An ex, a secret crush, a bestfriend, un-requited? Whats the longest it's taken you to get over a single person?...or are you still not really fully over them?
me...one year and counting, but definently doing better
Give it few more months, they will be pivotal.
To be honest, to answer your question, I got over people easily in my dating days (and still do when it comes to friendships). It's a major flaw of mine, I believe. I am capable to adjust to living a life without people I love or like pretty fast. That's why I never went back and forth with the same man. Usually a break-up with a person would mean the end of story for me, next, been-there/done-that kind of thing.
I never get over anyone, I can remember a girl who asked to sit by me in a crowded cafeteria, she was from out town, we had a nice chat, shared lunch, loved her Philly accent, I think about her from time to time. That was 30 years ago.
I don't know if I can answer this one, because I have trouble drawing the distinct line between getting over "losing the ex" versus getting over "losing the life that I had wanted with the ex". Do I still cry over the few men that I gave so much of my time and energy to? No.. but I still cry over so much of my heart that I gave, in return for dreams that never came true.

Well, it was four or five years before I became serious again with someone. I had "gotten over" that guy, whom I grew up with, but I had sworn off relationships, period. The new guy charmed me out of that. We've been together 17 years. To anyone who's wondering, you can get through anything.

Does that make sense?
This is a very good point. Yes, it makes much sense.
