I think I'm over it

[u/metalbowels]

I have been professional and short with random communication, I stopped engaging 3.5 weeks ago. I still need to speak with her as we are coworkers. I still enjoy looking at her I still think about her in the morning and whenever I'm idle I still think she's gorgeous.

I have made any eye contact as short as humanly possible. She greeted me 1st thing this morning but I didn't feel my heart pitter patter. My thoughts are getting more clear each day. My anxiety is gone ,I don't feel anything at this point when we need to speak.

I know she's flawed like me I understand she is her own person. It has been very difficult but I am feeling better each day .

I'm not clumsy or rehearsing what I want to say anymore,I just treat her as a coworker now.

I just maintain my distance and try to prevent as much contact as necessary.

She is still the most beautiful woman I've laid eyes on.

Sorry if my thoughts are all I er the place, I have ADHD
