I've finally gotten over my obsession with him

[Cricketsinthesnow]

I had an unhealthy obsession with my coworker for over a year. I really struggled to stop thinking about him and thought I was in love with him, although I kept this all a secret from him.

I'm not sure why, but today whilst we were having a work meeting, I suddenly realised that I'm no longer interested in him. Even the thought of him being with another woman doesn't bother me remotely anymore. I feel incredibly liberated.

I'm not sure why I'm sharing this, perhaps just as hope for others in a similar situation that these emotions can and do come to an end, even if you don't think they ever will.

Excellent! Good for you. It is very freeing.

Good for you!

That’s good news OP.
What do you think happened, just the passing of time?
Have you met someone else?

Thank you! I think it was because we've been speaking a lot this past week, far more than usual and I've learnt more about him. It's nothing bad but it has made me realize that the real him is very different to the idealised version I had of him in my mind.
