How much time?
How much time does it usually take to get over a broken heart? Its been one and half months, two other guy's kisses later, and I still can't get my cheating ex out of my mind. Its getting mentally exhausting to trick myself not to think about him.

I think most of us have been there, trying to get over an ex is never easy -- but in time you'll move on and not even think about this guy hardly. As far as how much time, I can't really determine that because everyone is different. I think the main thing is finding a way to cope with it, you're always going to have some kind of feelings for him I'm sure, but you can't let them control your life. Or you'll never move on.
This may help you, I hope it does. =)

ohhh lord. i am/was in the same situation, so ur not alone. it has taken me 7 months and i am still not completley over it. all i can say is get a new boyfriend, because i can tell you that is defiantly the mistake i made (not getting a boyfriend when i could have.) It sucks when a guy cheats on you, its possibly the worst feeling ever, it takes time to heal. So one month is nothing girl just stay strong and try not to see him as much as possible. hope i was a little help ! :) goood luckk baby

I seem to like the general rule that it takes half the time you went it out with them. That has held pretty much true in my life.
You can't expect total apathy though. Even a decade later you will probably *feel* something towards someone you once loved. Don't try to fight that. Even when you are happily with someone else, your mind might wander back to an ex.
Just don't give it too much power over you. Accept it and ignore it, don't obsess. If you want to go home and cry about it, go ahead. As long as you aren't crying about it on a regular basis, you're doing fine.
However much time it is 'supposed' to take, you clearly aren't there quite yet. Don't beat yourself up over it. Just deal.

Everyone moves at their own pace. Broken hearts don't mend in a day..& it's always hard when someone you love(d) is no longer in your life. Can't put a time frame on it, but stay positive. Think about all the good things you still have in your life, and where you're going. It'll get better.

Well if you wanna get technical, "they" say that it takes about half the time you were with someone to get over them. You can't necessarily just mask over your feelings for your ex with other meaningless flings, as it seems this guy meant a lot to you. Give yourself time to grieve, but just try and focus as much energy as possible into a hobby or spending time with your friends. If he pops up in your mind, try and tell yourself "NO" and change the subject in your brain as quickly as possible. Remind yourself that someone low enough to cheat on you isnt worth your thoughts or affection. These things will help, but true healing will only come with time.

The amount of time varies for everyone. Some people are over it within weeks, whereas it takes months for others. It's horrible, I know. but eventually, you WILL get over it, I promise. Perhaps you weren't ready to move on and get with other people.
