Perhaps because you havent bonded with them enough, so they dont mean enough to you. Perhaps you are afraid to let people know you in your depth, to let them too close to you. Having a "wall" between you and others is part of a coping mechanism and is the result of getting very hurt in a relationship in the past, so it functions as an adaptive strategy to not get hurt in the future. It can be helpful in protecting yourself, but altough you won't experience much pain, you won't experience much joy either. So, there are to sides to every coin. To be vulnerable means to be open to love, and being vulnerable is therefore a sign of great strength.

You need to understand and accept the facts that if people are meant to be in your life, they will stay in your life or find a way back into your life somehow. Nothing is greater than the forces of the universe. You meet everyone in your life for a reason. If they leave from your life, take that as a lesson. Think "what did I learn from them" use that lesson to become stronger and then move on to becoming a better person. If they stay in your life, cherish them. Be patient, and be willing to move on.

It may be that you simply process experiences more rapidly than most people, or it may be that your capacity for emotion is limited. It may be that you are fooling yourself when you believe you are “over” something. ... Everyone processes their emotions in a different way, maybe you just process them faster.Yes. It is normal to move on quickly for the one who really wanted that break-up, if it is not your first break up, you move on in some time since you have understood that you are worth loving in the very first place. No, particularly if you have nothing else to do and you do not love yourself.

Hi there! I'm so happy you asked about this topic~ These are just based on my own thoughts and ideas and I believe this gets to do with personalities. Some people that are more positive can get over people easily since they focus on the bright side and refuse to drown in the past. Of course it doesn't apply to everyone but it can be one possibility.

I would answer this with another question. Do you think that 'getting over people so easily' is necessarily a bad thing? Some people have the opposite problem where getting over people is extremely taxing on them. Look at this from a more positive perspective. You can move on from relationships that no longer service you. You can walk away knowing that you will be ok without them. That shows how strong willed you are. It shows that you independent. It also shows that you understand the people in life are sometimes fluid, coming in and out of our lives for different reasons. Don't think too hard about this quality about yourself.

You may need to understand why you felt the way you did in the first place. Getting over people can be easy for some. Being able to deal with why is something else. It could be the reason is you don't want to feel the pain of holding on. Some people move on in order to protect themselves from further feelings of hurt. It could also be that you understand that the person is not right for your life and moving on is what is best for you. Sometimes letting go is all we can do to protect ourselves and the other person.

I get over people so easily because I know that there are diffrent and good people I haven't met outside of my circle. The people I know so far may had finished their time in my life and I can let them go, so, I can invite and welcome new people in my life, who will be better and more helpfull for me this time. People can come and go. We all have issues with people and we all have problems with life and we can hurt each other, sometimes it is time for us to leave that person and invite others.

If you are getting over people easily it usually means that you were not truly in love with that person. You may have not been truly very serious. It may have felt like the most serious relationship you have ever been in, but in reality it is rather basic. You will find someone who you will be more serious with. It may be that you simply process experiences more rapidly than most people, or it may be that your capacity for emotion is limited. It may be that you are fooling yourself when you believe you are “over” something. ... Everyone processes their emotions in a different way, maybe you just process them faster.

Weather it’s by your own volition, or a bad roll of the dice, when someone leaves your life often, it can hurt. Even if they harmed you, sometimes losing that connection feels like an open wound, your memories sparking pain again and again. However, there are some people, my self included who seem to not react at all, who, once they shut the door, they don’t bother to look back. Sometimes, instead of reminiscing, I block out the memories, try to live in as though they never existed. Even if they were close, i convince myself that I never cared about them at all- As if even after all the time we spent together that they meant nothing to me. Because, in my mind, feeling nothing is a million times better than feeling something, because that means i was weak. It means I let someone in, and because of my carelessness, I got hurt. By avoiding the feeling part all together, I can pretend i’m strong, and that i’m not hurt. However, this facade of strength can’t last forever. One day, there’s nothing, the next it’s like all the memories come in at once. Or, more often, if I see them in person again, they all come back. I try to remain cold and distant, but living like that isn’t sustainable. By learning to feel my feelings, I may not be getting over people as “quickly” but I am able to live my life without this burden i’ve placed on myself.

. It could be that your feelings were not as deep as you thought they were. It could be that you are realistic and allow yourself to let go completely when there is no reason to hang on. Or, it could be that you are sublimating your feelings and when you finally do have them they will overwhelm you. Only you, or perhaps you and a counselor, can determine what is the case for you. .
