writes: I really need help. For the past year I have been in love with someone. He is a lot older than me. He also used to be my English teacher. I gathered the courage to tell him. He was very understanding about it. I keep having sleepless nights and when I start crying I find it hard to stop. Can any one recommend something to help me get over him. I'm starting college in a few weeks and I don't want this to effect it. I am also losing my friends over this. Please help me. I'll be very grateful.

obviously you are disappointed that he did not want to accept you. what you were asking of him was a very big thing! even if he did have feelings for you he could not have done anything about it or else he would have ended up on the sex offenders register and have lost his career in teaching, which is probably his dream job that he has wanted to do since he was a boy.
a year is long enough to mourn this 'what might've been' fantasy, it is time to pick yourself up and come to terms with what has happened.
lots of students fall for their teachers and they mistake the teachers kindness to them for reciprocation of feelings.
start afresh TODAY, what ever friends you have lost because of this - contact them and get back together with them, you need friends in your life or else you will be lonely and lonely people fall into unsuitable relationships.
look forward to college, date guys your own age, have fun, no more crying ok? if you start thinking about your old teacher find something, ANYTHING to do to keep you busy and this will take your mind off him. get into the habit of doing that. it will work i promise! you WILL get over this, but you have been stopping yourself by continuing to think about what happened
