...just wish it would stop occupying my mind.
Then spend time with other girls and give more attention to your hobbies , career and friends. You making a big deal out of it which may be because you have too much available space in your head. (Unless she is the first girl you got close to )The word "dilemma" comes from Greek where "di" means two and "lemma" means premise. Refers usually to difficult choice between two undesirable options.
Often people seem to use this word mistakenly where "quandary" would fit better.0 -
I'm just going to have to move on like she's done. I just can't stop thinking about the situation and that's what's annoying. In my logical moments what's happened has happened for the best as we're so different, nothing long term could have come out of it and it's better it happened sooner rather than later when things could have gotten more messy...just wish it would stop occupying my mind.
It's occupying your mind for two reasons. One; you began to get emotionally involved. Two; the age-old conundrum of possibly being rejected and of not being able to have the thing you want which is quite attractive in itself.
Think to the future and not of the past. If she messes you about now imagine the hell of having a full-time relationship with her indecisive nature.0
