4 Ways to Manage Your Desire for Someone Who Is Taken

So, if you want to go the safe route and try to not be as into him as you should, follow these tips.

1. Don’t Be Too Hard on Yourself

It’s okay to like someone who’s taken. You’re not a home wrecker! It’s perfectly fine to admire the qualities of a guy, even if he’s already in a relationship with someone else. However, you have to keep in mind that you can only admire him from a distance. He can’t be yours, or at least he can’t be yours, unless he’s suddenly single.

Just bear in mind that admiring him from afar is very different from squeezing yourself into his life to steal him away. You have to know that if you try to make him fall in love with you, you might end up ruining his relationship with someone. Do you really want that on your conscience?

2. Double Check if He is Indeed with Someone

Social media can be the bane of someone who’s in love. You may be in each other’s social networks, and that’s how you learned to fall head over heels for this guy. If you see photos of him getting cozy with someone, try to do a little more research.

Who knows, those photos might be from eons ago! He might only look like he’s taking pictures with his girlfriend, but they’re just pictures of him and a close female friend.

In addition to this, if you found out that he’s taken only through hearsay, find out for sure. 

It may appear like you’re a little too eager to find out, but it’s better than giving up on someone simply because you THOUGHT he was taken!

3. In Proving That He is Indeed Taken, Keep His Girlfriend in Your Mind

Thinking of her helps keep you in check. You wouldn’t want to make an enemy of someone you barely know. Remember that there’s a reason they’re together. You wouldn’t want to be the reason they’re torn apart, would you?

4. Try to Put Some Distance Between You and the Guy

This may be the hardest thing you’ll have to do. You may really enjoy his company, but staying in it will make you see just what you’re missing. It might make you do something completely crazy, like suddenly kissing him when no one’s looking!

  It’s so important to check in with people. Companies conduct annual reviews with employees. Kids get report cards.

Here are 4 questions to ask your spouse daily. 1. What made you smile today? Former Speaker of the House Chris Sprowls visited our office one day and shared his evening routine. He sits around the dinner table with his family every night and asks for their “high-low-funny,” meaning the best, worst, and funniest moments of the day.
