How do you forget someone?

Not really. Okay, here goes.
There's this girl, and although we never really dated, I had a crush on her (well, you can't really call it a crush if it lasts for two years, can you) and she had a crush on me. After those two years, though, I moved away. I never had a chance to say good-bye, I had to leave too suddenly.
That was about two years ago. I have a girlfriend who I really like, but I can't stop thinking about the one. We haven't spoken in almost two years, and I still can't stop thinking about her.
That last thing I heard, she tried to kill herself and some others and was placed in a mental facility. The only way I could stop thinking about her is if I could somehow let her slip from my mind.

When you think of her, you think that you could have saved her, and lived happily ever after together. There is a lot of emotion tied to that kind of thinking, I know. I wanted to save my ex,. but I couldnt.
Dont think you could have saved her. This girl was not just suicidal,. she was psychotic. Seriously. You could not have just loved her better. Stop thinking that way. You dodged a bullet, thats all there is to it. Now love the one your with. That is your road to happyness.

Your options are few. Either get a chance to talk to her again so you can properly say goodbye and give yourself closure. Give it more time and concentrate as much as possible on the girl at hand. Or stay out of any relationships for a long time while you occupy yourself.
Don't focus on forgetting her, focus on occupying your mind with other matters or people.

I tink what everyone is trying to say by their off topic posts.
Is that you just have to live with it and just put your mind to other things.

Pretty much over time, though there are certain people, who become close friends or partners thats very hard to forget no matter how long they've been away. And you'll never _really_ forget someone, you'll always remember them, it'll just stop hurting so much over time, then it'll be more like looking at a photo album of the past without the painful feelings.

I can think back to ex's now that a few years ago would have torn me apart just even hearing their name. So time does help. Still miss some of them from time to time but I imagine thats perfectly natural thing to do.

I've got one word for you, "Time". That's all there is to it. Eventually other things in your life will take precedence. At some point your thoughts will focus on another girl, taking the place of the previous. My girlfriend and I broke up over a year ago. We had lived together for three years prior to our breakup. I still haven't completly forgot her, and I may not ever forget. But as time has gone on, it has become less prominent. Be patient, it'll work itself out.

You could just give it time, but dwelling on things for too long isn't healthy or constructive. Just find as many things to do to fill your time with, or focus on improving your relationship with your current girl. It might be helpful to try and meet the girl again because that would resolve any underlying curiosity you have about her.
