Dear Diana,
I was friendly with this girl a couple of years ago. We were office colleagues almost a decade ago. I later changed jobs and lost touch with her. I liked her, but did not express my feelings for her. I considered her as special — someone who I could turn to, but she looked at me as a best friend. We used to hang out together and often I used to drop her home. When I changed jobs, I stopped being in touch with her. I think she wanted me to tell her what she meant to me, but I was afraid to express my affections for her. Immediately after we went our ways, I got busy with my new job. I am not in touch with her at all. Though it is the distant past, I still remember her. My family is now looking for a match for me, but I cannot get her out of my head. It is as if she is part of my life. I often wonder what she is doing and if she remembers me. At times, I want to pick up the phone and talk to her. She is married now, so I do not want to create any problems for her. I really do not know what to do. How do I stop remembering her?
