How do I 18m stop thinking about her 18f so much?

r/

Context: (skip to the bottom for question) she 18f and I 18m met last August at a youth leadership workshop. We hit it off and stayed in contact (l live in vermont and she lives in new jersey which is about a 4 and a half hour drive) this may we were gonna go to broadway and we confessed feelings each other. (Super exciting stuff) so we plan the whole day out lunch the city and the show. Unfortunately her parents find her texts and apparently she never told them we’d even met so she got grounded. 6 weeks ago… so everyday for the past 6 weeks I’ve been thinking about her non stop. And while I do care about her and do enjoy thinking about the future it also hurts and I miss her and its starting to affect work and sleep and my mental health.

TL;DR; : im just looking for away to limit how much I think about her. I don’t want her out of my mind. But I don’t want her to be my main focus all the time

    Keep yourself busy with your own life, hobbies, jobs, meeting up with friends, etc. Don’t make it seem like it’s bad to think about her, but don’t make it to the point where she’s consuming your thoughts by the second, daily.
