Too many people are getting emotionally attached to potential boyfriends/girlfriends and this isn't right.
If there hasn't been mutual interest shown I don't think you should start to get attached to them emotionally. And no, a smile or a wave from that cute guy/girl in your class is not mutual interest shown. Until otherwise stated, think of every relationship as a friendship. This keeps your heart free from any emotional "strings".
Once you tie emotional strings they are the hardest thing to get rid of. Jealousy pops up when he hugs another girl or when she laughs at another guys jokes because you have tied thiose strings tight. These strings can poison our relatonships with others, even more, it can make us miss out on the good parts of a genuine and beautiful friendship.
It's honestlyt a difficult thing to do and so I have a few steps! :
Reduce body contact
This sounds like such an old fashioned thing to say but when you always hug that cute guy or girl feelings can start developing. A girl/guy in the wrong mindset can interprete this as more than just a hug while you see it in an opposite light.
Just chill
Not everything has to be about attraction. And that's just the truth of the matter. But it is hard, and we do fight. But remember to fight the fight with Jesus.
Peace and love xx
