    Is there any way to speed up the recovery after missing a perfect opportunity?
    Better give some background information: Met girl. I really liked her and decided to ask her out. However, I couldn't raise the necessary courage and decided to wait until I could. But eventually we began to drift out of contact and neither of us did anything about what I'm fairly sure was a mutal attraction. Couple of months later and I find out that she's dating someone else. I won't say anything (because it won't do any good and also he's a good guy and he seems to really love her) but it's proving a little difficult to get her out of my head. Any suggestions to help me along?

    this has happened me a few times and i realised that i only start thinking about her again after i hear she is with someone else and therefore "unattenable".

    its wanting what you cannot have syndrome i think and it will pass in a fairly short space of time in my experience(2 weeksmax)

    No quick way around it really. Be happy for her, don't interfere, she has someone looking after her well. Don't hold back your feelings in the future. Good luck.

    QFT

    Reading what your saying OP reminds me of when I too had very strong feelings for a girl and did not act on them in time, now 8 yrs on I still think of her from time to time and have that same feeling of regret. In truth you never really do get over it, not that that helps you :)

    Sorry. I dont see the perfect opportunity there? Perhaps explain.

    I see the perfect opportunity as her hand on your inner thigh breathing heavily in your ear, not as you explained.

    How to get over her? Come into reality. Point a finger at yourself and say in a loud boistrous voice "I fúcked up. I had a chance (?) and blew it. I am a procrastinating twat". Then giggle at yourself.

    K-

    Best way to get over one is to get on top of another.

    I dont mean to be crude, but you are dealing with losing some girl you never had except in some pretty hot fantasies that never happened or will happen.

    In reality she may well have had terrible smelling feet, been quite the fan of reality tv, determined to wait until shes married and used txtspk when posting on boards.
    I reckon u r best off without her. That txtspeaking, smelly frigid cow!

    'It might not have worked out anyway, I was in the same situation a few months ago, after about 6 months we got together and I was so happy but it only lasted a month and I was gutted when it ended, believe me its worse now that I had him and lost him than it was when I was just dreaming about him.'

    So just give it time? Sounds fair. Don't worry, I really won't do anything as it won't work and her boyfriend really would try and kill me if I did. The fact that he could easily rip out my ribcage and wear it as a hat is reason enough for me to avoid trying anything.
    Still sucks though.
