I know I'm young but i took several quizzes and read up and they all pointed to me being in love. I don't want to be in love i feel like I'm too young and he has a girlfriend anyway. I'm trying to get over him by not spending every waking minute of my day thinking about him, as usual, and doing something productive.-my plan hasn't worked. I still keep thinking about him. -The only way i can really cheer myself up is if i know there are some people who have it worse off and that i shouldn't be so selfish. Hasn't worked.Any advice? Or maybe a funny story or something to cheer me up? Thanks

 Sorry to hear you're having a bad day.
Unfortunately, plans not working out and friends letting us down from time to time is part of life. If you can acknowledge your disappointment and frustration, but then turn your attention to other things - the book you've been meaning to read, the movie or TV program you've been wanting to see, and keeping in mind that things will get better, it will help you take it in stride and be a learning experience.
As for the boy you're attracted to, you seem to be taking a good, sensible approach to dealing with it: you recognize he has a gf; you refuse to dwell on thoughts of him, and you know you are too young to be in love. In time your behavior will pay off and he will "fade into the background."
Sure, funny stories are a good way to distract yourself......good luck!
