There can be a lot of reasons for getting over people easily.
Some reasons could be:
-Some people have the have the ability to cope with difficult situations easily. It is because of their personal experiences in the past or their upbringing. They handle any situation very easily. When they are supposed to get over people, they let them go without getting stuck in the situation.
-Some people are like "no strings attached". It is not like they do not have feelings or emotions but they are capable of staying with people without getting attached to them. Attachment is indeed a very painful approach to life and situations.
-There's a quote which can be one reason why someone can get over people easily.
"When the pain of staying put is greater than our fear of the unknown, we find our wings".
I don't know what are your reasons to get ober people easily but it is okay. Staying somewhere where you don't want to be may not be pleasant for you or the person you are with. I feel that getting over people easily is somewhat a good aspect. 💓

In my teens we moved around a lot, I changed schools once a year for 4 years. I observed people and made friends each time and found that relationships would rarely persist throughout the years. This used to sadden me deeply before I understood the valuable lesson in these experiences. People come and go in our lives and often despite our best efforts to stay connected, move in a different direction. There's incredible freedom, for everyone involved, in enjoying people while they're around without making them feel obligated to stay. The ability to let people go has actually made the right people stay and kept unhealthy relationships at bay

Generally I know that for me what is important is my life and my goals and dreams. I don't look for that in another person thus if for some reason someone feels like we no longer fit that is ok because I have to keep doing me. I am not saying that I never missed or didn't care about a lost relationship. Yet if someone is on a separate path no amount of force can bring it back.
Life is too short to keep worrying about what was there is always so much to come. I am positive that tomorrow will be a better day if I keep trying.

Thank you for reaching out! You might want to ask yourself how you feel about getting over people easily. Do you feel good they are out of your life? Do you feel bad they are out of your life? Do you feel a sense of loneliness; a feeling of being incomplete without them? Getting over people has different meanings depending on the situation and circumstance. Getting over someone has a tendency to be applied to intimate relationships, but it could also refer to other situations. An example of another situation would be an acquaintance that you have been hoping to make friends with which seems to be very challenging. Whatever the scenario is, in this particular question you may re-phrase by saying "Why do I not feel like putting any further effort into a relationship with this person?" Thinking of the reasons that you do not want to put any further effort into a relationship or transaction will allow you to determine what steps you have taken to ascertain your position. Perhaps you will notice that you were not too interested in pursuing whatever person you thought you were interested in. Perhaps you feel that you exhausted all reasonable or feasible options in pursuing your interest with another person. Perhaps you find that you prefer not to spend as much time with particular people. Perhaps you feel meeting more people to gain many different experiences is for you! It may be helpful to write notes on a journal or diary about your thoughts in order to gather your ideas and have a better understanding to answer your own question. You know you best. You are welcome to reach out to one of our listeners or online therapists for further support.

That's not abnormal. People are born with different characteristics. That means, some people are really struggeling with overcoming things and other do not. That doesn't mean you're a sociopath or something, it's just a part of you. Sometimes people with problems overcoming also had a rough childhood where they were left alone, or they just were born like that.
Don't worry about it. That's completely acceptable and okay. Maybe you can just enjoy your ability of not feeling grieve as intense as others. It doesn't make you a bad person or mentally ill.
It's some kind of gift, too. You can overcome relationships quick and find new ones without old grieve or triggers. Maybe it's not a flaw, but a skill. Maybe there are even people who wish they could be you.
So just be happy and okay with it. There's nothing wrong about it and it's just a part of your personality, nothing more. Have a nice day!

Some of the reasons can be that- You know what is good for yourself and prioritize your mental health over longing for someone who probably won't come back. You also may have already sensed their separation from you a long time ago and have prepared yourself for the parting so it doesn't surprise or take a toll on your mental health too much when it finally happens.

I think because that person you got over so easily didn't put such a good mark on you even if you did share amazing things. That special connection between both of you didn't last and maybe you didn't realize it was there. You don't have to feel sad about it because you haven't met your person yet :) I'm sure when you do, you will feel extraordinary!

Some people just have the natural ability to get over people easily. I never had that power to but a lot of my friends did. It might not have hit you so hard. You might not have the emotional connection you thought. There could be a lot of reasons.
