Getting over a breakup may take weeks, months or years. One theory states that it takes half the time a couple was together to get over the relationship. But it is not a law. I saw friends suffer for years after relationships that lasted only a few months. It is not the length of the relationship; it is the size of the wound. Heart wounding may also re-activate past trauma.
Most of us have not been taught how to heal from heartbreak. Many believe that getting their ex back is the only cure. YouTube is full of “get your ex back” tutorials. Instead of healing, people chase unicorns. The chasing becomes a distraction.
