Ok, here is my situation. Me and my gf and have been going out together for 4+ years since the beginning of high school. We are now college freshman and go to colleges that are fairly close about two hours away from home but only see each other 1-2 a week. I love my gf so much and have had and still have an amazing relationship with her. A problem I have run into since I started school is dealing with infatuation with another girl at my school. The first time I noticed this girl, I thought she was very good looking. I have no problem with attractive girls what so ever and have found it very easy to stay faithful in the mind to my gf in the past. The strange thing about this girl is that she was about the exact same hight as my gf, exact same hair color, same curly hair, and was taking the same ethics class as me during the semester. Another strange thing is that when I met her, I immediately found out that she moved to my hometown about 2 miles away from my house just a couple weeks before college started. I also found out that she was majoring in the exact same thing as my gf. Then, another weird thing happened. I am a runner and like to go run for a workout about every other day. Strange enough, when I was going on a run, I noticed she was on a run herself and have seen her several times in my runs in the past few weeks.
So basically, its like this girl from the outside is a "premium" version of my current gf. I have an immensely hard time not clinging my mind on her as I see her for a class 3 times a week. I know there is absolutely no concrete reason to do this, but yet I can't seem to make it go away. I never talk to her, in fear, of escalating the problem. This happened to me when I switched high school two years ago, but it wasn't nearly this strong. Has anyone else ever had an experience like this? I feel like Satan has put a perfect storm to hurt the relationship with my gf. What steps would you guys do to take a mental cleansing so to speak?
