Time. Each heart is different and the damage done to them.

(Imo) I think you never fully move on from a first love. Like a little piece of them will always have a place in your heart, no matter how dark that spot is. I believe that although a small love is there, you learn to live with that love as just a memory. It's bittersweet, but you understand that sometimes love isn't meant to be kept. I guess it varies between people- For some their first love was a horrible example, and for others it was a beautiful beginning to the journey of love. I would assume, depending on which one you experienced, depends how fast you 'moved on'.

Sometimes longer..

As long as it takes you to heal and not drag any of that toxic energy into your next relationship. People move on to quickly and then drag issues they had in there last to the new one which isn’t healthy.

My first love was lola bunny from space jam. I don't think you recover from that one, folks.

It greatly varies from person to person. But it definitely takes longer than the ones that follow.

For most, it's the moment you realize there are others who are better and you can live without them

I feel that it totally depends on the connection that was shared. Who are any of us to judge the grieving process of losing love or first love. I still love all the people that I was with just in a different way

Hmmm maybe 3 weeks ? Idk I don't really do love . But when people leave theres no point crying about it their not gonna come back cause you cry and need a hug . Might as well go to lunch buy new clothes and go do better for yourself .

Why hop into another relationship right away? It takes time to reflect your previous one, think what was good and bad, make conclusions, and then, when you are ready, you'll meet the one you match with. "curing" past love with a new relationship is a very tricky strategy imho

Abbie

I don't think anyone truly moves on from their first love. I think it just becomes a suppressed feeling because you know it didn't work out for a reason, so you remove all hope that it would work out, and you move on to the next person even though you still love another. There's only been two people I think I truly loved and I will never "get over" them because they were such important parts of my life.

It may take years to recover :( If it is you, good luck:(

Julian Rodriguez

There is no defined time for a feeling, it depends on how much self-love you have, since getting over it is more related to our emotional voids, the ones that we discharge onto the other person.

Once you figure that out let me know

Between right after to never, depending on how much you open yourself to new people, new places, new things. If you close yourself you will lose the ability to dream of anything but the past. Have hope, your best arc has yet to come 😉.

If it's true love, it will always be there. It doesn't have to be a negative part of your life though. It depends on your attitude.

David

Cancer

Time doesn't matter, it's a mind set so it depends on the mind

Leo

ENFJ

Libra

Depends on who left. Being the one to leave you bounce back fast. Being left stings for a long time. Both cases make you see love differently. Some give up on it and be "independent", others take the other road and decide I want everyone.

Keila

INFJ

Libra

Some hours for me and a lot of crying and another. I guess it was not that important at that age. The last one it’s been the most difficult to move on. 😵‍💫

Tiago

ENTP

Pisces

It depends, your state of mind, your maturity level, situation. I'd say, to me at least, it was around a month? And don't get me wrong, we became good friends, just followed different paths, it's not like I stopped loving her out of the blue or vice-versa, I just had to let go and she did too. 😄

Kendra

Depends. If they said something bad or were toxic, i get over it. If they were nice and are still nice, i still haven't fully moved on

You never really do. It forever marks you and affects the way you see every subsequent love afterward.

Everyone is Different n there's a lot of things to consider like how long You where together with someone and close You were to that person but like they say only time can tell plus You may wide up with a lot of Emotional scars and bitterness 🥺😢😰💔💔

Steve

INTJ

It took me over 2-3 years, and that was helped by having met my ex-wife. When me and her started dating, it helped take my mind off of my 'first love.' Mostly, it takes time, good company (family and friends), and prayer. Keep your mind occupied with other things. Don't try to run from your feelings and period of grief, but don't dwell on your depression and sad thoughts of the past.
