Lots of people say time will heal you but a lot depends on the connection you had to the person you lost. If the emotional connection was strong, then time or finding someone else will have only a minimal effect.

It also depends on what you mean by "lost". If it was through death, then you must go through the grieving process. It is an individual thing and will take as long as it takes. There are support groups throughout every community to help you find your way.

If it was a relationship breakup, the process is actually much the same but with important differences.

if the person really meant a lot to you, it probably won't be easy.

how "lost" are they? I mean, will you see them frequently or not? If not, then move on with your life, trying new things, meeting new people.

however, if you are going to be seeing them, then you need to change your routine. Pick new ways to get places, consider moving, etc. The more changes you make, the less there will be to remind you.

One important thing to do is find ways to get involved with helping other people. As you see people with problems larger than yours, it brings things into perspective.

In my life, three of the most important men in my life - my grandfather, father-in-law, and most recently my dad, have all died. Two of these I'd known for over 40 years. So I don't suspect that I'll ever get over them. But I have noticed that the times I think about them are not as painful as it once was.

You realize that life is longer than the time you spent together.

Think about that, most humans live to be 75-80. How long do you really want to spend mourning someone that wasn't even with you long enough to make a long term impact. Think about when you were a kid and broke a crayon. You cried, right? Seems silly now, doesn't it? In a few years, you'll look back on this time and think yourself silly for clinging to an ideal of a person that simply wasn't ideal for you.

How do you get over someone you lost? NEVER!!!! But time does heal and time does make it go easier. i lost my dad 27 years ago and my mom 5 years ago can i say i'm over it NO i will never get over the lost but time heals all pray for closers or to help make you strong. nothing can be said or done to take the hurt but being around friends and family can help i don't know who you lost but i sure hope time will heal your heart.God Bless You.

if i give an answer, it means i should be practicing it, right? so to get over someone i have lost or someone i need to get away from so that i can be the person i need to, i need to walk away and not look back, keep busy and move on.

It is very hard to get over it when you have lost your most loving partner of life...its very easy to give advice .....:( i have tried every thing...kept my self busy.....changed the life style...go away from the places we used to go to gather but when ever u will be alone noting will be right in your heart..you no moor feel happiness in any thing..years and years past and loneliness increases...u know i come to know the meaning of this now that. when ppl say happiness is not out side ,it is inside you....

I dont know how to tell u that.It hurts to lose someone u loved..But the best way to get over it is to think of the good memories and not the bad and to also tell urself that they are in a better place...Be happy for them..

There's a normal series of steps to work through. Getting through them is how you get 'unstuck' on go on with your life. Check out the wikipedia article, and get a recent book on the stages of grief. Finding someone to talk to about it will help, too.

Good luck.

I don't think you get over it , you just learn how to deal with it better. Time has a way of healing. It can make you stronger or weaker, it just depends on how you chose to deal with the situation, does this make any sense?

When I start to think about it I make myself stop. Then I find something to do to take my mind off of it. Keep busy. Go out with friends. A friend always says "party time party time I've got to get you off my mind IT'S PARTY TIME."
