And what I mean is that it takes about that long for me to forgive the wrongdoings I've received, to accept that its over, to be happy that none of us no longer suffering, and be free to welcome the lasting love I'm looking for when it comes.

I didn't say I'd forgive the wrongdoings that I've done myself because I'd be lieing. I always remember them. I don't know how to forget them on my own.

I had two relationships in my life.

1st one: It took me about 8 months to recover and start over gain

2nd one: It took me a year and I am still single, dont know how long it will take me to be fully over it. Though I am seeing a girl these days but we have not even kissed yet.

What I do is that I enjoy myself being alone after a breakup and dont even think of girls till I feel to.

Enjoy this phase my friend and treat your self, spend on ur self and have some quality time before .............

I can get over someone as soon as I want to. But usually I dont want to get over it, I get some sort of sick enjoyment out of sitting around all day in trampy clothes eating junk food lol. Theres one guy who I will never be over and I love that I will always have him as my little crush.

I think most people take so long because they dont actually want to get over the person. I think once someone makes a conscious effort (delete all messages, remove from facebook, stop torturing yourself by wondering what they are up to and who with, stop wanking over the dirty pics you have of them hahaha, stop thinking that things were great when they realy wernt) then it should take about a month max, or maybe thats just me lol.

My exfiance took me a couple of months or so partly because it just felt wrong to be over it so quickly. To me a bad ending to the relationship makes it soo much easier. All I need for closure is the answers to any questions I have and explanations then I was ready to move on.

Depends on the situation. My OH says you should be on your own for a quarter of the time that you were in the relationship, which seems like a sensible measure... though I took about nine months to get over my ex after an 8.5 year relationship. The relationship had been in decline for some time prior to ending, so I was already half over her by the time we broke up, hence why it didn't take longer. After nine months of feeling sorry for myself, angry, etc., I had no feelings left for her and then spent a couple of months developing myself as an individual... then met my 'new' OH just as I was feeling 100% and also having my Jupiter return and a Jupiter transit to my 7th house.

Depends on how long I was with them, the depth of feeling I had for them and how it ended/who ended it.

It took me about a year to fully get over my Sag ex who I was with for 6 years, despite it being me who ended it. I was with an Aqua later for 3 and a half years and it took me no time to get over him because he was a douche of the highest degree and I took great pleasure in dumping his ass.

I do normally find it quite easy to detach and move on.........and then I met my last Scorpio haha.
