How long? A bit different of a question.
Posted: 5/21/2009 5:49:57 PM
Lets say you were in a relationship, an "actual" relationship, not just online, for about 1 year... how long would it take you to get over the relationship if it ended? Lets say you broke it up, but later regretted it? And the other perspective, lets say he broke it up but you still loved him.

How long would it usually take you to get over it? I don't want answers like "it just depends" give me numbers! I just MIGHT give you my numbers if I like you enough btw. :)

You want defined limits on something that is utterly subjective? Not possible.

That's like asking how long it takes someone to chug a pitcher of beer - there are a lot of factors coming into play there.

Exactly 12 months into the next relationship. If your next relationship doesn't last 12 months then you need to start the counter over with the next relationship after that. If that doesn't work then consider yourself to be as moronic as this question.

They say time heals all wounds. That's a load of bull. What actually heals those wounds is getting into a loving relationship with mutual attraction and understanding.

Which takes rather a lot of time I'm afraid!

Stare at a paddle pop stick, when it ceases to resemble your ex then you are ready for a new relationship.

A week, because I hate dwelling on the past.


Lets say you broke it up, but later regretted it?


"Regret nothing, fear less"


lets say he broke it up but you still loved him


I don't believe in love so that's not an issue for me, BUT if I was still interested and he broke up with me....I'd mail him a douchebag and write on it "you are what you receive". (Lol, I'm kidding. I wouldn't do that. )

That's a tough question! And mostly it is by how an individual deals with their emotions mostly. Depending on how deeply you loved this person could you take you longer than a year to get over them or maybe just few months. Some people have a hard time moving forward we human tend to want to hang on and be overly hopeful that the other person will see their way back to us.

Good Luck..

Did you remember to take your sack when you left. If you didn't, grow one

Get over it and move on. It will be easier if you constantly think about all the men that are making nasty freaky monkey love to her, and well.

Generally, and I figured this out when I was about your age, it is directly proportional to the length of time in the relationship. As much as we would like to think there is some finite number, there just isn't. Ending a relationship is a loss, everyone grieves differently. Some people can shake it off others it takes more time. Some never really get over it, if the relationship was long, long term. Relationship of a year, probably will realistically take almost a year. Certainly more than a month or two.

Op... The best way to get over a man is to get under another one.

Mickey.. Mailing the douchebag may not help me get over him, but it sure would make me feel better. * filing away douche bag idea*

I was in a relationship that lasted 7 years. One cold February morning I packed up and walked out on him. 2 months later I became the girlfriend of another. That lasted 2.5 years.

Depends on if a good looking man distracts me. Then my grief goes poof!

1 year? Maybe one tear and I go on living my life.

Are you writing a thesis? Didn't you pose a similar question yesterday? That was "online" and this is "offline"?

Last one that mattered. . . it took me 3 years. Sorry, not very comforting I'm sure.
