Ask yourself whether you really like them for what they are
Obsessing over someone usually implies idealizing the person and not knowing them that well. If you see your crush as a perfect mythological being, an angel from heaven sent especially for you, you might miss out on what they actually are and how they behave.
As soon as you start perceiving your crush as a human being, rather than a deity, your obsession will stop and you will be able to have a normal conversation with them or even a relationship. Remember, no human being is perfect and you’re setting yourself up for disappointment when you idealize someone.
