Accept that you can't force people to reciprocate your feelings.

The first step in accepting that the person you love does not love you back, is realizing that you cannot make them do so. It doesn't matter how much time has passed, or whether or not they have moved on with someone else—you cannot force someone to love you.

If your goal has been to get over your feelings for someone and start dating again, then keep in mind that this isn't something that can be forced either—you simply need time and patience while working through your feelings. It'll take time before you will feel ready enough to meet new people again and start dating.

Get closure if possible so you can make a clean break.

One of the most important things to do when you’re trying to stop loving someone is to get closure. This can be achieved in a variety of ways, depending on your situation. If you still have access to the person you are trying to stop loving, one option is talking directly with them about it. You may be able to find some measure of comfort in this, though it may prove difficult if they don’t seem interested in talking about your relationship and why it ended. Another option for getting closure would be writing down what happened during your relationship and how you feel about it now (this can also serve as an outlet for all those feelings). If this doesn’t work or isn't feasible, then try speaking with someone else who knows both parties involved—that way they can act as a mediator between the two parties while helping both sides understand each other better so everyone feels like they've been heard.

If none of these options work out, then consider seeing a therapist who specializes in helping people through breakups and gone wrong—but remember that not all therapists are created equal! Be sure that whoever treats this type of issue has experience dealing specifically with breakups because otherwise he or she might recommend strategies like "moving on" instead of actually addressing why certain relationships end up being toxic ones where we keep going back even though we know better by now--especially if we've been there before!

Create some distance if your plan is to be friends.

If you've decided to end things with this person, but still want to be friends, the best way to create some distance between the two of you is by being clear about your intentions. You should make it clear that you are no longer interested in a romantic relationship with them, but that you would like to remain friends.

This may sound obvious—but there's a lot of room for error here! You don't want to be too pushy or cold about how things are ending; if done wrong, this could push someone away from wanting anything more than friendship with you (even if they were open-minded about such an arrangement). Be sensitive towards their feelings and remember that the person might feel hurt by what's happened between them and their ex—and they might need time alone before they're ready for any kind of new relationship.

Be honest with yourself about what you most need in this person's absence.

Be honest with yourself about what you most need in this person's absence. What do you want them to do? How do you want them to behave? Think about what would make your life more meaningful and satisfying without this person, then focus on making those things happen. If the answer is “I need more time with my family” or “I need more exercise” or “I need a new hobby,” then go out and get it! Get moving! Join a club or take up tai chi! Whatever it takes—just make sure that whatever it takes doesn't include contacting your ex-lover.

Try distracting yourself with new hobbies, friends, or a romantic interest in someone else.

• Get out of your comfort zone

• Join a club or take up a new hobby. This will force you to meet new people and get out of the house. It's also a great way to distract yourself from your feelings for someone else, as well as reconnect with your passions. If nothing else, it may make you realize that there's more to life than being in love with someone who doesn't feel the same way about you anymore.

• Take up a sport that requires lots of physical activity: running, biking, swimming—anything that gets the blood pumping through your body is bound to help distract you from obsessing over this person who doesn't want anything more than friendship from you (or maybe they just need time).

• Ask friends or family members if they know anyone who might be interested in dating or spending time together as friends; even if nothing comes from it now, it could lead somewhere later on down the road!

Use journaling to process your emotions and find emotional distance from the situation.

Journaling can help you process your emotions and find emotional distance from the situation. Journaling can also help you find closure, a new perspective, or new meaning in the situation.

When writing in your journal try to write as much as possible without pausing to second-guess what you've written. This will allow you to get all of your thoughts out onto paper without stopping to overthink things or edit yourself too much. It's really important that you don't censor yourself while writing because this only serves as a way for us to avoid getting real with ourselves and our feelings about something difficult like losing someone we love who doesn't love us back anymore—or at least not enough for them stay with us forever despite their knowing full well how much pain they're causing us by leaving when all we want is for every single day spent together should feel like Christmas morning with presents under every tree branch! Okay? You got that? Good."

Cut off communication when it isn't healthy for you to hear from them.

The first step to cutting off communication with someone is a simple one: you must decide if this person is healthy for you. If they are, then you should be able to talk to them as often or as little as you want. If they are not healthy for your life, then it’s time to make some changes in order to protect yourself from further damage and stress.

This can be hard because love is often associated with being open-minded and understanding towards others. But when someone does something harmful towards the people around them (like a toxic partner who continually gaslights their partner), it becomes necessary for other people in the relationship to speak up about what's wrong so that everyone involved can have a better experience moving forward.

The best way I know how: communicate with honesty, kindness, compassion and respect while maintaining boundaries so that both parties feel heard without sacrificing each other's needs or feelings of safety within their relationships!"

Get help if you're dealing with depression or other mental health issues.

If you're dealing with depression or another mental health issue, it's important to get help. If you've never been diagnosed before, it can be difficult to know whether or not your feelings are normal and temporary or if they're symptoms of a more serious condition. The National Institute of Mental Health offers information on how to find a therapist who specializes in treating depression. Whether you choose medication or therapy as your method of treatment, seeking support from a professional can make all the difference in feeling like yourself again.

Give yourself space 

This may seem like an obvious step, but it’s an important one.

When you’re ready to move on, distance can be your best friend. Even an occasional text, call, or Snapchat can rekindle those feelings you thought you’d already left behind. 

You may want to avoid contacting the person unless you really need to, like if you share custody of children or work together.

If you’re friends who used to spend a lot of time hanging out, it may be wise to spend time with other friends for the time being.

You might want to maintain your friendship. That’s not a bad goal if the relationship was healthy. But consider waiting until the intensity of your love fades. Otherwise, you may end up causing yourself unnecessary pain.

Loving someone isn't a bad thing, but moving on when they don't love you back is an important step to take back control of your life and your happiness.

• You can't force someone to love you.
• You can't make someone love you if they don't.
• You have to accept that they don't love you and move on.
• You have to accept that you can't make them love you.
• Take some time for yourself and do whatever makes YOU feel good!
• Stop thinking about them all the time 
• Put yourself out there so you can meet new people who will appreciate all the qualities about you 

The bottom line

Humans are unique beings with complex emotions. No matter how much you want to stop loving someone, it’s hard to simply flip a switch on your feelings.

You may always carry those feelings with you in some form. Love doesn’t always go away just because we want it to.

But even if you can’t entirely stop loving someone who doesn’t love you or who’s caused you harm, you can manage those feelings in positive, healthy ways so they don’t continue to cause you pain..
