Getting over as in stop loving her? Practically no time. Getting over as in getting over the damage she did? I don't know if I ever will, but I hope so

About 3 months. We didn't last too long but it was my first relationship so I think that's why it took me a while. But I am over her completely now

jennifer_bloom · Answer

we never dated but I call him a half boyfriend or previous boyfriend cause we both liked each other - he was just too shy and afraid to lose his job if we dated cause he was my supervisor - i feel happy when I think about him and I entrust our lives to God - if he marries another woman - I will be happy he is happy - his happiness is more important to me than my relationship with him

sheikalana · Answer

Started dating in December. Had the most beautiful special months with him until March, then due to covid-19 I got stuck in a different country and haven't got the chance to go back yet. In April/May I started noticing late replies, no more phone/video calls, some days we wouldn't even speak to each other unless I contacted him, those days became weeks of no silence. In July I decided I would stop trying when the other person wasn't making any effort. There was no official break up, there wasn't an explanation, there wasn't a last conversation not even an argument. It's almost October and I still don't know when am I going back, still don't know if I will ever see him again, still don't know if we will ever get the chance to talk about what happened and I'm not over him yet. Some days are better then others and I know sooner or later I will be okay but this whole uncertainty just makes things so much worse.

I gues we both realized that the relationship was over since a longer time when we broke up. It was the first break up where both were okay with^^ It didn't take that long. I had to get uses to live alone now and stuff. But it was like a month or so and everything was ok

Danny_dan92 · Answer

Took some time considering I made a huge sacrifice for her (which lead to her leaving me cause of it) and I thought I was gonna marry her someday.

BUT, to this day I’m doing much better now. I used to think about her every single day and was hella depressed over her and what happened. But not anymore

AliWolf · Answer

Took me a long time but I’m not sure how long exactly. A couple of years. There is a saying that it takes half the time you were in a relationship or in contact with somebody to get over them, so you really have to totally disconnect from someone to be able to get over them i think. You need to heal.

DizzyDesii · Answer

The official one? Not long to move on but he still crossed my mind for like 6 months because we agreed that if we somehow got back together in May of last year then we’d be roommates. So i had a spark of hope at the time. After May passed, i had moved on for sure. Now for the unofficial exes? Oh only about a week to get used to them being gone but i pretty much made up my mind that I was over em before i ended it.

robvc1 · Answer

Still haven't completely to be honest... For me personally it can be very long. Up to 6 month. When I call someone my girlfriend I am very much in love and I want a future so yea it takes time for me.

JackSmy · Answer

I have almost always parted well with just about everyone (those few) and we stay friends, usually, just wanting different things in life, and not having issues, like cheating, or anger or anything (two times only).
It isn't like something to 'get over' because we parted well, and still sometimes text, and chat, and one decided she liked women, and I didn't take it personally! She's happy with her new partner, and I am happy for her!

ettubrutus · Answer

My 7 year relationship ended earlier this year. Honestly, I think I'm doing alright now, not 100% sure though. I still miss her of course but I know things would never be the same if we got back together.

Anonymous · Answer

A couple months. I think on them every now and then, but I would consider myself completely over them at this point. The relationship wasn't incredibly serious, so that made it easier.

EmerP · Answer

It would depend on who dumped who.. If I do the breaking up I wouldn't be too long but i would still think about them from time to time. If he breaks up with me it usually hits me pretty hard if I wasn't expecting it, last time it was abiut 5 months..

BrokenEMT · Answer

Took about six months.

It's been over 15 years since then. About 3 months ago she message me because she thought one of our mutual friends had passed away. So it's definitely brought up some old feelings.

memer2020 · Answer

oh god it took so long so so long , still to this day  i can't find the value of x in my recent math problem

Anonymous · Answer

6 months to a year if i truly cared and the person meant something. If i got heartbroken then probably a week and im over them but still doesn't mean my heart isn't damaged. I just hate the person though if they betray me.

RainInOsaka · Answer

About a year or so, I still think about my ex before bed sometimes but it doesn't get painful so yay I'm officially over it

dreamstar72 · Answer

It took me almost five months to realize girlfriend of 3 years broke up with me after I found out I was instantly over her.

Marilynjuana · Answer

I was over him the second I found out he cheated but I'm still not over what happened. Oh well.

sensible27 · Answer

The only x's I work with are in mathematics and they seem to like me very much, so much so they never seem to wanna replace themselves with an answer. Yeah I suck, at jokes .. and (maybe even) maths
