How to get over your feelings for your best friend who was only just a friend?

I am in love with my best friend and i have no idea on how to get over it. i have been best friends with this guy for 6 years now and always questioned myself when i was younger whether my felings for him were just as a friend or more and each time i denied it. This was up til 2 years ago where i realised that i had indeed fallen for him. I planned to tell him how i felt but then it was that very month he asked someone else out. I was slightly crushed but happy he was happy. however two years later he is still with his girlfriend and my feelings for him have been playing up such that i can not control it- thinking of him all the time. We go out and spend time together as friends do%26amp; it feels great and we feel close etc. However recently it has become difficult as i am hurting badly for the first time in 2 years. I know people will say I need to find someone else but the point is i need to move past him to be with someone else. how can i get over some1 that was never mine?How to get over your feelings for your best friend who was only just a friend?
first off, you should of told him how you felt a long time ago before he got together with his girlfriend. really the only way to get over him is to to see someone else in time its possible that you will get over your friend. or you can tell your friend that you don't want to be friends anymore, if you don't see him you'll get over him.








or depending on the relationship between your friend and his girlfriend, you can just tell him how you feel. he might feel the same way you do. look for hints.How to get over your feelings for your best friend who was only just a friend?
You mentioned that he has a girlfriend. She is not his wife.





Since you are such great friends, it is possible that he has feelings for you - and, since he has a girlfriend - he's not going to act on it.





What would you want him to do if the situation was reversed? Would you want him to tell you? Do you think you would be secretly relieved to know?





Which will you regret more: 1.) not telling him and he marries someone, or 2.) telling him and risking rejection.





It's quite possible that the two of you have a future together beyond friendship. What do you think?
It is never easy to get over something like this. Especially since you still see him. I think now you do realize there was nothing more than friendship on his side since in all the time before he had the girlfriend he did not ask you out. I think you need to see him less. The more you do this the better it will be for you. Find something to do that will fill the time when you might see him. Remember he has no clue how you feel, nor should he ever....Good luck
tell him how you feel and if he feels the same way maybe he will break it off with the girl he's with (hey, it's better than cheating) and go out with you. if he really cares for the person he's with and doesn't feel the same for you, tell him it hurts you to be around him. you may have to break off your friendship, but at least you'll each know how the other feels and it may be easier for you to move on.
You impressed me that you said, you were happy he was happy. Since this is apparently still the case, it wouldn't be right to advise you to go ahead...However, if in the future, you find he is not, I hope you tell him. Don't be surprised if he already knows. Sometimes though, once you've been placed in the 'friend' category too long, the guy just isn't sure whether or not to pursue you in a different way.





Maybe you've been alone too long, and maybe it's time to find a love of your own?
