All too often we hear the “let’s be friends” line. While this may make things easier in the breakup, when brought to question about getting over someone, it makes it harder to stay in contact with the other person either meeting them in person or talking to them over the phone. As long as you are in immediate contact with that person, the pain will remain. If one word of advice could be given, there’s an old saying that goes, “out of sight, out of mind.”

If weeks have gone by and you still aren’t sure how to get over someone, don’t fret on it too much. The world doesn’t have a “normal time” that someone goes through before they are over someone else. Different people will respond in different ways. Be happy if you’re one of the rare few that can get over someone quickly. It’s okay you aren’t, just relax as best you can and give yourself more time.
