Is it normal to not be over someone u only dated for a little over a month?

[MikeM3]

It’s been two months since the break up I still think about them everyday. And there's been no contact between us. I always get told by family you two only dated for only a month but we spent pretty much every day together. It’s so hard to forget them. Is something wrong with me?

Nah man, I wouldn't say there's anything wrong with you for still thinking about them after just a month. Every relationship is different, you know? Just because it was short doesn't mean the feelings weren't real.

When you spend that much time with someone everyday, even if it's only a month, you really get close fast. It's easy to fall for someone quick. And breaking that connection can sting, even if it wasn't super long term.

Plus everyone gets over things at their own pace. Two months really isn't that long. I'd say give yourself a break - these things take time. It's normal to still have feelings leftover and wonder what could've been. Don't rush to "get over it" if you're not ready.

Just keep doing your thing, hanging with the guys, focusing on your hobbies. Eventually you'll dwell on it less and less. One day you'll realize you went a whole day without thinking of them. And then a week. Baby steps. You'll get there, dude.

Don't be so hard on yourself just cuz it wasn't a long relationship. Your feelings are valid. It'll hurt for a bit but you'll bounce back. Just ride it out and be kind to yourself, 'kay?

That’s so true. I just got told by family it was such a short relationship how are u even still thinking of them. Made me feel stupid

Ugh, dude I feel ya. Family means well, but they just don't get it sometimes. Don't let them make you feel dumb - your feelings are valid.

Breakups always suck, even short ones. And it's not like a calendar tells your heart how long you're "supposed" to feel sad. Give yourself time to heal man.

Don't stress too much about what they say. Easier said than done, I know. But this is your experience. Keep doing your thing - hang with the boys, play some ball, keep busy. In a few more weeks you'll be back to feeling like your old self.

Trust that it'll get better day by day, even if it's hard to see the light yet. And don't forget - you got this whole friend group always got your back. We been there for all the heartbreaks, that's what homies are for! Chin up dude, you'll be straight.

in my opinion, it's normal and depends on each person whether it can take a while or need long time to forget someone we loved before.
