So I al almost there! Lol

2 years
Posted by whatisthisallaboutit took you 2 years or saying that hypothetically?
2 years

3-4 years and It's still a topic I avoid. Someone once told me, you take the length of the relationship and divide it by 2, and that is how long it will take you to get over that person. When she first told me this I was fresh out of a relationship and thought she was exaggerating the length because I felt fine after the breakup....time has shown me and hats off to her 😉

I have that one person that I will never get over. I can move on but not forget.
There is a great line in a Jeff Buckley song that says it all. "(S)he's a tear that hangs inside my soul forever.

Something else. My friend is in love for that man for 30 years but they had been in college and after that saw each other for like 6 times in 20 years!
And she is now more determined than ever! So what is this??

Th lyrics to the song say it all
Posted by VageenkaDid you date anyone during the four years?
4 years. Now I'm completely over him. Sometimes I'll have a dream about him and it'll bring back memories from the past and then I'm over it a half hour after I wake up.
Posted by PeanutButterandEllyit's not getting over them as a person\experience its getting over the pain of losing them or being cheated on by them etc...
It takes time. The reason people say that is because there's no rule, reason or rhyme to how little or how much time it takes lol.
Though honestly I don't 'get over' people I've loved. A part of the experience stays with me forever, good and bad, and I use those times to help me move forward and be the person I want to be. Anyone I can 'get over' I didn't connect with deeply.
A few months
