This varies from person to person. It can take anywhere from a day, to never. It depends on two things. 1. Your attachment to the person and 2. How willing you are to let go. First, if you never cared for the person, it will obviously be rather easy to get over them. But more importantly, 2. If you plan on somehow winning him back, he will still be stuck in your brain. You have to learn to accept the past, and move on to bigger and better things.

You undergo some stages like anger, pain, disappointment but it vanishes when you focus on yourself.

If they cheated on you means that they never cared and hence are not worth you. Give importance to youself, stop recalling past memories and live in the present...check out others and try keeping yourself happy by being in a positive surrounding

It varies for everyone. But one potential way to measure how long it will take to get over a breakup is to half the total time of the relationship. However, this method isn't set in stone, and everyone has different experiences dealing with breakups, and there are lots of different factors to consider for each breakup situation. The important question here isn't about the time it will take to get someone who cheated on you, because there really is no answer to that. But what you should be asking yourself is: "what am I going to do next?" or "how can I help myself feel better right now?" Try to focus less on getting over them, and more on what you need.

I think it vary. It really depends on how much you're close to that person,and how much they're important to you.and if they're sorry about what they've done or not

It depends on the rate at which you can remove them away from you, both mentally and physically however, everyone recovers at their own rate of preference. It depends how long this event had been happening for, as the longer the duration of this event happening, the more it will hurt. However, the best things to do to get over them is to distract yourself, this has happened to me before in the past dating a girl for 3 years, she cheated and did a lot of sexual things behind my back, anyway focusing on your well being, when i hanged out with my friends i was very easily distracted however she would come back into my thoughts every now and then. But the more you go out or distract yourself the quicker you forget. Best thing to do, in order to speed up the process of moving on, remove any items they had bought for you to keep, unless you really want to keep them, and if so put them out of sight :)

It can be quick or long depending on how much you care about them and their reason for doing it. It is also not your fault so don't blame yourself but if you can have a positive attitude you'll get over it soon

It takes a while, everyone's different. As long as you keep your mind occupied with people who love you and you love, like your friends, your pets, your family. Get a new hobby, go to the gym, do some yoga. Anything helps!

The pain may never go away depending on the person, all we need to do is learn to see the beauty in the scar and learn how to accept it as a part of who we are as a whole.

It varies for the person and situation. Honestly, if you got cheated on, don't come back to that person, You are better than that, you are smart, resilient, and extraordinary and you know you have better worth than being used and not loved soul by and for you.
