How long does a broken heart last for? Minutes? Hours? Days? Weeks? Months? Years? Forever? Should we keep our heart out of our relationships? Will this protect us? If not, how do we protect ourselves? I'm tired of hurting, aren't you? What's your biggest or most memroable hurt? Does it still linger? Did you learn from it? Do the tears ever stop or are they proof to the world, yes I do hurt? I'm not a dark, crazy, or hurtful person, so why do I always end up on the wrong end of the "pain meter"? When do my lessons end and I find peace and happiness? If anyone can answer these mysteries, then please try, and help my understanding of what is going on. Please help. Please answer.

Should last until sundown. Then get off your rear end and go out. Get laid and move on.

wow, tons of questions. Let me try to sum it up... Your heart is broken, and it sucks, but it's a good thing. You learn from the pain you feel- about others and yourself. Use this knowledge to "protect" yourself in the future. See the warning signs of an abuser, a cheater, an addict, etc. But, do not protect yourself from getting close to someone. You can't find true happiness without putting yourself out there. As for always ending up on the wrong end of the pain meter, take an honest look at your decisions. Are you learning from your past experiences? Are you only choosing to be with a certain "type" that really isn't for you? Do you get some sort of enjoyment from a recurring bad decision? Is that working for you or dragging you down? You may always have some lingering feelings, but that's how you know that someone meant something to you, and that you have it in you to love and be loved again. As for time, only you can choose how long it takes.

The heart needs time , there's no exact time it all depend on how much you care . It can take anywhere from one day to years... I personally have went threw a heart break and everyday i felt like there was no tomorrow . The world is going to help you move on and get pass all of your pain and just think about how karma is going to come back on them when they really care .Right now you should love yourself and think about how this is not the end and you learned from this and you won't let anyone else hurt you the way that person did. The tears do stop but you will never forget like my friends told me its better to love then not to love at all because some people have know feelings to even begin to know how it feels to love someone or for someone to love them.In the end you will be happy to see it could have been worse.

How long does a broken heart last for?? That all depends on "YOU". Life is too short to keep your heart out of relationships. We all get our heart broken at times. But when you do be sad for a few days, take time for yourself for a while but pick your face up off the floor and keep it movin. Not all of your relationships will last forever but just think of it as a lesson. Every guy you deal with teaches you more and more. One day you will realize what you and and don't want in your husband. The tears will stop and so will the pain. Just keep busy and keep your mind off of him. I know it seems like the end of the world right now but you will get over it and you will be ok. Trust me. I have been there many times before. Life is way too short for you not to fall in love. Keep falling. Some will let you fall and others will pick you up. Good luck. I hope this helps

This is life. Broken hearts hurt, sometimes for years. There is nothing you can do is except to go forward. Maybe you are letting the wrong kind of men in your life. Do some soul searching and see what kind of people you have let into your life. Make some changes. Only associate with people who bring you positive energy. They won't bring you down.

Just look at it now as a dissapointment. Tomorrow it will be a blessing. You are going to get stronger and stronger and too bad but people going to tell you that you're hurting them but its just that your heart is not in it anymore and you dont feel the feelings which cause you to jurt so deeply. Believe me I have been there.

It depends on the person who's heart is broken and why it is taking them so long to let go. Get yourself busy with something else that will help you get through.

It is better to have loved and lost, then to never loved at all.Even though it hurts in the end. I think it makes us stronger.In every relationship there is a giver and a then their is a taker. The taker always wins because he is more selfish. It is wrong to say but if your more selfish you'll win in love

You never get over it -- you just learn to live with it. You will find other relationships, which will be fulfilling and productive, even though the hunger to re-capture the first one lives in you all your days. Go out and meet somebody new.
