How long did it take for you to get over your ex?

i lived with a g/f for two years over 5 years ago. i since lived with an different g/f for two years as well. im still not over the onw from 5 years ago, but the one from just recently barely crosses my mind.

Never got over it.

Hmmm interesting responses, men are different from women, I'm usually "over" a guy a fair amount of time before the relationship is offically over.

there are girls who are complaining that the guy hasn't been giving them enough sense of security and break of with them for being a playboy,

and then on the opposite end there are men like me who are ever so willing to commit and the girl just wants freedom and being single by choice

we all want what we can't have. I think if you acted like the cavorting playboy, you might not have found yourself in your current position, but thats not who you are.

ok lets put it this way,

I had a chance to be in a relationship since I was like 14 years of age,
I rejected 2 girls not because they are bad looking or just a turn off,
I did not have feelings for them and I know it was gonna be a one way thing..

for some reason even being a kid , I knew I didn't want to hurt their feelings.. for all I know it would have been puppy love anyway. I always put myself into people's shoes to imagine how it would have felt like if the relationship wasn't honest.
just because a girl likes me doesn't mean I should take advantage of it. Guess its the way I was brought up.

in contrast, along the road I have met some girls and really wanted to be with them..
but they never noticed me or were already taken. It got really frustrating.

I've experience alot of one way relationships throughout my 20 years living before I finally met this girl.
And it was eventually a 2 way relationship.
I was so happy and really loved her, treasure her, pampared her..
to a point where I did not realize that I have fell too deeply in love with her.
Never had the interest to look at other girls anymore. we were practically living like husband and wife for about 5 to 6 months. (living in sin)
so i was pretty content with how things were until $h1t happened.
thats what I meant by first relationship and first love.


And now i'm 23. Going to 24 this year

looking at another chapter of my life. At least now that I've experience a 2 way relationship.. looking at the bright side of it.

I had another woman in bed within three days of getting dumped by my ex, so I would say it took three days.

but were you really over her? another women is bed satisfies your lust and so forth..
but not getting over someone u love in 3 days..
unless you admit that u never really loved her and it was a shallow thing.
then I would believe it.

I was being flip. It did take longer to get over her. It was hard hearing certain music, or thinking about her, seeing her, seeing her friends, etc. It was hard for months, then one day it stopped and I didn't care anymore.

Having sex with anonymous women helped a great deal.

dated for 2 years, engaged for 1.5 after that. she broke the engagement a year and half ago. mostly I'm over it, but I have my days. It doesn't help that she's getting married in 5 months.
