How do you know you are over someone???

That's a tough question to really answer. I guess I would say that when you can see them and not get that longing feeling for them anymore. Then you're definitely over them. Also maybe when you find that you have gone a really long time without thinking about or missing them. That could be a sign.

I think before you "get over" someone, the first thing you have to do is accept the fact that you are no longer with them and never going to be again. I don't think you can truly be over someone without that. If you're hanging onto hope that they will "come around" and you will get back together, then you will never get over them (not truly anyway) until you let that go.

I think truly being "over" someone is more than just being over the hurt of breaking up. I know so many people who are so bitterly angry at their exes and to me, that is not really being "over" the person. Maybe that makes me weird, but that's how I feel. Hating someone or allowing them to make you angry means they still have emotional power over you. Someone can't cause you to react like that unless they are still under your skin somehow.
