How long before a broken heart truly heals?

Answer 1

A broken heart never truly heals.....the pain may get less as time goes on, but the hurt never goes away.
Who broke your heart???

Answer 2

Depends how the heart was broken. It usually takes someone else in your life and heart to make the hurt go away - then you can forgive and forget and your heart will be healed again. If you have been betrayed in some way then it will take a long time to heal as you need to be able to trust again before you can move on to another relationship. Count your blessings instead of your heartahces and you might feel better.

Answer 3

It might never truly heal. Even long after the event happened, you're still going to have those memories which you shared with the other person. It begins to fade away but at some point, they are going to pop up in your head.
And no, a broken heart does not heal once you move on to the next person.

Answer 4

It's different for every individual, depends on the closeness, the years......some take long like up to 2 yrs! some short withing a month!.... but it said that it should heal faster if you start liking someone else.....that usually helps....a scape goat or something they call it.... anyway I don't really agree that it takes a lifetime....it becomes memories but NOT as painful as you'd feel now when you remember them! "TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS" they didn't come up with that phrase for nothing you know......In the meantime, DONT listen to sad songs, get rid of the stuff that reminds you of that person, DONT stay at home alone...go out...go out and meet other gals!! Good luck... I hope you heal fast! Happy New Year!

Answer 5

It will take a long, long time to heal if you keep choosing the same person over and over (same person, different body) to inflict pain. The pain will pile up, creating emotional scar tissue, until finally you don't feel any of the jibes and insults, but you won't really be healed-- just whiteknuckling it to an early grave.

Answer 6

A "broken heart" is just another form of grief. Greif is cyclical there is no beginning or end. You will eventually start to feel better, and then you will have a memory that will throw you back into that same means of thinking and you will again feel pain. It is not, however, a complete circle. each time you feel better, it will last a little longer and that memory will be a little less painful. Eventually you will learn to live with it and other things will fill your life.

But its not fair to set a specific time, It may be a few months, it may be a few years, it may be the rest of your life, depending on the person. A lot of that depends on how close you were and how long you knew the person.

Either way, I am sorry to hear of your pain. It will get better. It will get worse again, but eventually, it will, really, get better.

Answer 7

You heart never truly heals.. you just become a little more calloused.. and hopefully can think about the good and forget the bad.. and eventually move on to the next person :)

Good luck sweetie :)

Answer 8

by the time you fall truly in love again..

never forget a broken self esteem heals quicker than a broken heart

Answer 9

1-1/2 times the time you were with her. Together 2 years? Takes 3 years to heal.... trust me.

Answer 10

it depends on how long the relationship was and how much you loved her. it could never heal or maybe it does in a few months, but going from a long term relatioship into another relationship after a month of breaking up for me is wrong and called a rebound.
