Q: If your world suddenly becomes technicolor and you want to burst with joy when they walk in the room, you probably have romantic feelings. Having a tangled ball of feelings is a sign of romantic interest, too. Just thinking about them might make you feel excitement, anticipation, butterflies, longing, and nervousness all at the same time. If you're feeling overwhelmed, try to clear your mind and reflect on your emotions. Imagine that your feelings are like a pie. As you slice into it, think of each slice as a distinct emotion and identify it. When in doubt, trust your gut. If one person dramatically affects your mood and emotions more than your other close friends, there's a good chance you have romantic feelings for them. View the attraction in the context of your life. Are you going through a rough patch or separation with a current partner? This makes you more vulnerable to emotional swings and changing feelings than normal. Jealousy is a sure sign that you want to be more than just friends. Do you feel possessive, sad, or angry when you see your friend acting flirty with someone else? If they have a significant other, do you resent them, if even on a subconscious level? Spending as much time together as possible is a pretty good indicator of romantic feelings. Preferring to be alone with them instead of in a group is an even stronger sign. When you're at a party or group gathering together, do you try to ditch the others so you can be alone with your friend? If every little thing reminds you of them, you probably have it bad. Keep track of your thoughts, and take note when you wonder what they're doing right now, think about their hair or other little detail, or get the urge to text or call them. Positive illusions, or having a heightened opinion of someone, is a natural part of romantic attraction. For instance, your mutual friends might tease your potential crush about being spastic or always running late, but you think it's the most adorable thing in the world.
A: Pay attention to how your mood changes when you're with them. Look out for feelings of jealousy. Keep track of how much time you spend together. Notice how often you think about them. Take note if you overlook their flaws.

Article: Ginger has been used for a long time to help treat nausea from many different causes. It works by suppressing certain types of brain and gut receptors that are related to the sense of nausea. If you want something to take with you while you're out, consider buying candied ginger. You can simply pop one in your mouth if you experience a bout of nausea while on the go. These can be especially helpful for pregnancy nausea.

Q: If you have children or pets together, work together, or share a social circle, there will likely be times that contact is unavoidable. Make a clear plan that you can both agree to for how to handle those times. Take control of the situation by clearly stating your needs. Keep in mind though, that you may need to negotiate. For example, you may never want to see your ex again, but if you work together, you may need to say something like, "I understand that you need to keep working here, so we'll have to interact occasionally. I can do that, but I won't be engaging with you socially at work, and please don't visit my department unless it's unavoidable." If you have children together, you'll need to establish boundaries around custody, holidays, milestones (such as graduations), and family gatherings. If you feel strongly averse to interacting with your ex at all, you may need to seek the help of a family counselor or lawyer. Write down the guidelines you've both established so you have something to reference if there's a misunderstanding later. This may be difficult, particularly if you still don't feel closure, or if you're deeply heartbroken. It's natural to want to reach out or to find reasons to contact your ex. However, do your best to cut off all contact until you've had time to heal. It can help to delete their number from your phone. This can help prevent impulsive calling or texting. If you feel the need to contact them, spend some time writing in a journal instead. You can write them an imaginary letter, or write out out how you're feeling. This can help you process feelings without actually reaching out to them. If you feel the urge to contact your ex, call a friend instead and tell them how you're feeling. Avoid going to places you know you might run into them. Stay away from the bars and coffee shops they frequent, even if it means changing your usual routine. Don't walk home using the route that goes right by their house. Your ex may reach out to you, even if you've explicitly asked them not to. They may even send flirtatious messages or indicate that they're still interested in you. Do not respond to this. It's disrespectful of the boundaries you've established and to your healing process. Your ex may use flirtation as a way to manipulate you to reestablish contact. Unless they have explicitly said that they want try to get back together on terms that you could agree to, do not respond to their messages. If you're afraid that your ex might stalk, harass, or threaten you, seek support from a domestic violence shelter. You also may want to contact law enforcement or file a restraining order. Remember that "friends with benefits" has the word "friends" in it.
A:
Create guidelines for unavoidable contact. Refrain from contacting them. Ignore flirtation or mixed signals.
