How does one get past unrequited love. I have fallen in love with someone but our life situations make the relationship impossible. What is the best way to get beyond it. I can't sleep, I can't eat, I can't think. What should I do.

Well if you think its impossible there is your answer. Just move past it, no contact at all, no looking at pictures secretly on myspace, no keeping up through mutual friends....give it a proper end false hope will just lead to broken hope eventually.

That you recognize the situation is helpful. Is it truly unrequited? Persons in established relationships are able to love or care for another. Perhaps you could be very good friends. If it really is unrequited, you need a new focus. Sounds goofy, but once you point your focus on another matter, you will feel the previous obsession fade. Just chose a path, and stay on it.

A lot of time is the only way. It can take years however for it finally to fade away

Perhaps start by choosing the term "rising" instead of falling...in love. Having seen how you have risen and been positively impacted and therefore elevated in you..you can recognize with that enhanced power to choose to see that its YOU that you are feeling enhancement in not from the other...he/she only struck a resonant chord in you ..about you..for you to stand in and come from...

I did that too. It took three years, but things did work out and we are married now for 11 years. What is impossible for men is possible with God.

This is easier said than done, but find something that you really enjoy doing. Dive into it, don't stop until it is a completed task. Then, find another thing that interests you. Put yourself in a situation where you can help others, in other words, get busy. Keep yourself busy. Before you know it, the unrequited love will not be so important anymore. Goodluck buddy.
