It takes as long as it takes. All I’d suggest is, give yourself time or you’ll carry that hurt with you to the next person.

Don't ever call your own feelings stupid.. there's no time limit on miraculously feeling okay, and everyone is different. It's always going to hurt when you think back on it, but the pain gets less intense as time goes by. Don't rush yourself into being alright and make sure you're treating yourself like the royalty you are 🫶

I guess it depends on how long you were together and how close were you. But, even then there is no set time limit for this. Keep yourself busy, distracted and try to process it. I wish you all the best.

I know it's different for girls compared to us guys, I would recommend you to just talk it out with at least someone. Even if they can't advise you or help you out in any way just talking it out will make you face what you're going through and to move on.

It's trial and error. Everyone is different. And every relationship/breakup is different.

The short answer is no, let things take their course and you'll know when you're ready. I make sure I take enough time to ensure I'm not taking any residual baggage into my next one. Some people believe that you get over someone by getting under someone...

It depends on the person. Could be days, weeks, months, and even years. Depending on how deep and involved the relationship was the healing process can be prolonged as long as you work on yourself and not dwindle on the past.

You heal by facing your emotions and accepting the loss.

Distracting yourself is just that - a nice distraction, but avoiding a problem never solves a problem.
How long one is upset by something entirely depends on themself. You have power over your emotions, not the other way around.

It's a long journey... For me it's just one month and a few days and sometimes it's like living inside a nightmare but there are days where I can feel as I can finally breathe without him. Sometimes you feel you fall again and you miss this person, but you have to repeat yourself you can do it. Remember that happy person you were before meeting this person, it can be a reminder. 
I'm here if you need someone to talk with. Sometimes it's better to release everything.

Took me about 2 years. It takes as long as it takes and is different for everyone, every time.
