How long does it take to get over an ex of 2 years? I still think about him, but I don't want him back.?

Answer 1

All you really need to do is the opposite of what you have always done
you need to spend more time with friends
you need also to try and meet new men friends as well
tell your women friends that you are ready to move on and they will help you find someone new
you just need some spice in your life
you need to do the things you used to enjoy in life when he was not there a part of your life
i could go on and on
BUT I THINK YOU GET THE PICTURE
I KNOW THAT YOU WILL GET OVER HIM
I HOPE IT IS MUCH SOONER THAN YOU THINK
I'M HOPING FOR YOU
ACTUALLY I KNOW THAT YOU WILL GET IT DONE
JUST BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND DO THE ENJOYABLE THINGS IN LIFE TO LOVE TO DO

Answer 2

First you have to ask yourself do you really want to get over him? If you do then you start finding things that don't remind you of them. Next you find something that will help you heal like hanging out with friends going for a ride and you do this until you feel you are ready to embrace the crossing over. And that brings you to the last stage keeping yourself open to other people because most guys can tell when a girl has just broken up with another guy. Then before you know you are smiling again. Like I always tell my friends and myself it hurts getting over him/her but in the end only time will tell if you really want him/her back

Answer 3

I have read (sorry, can't find the source) that it takes an average of 4 years to really get over a failed relationship. But you know, how ever long it takes is how long it takes--you don't have to worry about following anybody else's timeline. Hang in there!

Answer 4

As long as it takes. I still think about all of the women I've loved during my life. Sometimes I miss them dearly and other times I'm just reflecting. The pain does go away in time. You'll find yourself missing how you felt about them because you no longer feel that way, but you can remember the way you felt. I look at all of my heartbreaks with a positive idea that I'm just shaping myself for a person I haven't met yet.

Answer 5

I am sorry to say, but if love was involved you will never get over it. But life will get easier to face, the birds will still sing tomorrow, and the sun will rise. So remember the good times you had, and use the reason you broke up as a tool for , what not to do, or what to look for when looking for another man. Good Luck to you.

Answer 6

It can take a long time. Too long, because you are wasting
good time that you could be using to find someone else to
have fun with.

This totally works: When you think of him for instance when you
are shopping. Ask yourself if he ever thinks of you when he's shopping now. Probably not. So, he's not worth your thought-
move on. If you are looking at the phone one night depressed
because he's not calling- ask yourself if you think he's sitting at
home staring at the phone waiting for your call. Probably not- move on. If you're staying at home on New Year's Eve because you miss him- ask your self if you think he's staying home because he misses you on New Year's Eve. Probably not.
Try to get on with your life and don't look back. It's really just
a waste of time.

Move forward and don't look back. Good luck to you. There will
be a day when you probably won't be able to remember his last
name.

Answer 7

don't set a time limit for that sort of thing, you're not weird if it takes you a year or 6 days, it's different for everyone and I am sorry but there is no good answer to this one. Just be yourself, have fun and get back to living your life and before you know it, you will realize you've moved on! you'll do fine!

Answer 8

There is no time frame to get over someone. Time will only tell. And it is healthy to think about them still but not want them back. Go out and have fun with your girl friends. Trust me laughing will ease the pain.

Answer 9

Just try not to think about him. You should hide all the stuff that he's given you and any other memories with you two. If you don't want him back, haven't you gotten over him? I think about times with my ex, but I don't feel anything. I wouldn't say that you're still attached, I'd say, you're just reminiscing (sp?)

Answer 10

I think eventually you will forget about him, especially when someone better comes along. It's hard right now, I could understand that, but as soon as you find yourself thinking about him, immediately occupy yourself with something else. He's not worthy of your time. You guys broke up for a reason, and focus on how it didn't work, and how you're much better off. I hope I helped :)
