Some of y'all were real quick 😅
How long did it take you to get over your last ex?
Almost instantaneous... I was better off not dating her - there were a lot of issues, and it got old, quick.
None of the relationships I've had have lasted very long, so the breakups were usually pretty easy for me. Like I'm much happier not putting up with cheating or other kinds of habitual lying, so I was over them pretty quickly. I suppose I'd need more time to process if any of them lasted almost a year or longer.
Now - I also didn't date right away, and if anyone had been up for it, I probably would have turned them down... so if I sort of needed to decompress, I wasn't jumping into anything too soon after, just in case.

3-4 months. I thought it'd take forever to get over her since she was my first. But then the relationship grew toxic and I thought it's for the best me and her parted ways. I wish her good luck but I'm over her.
As hot as he was, he had some health problems running in his family, that are almost exclusive to Asians.
I was an European, with fresh blood, willing to have 4-5 children with him, who’d be fit and healthy and I loved him more than anyone else in this world and I supported, understood and made him feel wanted more than anyone else ever will, he loved me until he betrayed.
So, it’s his loss I guess.
Took me 9 months as it was a backstab and he was my fiance. But I got over him. Next one must be better.

I tend to naturally pull away while I am with them. Every time they make me cry that’s one less cry I need at the end. It’s a curse and also a blessing because I have only ever had 1 bad break up where I couldn’t get over the guy. On the other side it’s hard to reconcile or work on things for me, I just can’t and it’s something deep rooted inside me. I walk away completely unscathed when I’ve had enough.

You don't really get over an ex, as in forgetting them or erasing all signs of the harm they have done. You learn some lessons, digest what happened, the sharp edges on your feelings get rounded over, and then you decide it's time to move forward. Last time was about three months for me.

Can’t remember but I know I got over one so quickly which surprised me coz I was so in love with him and we were together for a while. But his true colours showed so that gave me a rude awakening. Which I thanked him for.

I do not feel sad at all that I’m single, but I believe I would be happier if I married one of the last two guys I was interested in. I’m happy now but might be even happier with a guy.

About 5 min.
I was going to break up with her, but she called first to break up with me.
That saved me that call.
She seemed a bit taken back with my attitude.
I was very happy and cheery on the phone.
I don't think she was expecting that based on how she was talking to me, and kept pausing after my responses.
She was hot, but I could see it just was not going anywhere.
I think she was still hung up on her ex.
Onward and off ward to newer and exciting things. -
To be honest I thought it was going to take long months but I refused to be sad and stay at home crying while he was already having fun with other women and after what he did to me. I put myself out there and met new people been in a relationship with an awesome guy for seven months now. I know a lot of people would not agree with what I did and in previous relationships I stayed single for at least six months after the breakup.

Not long. I was thinking of dumping her for a while. We were going to a concert and I was going to dump her after that. Ironically I met my future wife the next day.

I was already over him before we broke up. He’d cheated on me twice and stolen from me on a regular basis. We were stuck living together since we had a shared lease, so I was just biding my time until the lease ended before breaking up with him, since it would’ve been awkward to break up while having to share the same bedroom. But I was emotionally disconnected from him 3 months before we broke up.

4 months. I thought it would be easier since she cheated on me, but it took longer for some reason. I only attract the psychos for some reason, I swear! Sometimes I think there's something wrong with me.
I have no luck with the opposite sex. If I was bi-sexual, I'd switch for sure! I need a puppy. They're good companions! - 379 opinions shared on Break Up & Divorce topic. u
I didn't have to... it was mutual and in very good terms
so we had some sort of transition time, till we were finally ready to be happy for one another, moving on -
Not my ex per se but a guy I was infatuated with took over 6 years to get over. We had a brief fling that I thought was going to turn into something more but it didn't.

Literally, years! And it's been over fifty years, and I still think about her. It's not like I'm pining away here, I'm happily married and I have three wonderful daughters, and I would never do anything to hurt them or destroy my family. But there are some experiences that remain with you all your life.

It’s been about 10 years since she passed away. I’ve been ready to move on, but still miss her…
-
Dependa how soon new new ray of hope is available 😂
-
It has never taken me long because I have always known it was over before the words were said.
-
It's an on going process dear. Moving on might be more appropriate. Moving further away step by step. Sometimes two steps back and one step forward sometimes backwards and so on
-
I was already over it. I wouldn't end it unless it was already over.
-
12 year relationship took about 4 years of shadow work and therapy. After the official break only a few months.
-
After my wife passed away - 5 years.
One relationship - Just over a year.
Last relationship - 2 months now.
-
it took me a really long time and honestly I don't know if i'm even over him yet tbh
-
As long as it takes. Depends on what kind of "getting over" you mean.
