You must be in lots of pain right now. It's like a wound that will never heal, but you will always be able to see ...

Your feelings are real and valid. Your feelings cannot be wished away that easily. You can mentally distract yourself, but your feelings for that person will always be there.

You can date other people, or find your soul mate. But if your feelings for this person are that strong, you can find your soul mate today and still have feelings for this person tomorrow.

To lessen your feelings for this person, fill your heart with love for someone else, something else, or for yourself. Accepting the reality that you and this person will never be together helps too, and your pain will lessen as you accept the truth day by day.
