The time is takes to get over someone can and will vary based on a lot of different variables. When going through a break-up it's incredibly important that you don't focus on getting over the break-up and simply focus on yourself and what you're doing. Take the time to rediscover yourself and you'll find that a break-up is a lot simpler to get over.

It depends how long it takes. It can take weeks, months, years, anytime! It doesn't have to happen overnight!

Depends if you are outgoing and surrounded by supporting people you will move on so fast just try to find someone else who is better and can make you forget the other one.

I think there's no time period that's universal. Getting over someone takes as long as your heart needs. I think loving yourself speeds up the process though. The more you love yourself, the more you get over someone else.

Some people get over others in a short time, others never get over them fully but it does become manageable and you feel able to move on eventually

The pivotal point in getting over a past significant other is rebuilding your own confidence and security. To fill the gap that another person left, you must work from within on feeling good about yourself. Recognize the break up as sad, unfortunate even, but realize that it's a tool you can use to strengthen yourself as a person. Getting over someone takes as long as it takes for you to do this.

Every person differs and goes through various stages of a breakup at different rates. The loss of someone you love can invoke feelings of anger for a period of time and then you may find yourself accepting of the breakup at other times periodically. Really depends on you and how you deal with each stage.

If you're still to be asking yourself of when you have gotten over someone; you haven't yet. Although you can take as much time as you need, there's no initial rush to start a new chapter although it can be good for you. It's whenever you can get over someone, you will.

that all depends on how long you are willing to take for yourself to properly move on. Everyone and their emotions are different!

It depends really. I have gotten over exes In as little as a few days in the past, but I didn't have strong feelings for them. When I did have strong feelings I was a mess for weeks and sometimes months lol. I guess it varies by case more than anything else.
