Situation
Ok so I had this friend. One time we were at this party and like I got this weird feeling like “oh what if I’m leant to be with this person” and I felt something crushy in my stomach. I would dismiss this as an intrusive thought but it felt as though I was entertaining it. I brushed it off and forgot about it. Fast forward 4 months later I am lonely because I am a commuter at college and want to make plans with some friends. I clicked with this person well and I forgot about that incident so I ask this person to hang out. ABOJT 3 days before we’re supposed to hang out I remember the incident and I’m like “shit” and then I keep worrying if I have a crush on them. I worry because I’m scared of emotionally cheating on my girlfriend. I ended up hanging out with them anyways and I was riddled with anxiety and “crush” feelings. I am so scared since I hung out with this person alone that I cheated and we got some food. The “feelings” only went away when we we’re laughing together. I have a feeling this was all ocd and it wasn’t real however I can’t stop wondering why the thoughts I had before all this happened. Could someone help with coping? I am struggling
