Getting over the break-up quickly? What is the reason for it?

I think it's great that you're able to make sense out of what is usually a confusing time period for people. But keep in mind how recent this may have been and don't be deterred if some feelings resurface.

Was that person the one who initiated the break up? If so, it doesn't mean he/she never cared, it just means they were ready and probably went through most of the agonizing before announcing their intentions. Now if you haven't been together long to begin with, then it becomes doubtful.

No, I don't believe getting over someone quickly means they weren't a significant person in their life. Some people get over things quickly cause they have to move on in life.

Personally I have been though some tough times and learned the hard way in life that when things are over, they are over. Whether its work, love, money, friends. when things are over, they are simply over. be strong, focus on you,your life and your loved ones and what is important to you in life. !

Kind regards,

With me I try to move on for self preservation. I love 100% but if the other person doesn't want to work on things then I have to get over her. If I don't then I'm an emotional wreck and can't function. A guy really doesn't get over his ex if he still loves her but it's something to try and keep his mind off of her.

I used to agonize over break ups, do the 'poor me' bit. But, finally, I realized that I WILL get over it eventually, so why should I wait for 'eventually' to come around? I just got dumped a few days ago, by someone I really liked. It was an ego punch at first; and I allowed myself a pity party for a few hours; with a limit on how long I could boo hoo over it. The time was up, I got up, and got over it. I kept busy with life in general, and made it a POINT to smile and enjoy things, even if I was a bit melancholy. And it worked! Now, I just make sure to remember the things that I DIDN'T like about him, whenever I start thinking back. When you break up, you tend to remember all the good parts of the person and the relationship; you conveniently forget the bad. I just made it a point to remember the bad, and that makes it all the better for me.

Well, good for you! I thought it was other way around.

I t doesn't mean that they didn't love it just means they choose not to dwell over that person because they know that relationship is over and they just choose move forward or they could just be putting on that front to make you think that they are over you

It doesn't necessarily mean that they didn't really love you. They may have kept in mind of calling things off weeks, or even months ago which gave them the head start to prepare for things.

I was once with a guy for 10 months. We had good times, he made me laugh, we were happy, and I love him. I thought. But I called things off the day I came back from a 2 1/2 months trip. I thought about calling things off before I took the trip. We kept in touch on the phone. The time away from him gave me time to fade things apart. When I came back, I didn't have any feelings left for him. It broke my heart because he was such a nice guy. He didn't wan to talk to me for several months. This was nearly a year ago. We still keep in touch as a friends.
