures.
Avoid them when you go out and spend time places that they will not be. Do not spend time with someone that you do not want to fall in love with and avoid going to the same places that they go to.
Do not agree to go out to dinner or lunch and come up with ways on how to avoid interacting with them. Focus on your job or your school and do not think of them or do things that make you think of them.
Think about what you like about this person and then what you do not like about this person and remember why you do not want to fall in love with them.
Self-Confidence
Never change who you are for other people. Have strong self-esteem and people will look at you differently. Try to be confident in who you are and make goals that you can reach.
If you want to take a new class or change how you look, take your free time, and do these things. You can do things for yourself that no one else will be able to do for you. Boost your confidence and do this by finding ways to take care of yourself.
When you find that you have something that you like to do, this will help to keep your mind off of love.
Control Your Emotions
Stop having the desire to be with someone you do not want to love. You do not need someone to love you and you do not need to be with someone that you like.
When you see that you like someone, chances are your whole world will change and you will want to spend more of your time with them than ever before. You will want something from them that they probably cannot give you, so why try anyways?
Get rid of the thoughts of this person and know that you do not need to be in love with someone or to be with someone to feel that you are accomplishing things in your life.
Do not feel that you need to find people that will approve of who you are, you are already great.
Talk to Someone
Call your friends and have them tell you that you are good enough. You can open up to your friends and when you talk to them about what is going on in your heart, your friends will give you the best advice.
Spending time with your family and friends can help you to pay attention to more important things than your crush.
Red Flags
When you choose to start liking someone, make sure that you know who they really are. Know if there are red flags with this person. No matter how nice someone acts, you have to figure out who they really are before you get serious with them.
If you are crushing on someone and they do not start a conversation or interact with you, chances are they are not into you.
If you are seeing that they are not nice to other people and they easily offend people around them, they probably are not a very good person.
Goals
Know what you want in life and set goals that you can reach. When you set small goals, you can learn to discipline yourself and reach things that you want in your life.
Setting goals is important for your self-esteem and it can help you to focus on important things in your life. Focusing on something important helps you to be motivated.
Failed Relationships
Sometimes being single is better than begin with someone, especially if that person is not for you. Think about your past relationships and see if it ended good or if it was a bad time in your life.
Before you think of a new relationship, learn what you really want and how much time and energy it would take you to make someone else happy.
If you decide to be with someone, you are giving up your freedom and you are taking a chance to be with someone that will might end the relationship and cause you pain down the road.
Falling in Love
If you end up falling in love with someone, there is not a lot you can do. Sometimes you have to accept that things happen, and you have to realize that when you have pain and emotions that it is just a normal part of life.
Things are not always in our control and if we meet someone that we love and they do not love you back, you are probably better off without them.
Never give up on who you are. Think about things in your life that you have learned from and know that you are not the only one that has had their heart broken.
When things do not go how you hoped they would, remember that you cannot control how other people treat you. Learn to be patient and when you are ready to move on, your heart will heal, and everything will change.
Everyone knows what they have to do when things like this happen and instead of choosing to suffer, learn to choose to find peace in yourself.
No matter what you want, love is something that is a mystery that we all fall into. If you fall in love with someone that does not love you back, remember love is about feelings. Do not blame yourself for what you feel or who you are.
You should not have to change who you are to be accepted by other people. Do not let society tell you who you should be. If you are emotional, embrace it and be who you are.
Accept who you are, and you will live a happier and fuller life. Eventually, you will find the person you are meant to be with, and you will find happiness.
