It depends on the person really. Some people are more emotionally attached compared to other people. Everyone has their own amount of time they need to get over a break up. It even varies in the person. You may get over one person in a couple of days, but it may take you a couple of months to get over another person. Both these instances are healthy and ok, as long as you realize that the most important person to you is yourself, and you should look after yourself instead of going after someone that doesn't want you. :)

It depends on how long you've been together for. I know people who have taken at least 3 months to get over the other person. It could even take up to a year.

Its different for everyone, it depends on how much you were in love, and how easy you can let go of someone, it takes time and tears. but you will be better in the end. :)

This is something that is impossible to quantify. Every person is different, so everyone gets over breakups differently and at different speeds, too.

Every person's experience and time of healing is different. I understand that this can be extremely hard, but try to focus on other things in your life right now. Also, pick up many fun activities! Just focus on other things, think positively, try your best not to think about the relationship, and take your time to fully heal. Good luck!

As soon as you realize that you were with a junkie person, who didn't care about you and broke up with you when you needed his/her support ...

some memories are always with us, we need to learn to move them and that's forever or a few moments.

Only YOU can decide how long because no one can force you to feel anything about anyone, good or bad

Getting over a break up is not usually affiliated with a specific period, but depends on different aspects of how strong was that relationship and the ability for this person to overcome this experience. It could be a week or month or year - it is all about how strong we are in controlling our life and overcome past experiences.

The amount of time to nurse a broken heart is different for everyone. Once you've accepted the break up as a reality, it could be a matter of hours, or a matter of years. It all depends on your mindset about the break up, about life, and about yourself.
