I don´t think you ever truly get over somebody.
If you have had a good relationship and things go wrong for whatever reason, then you move on, but there is always a small corner of the heart that belongs to that person.
This is of course only if the relationship has run it´s course and the break up is not for really serious reasons.
The key of course is not to carry these past experiences with you into the next relationship. If you do then it will surely fail.
I still love my ex husband, but not in the romantic way. How could I not? We were together most of my adult life, but we grew apart.
I would never contemplate a life with him again, even though it is still a possibility.

How can that question possibly be answered? Jez.... It cant..
Depends totally on why a relationship finished, and why..

I was married 38 years and knew Liz for 40 years before she died a couple of years ago. How long is hard to say! We knew 22 months before she died that it was going to happen. The grieving started then. I don't believe that there is a set time for grieving. We are unique and different and it depends on how strong the relationship was.... might was very strong. You start to move on, but it brings you back. One day you wake up and you know it is okay to move on.

Just keep your eyes open for that one lady that catches your fancy. You never know when you will turn around and see her. Enjoy your trip,John.

Anything's possible, right Jan?
I think the ripped apart feeling you get when you break with someone lasts depending on the depth you felt with them. The last time I was in love with a woman, it took me over three years to not get queezy stomach when thinking of her....

Truly I am fine. I'm okay. It has been five years since I knew she was dying. I have grieved. I cried. I got depressed. I have moved on.... Today I am a normal, happy guy dating ladies when they will accept a date.

Thanks... I am having a blast so far. I have my eyes open for her. Hopefully she will find me and take me off the market and I can show her the world through my travels.

Anything is possible James, you are quite right.
Life is hard, break-ups are hard, but it is certainly true that time is a great healer.
The most difficult thing is to not waste time thinking about what could have been if....
Happiness is always just around the corner methinks.

enough28: In your opinion whats the lenght of time for grieving a relationship??
the best i heard for a guide was 1 month for every year... and the one gal replied to my poll (how long after divorce)... that she did not properly let go for three years...with that in mind i am trying hard not to hang on....my friend davy said that its best to remember the bad times.......it makes it easer to let go...

It usually depends how much 'Money' and 'Assets' the Lady got out of him....if she got the lot... the grieve will last for about 'one second' and that's even pushing it....but if the Lady is unsuccessful she will grieve for his 'Blood' for all 'eternity'........

When you decide it's time to move on...
Obviously, this question is purely circumstantial depending on the individual's perspective and all the elements involved.
Time and reflection does heal...as well as reality. It's no walk in a park.

I think it depnds on how that relationship ended in the first place.
I think sometimes it's also easier to get over a death cause with death there's no choice in the matter.When someone breaks up with you,they're still there,and feeling of rejection only increases.Plus it depends on what you mean 'by get over.'
