letting go of unfinished business

Can you write about letting go of the past, especially of unfulfilled dreams, of what we may consider "unfinished" business with a past partner/love? I have to do some heavy-duty letting go. I need to let go of a love I've carried in my heart for the past 17 years. I must let him go completely, with no hope of a reunion in the future - which is the reason I think I haven't been able to fully commit to someone during these past few years.

I would love to get your perspective and advice on this. Can you offer a process? Something I can do to let it go not just from the surface, but from deep inside. I know it's going to take a lot of inner work. Part of me would love to do something like in the movie "eternal sunshine of the spotless mind" where I could, through hypnosis, erase all past memories and just be able to look at the person with no heavy-duty emotions attached to that individual.

I think you may have already written about this, but can you revisit the topic? I think this would be a great gift for many, thank you!
