I truly, truly feel like this woman has broken me. And I don’t think she gives a damn either, which hurts the most

It's different for everyone, I think what you do in that time is more important than the time itself. I didn't move on from mine until I released my unspoken feelings many years later, it's trapped emotions, things you want to say, they stay repressed in the body until you let them leave.

I could move on after that, I gave them the same opportunity. You'll always remember them, the good and the bad, but it won't hurt with time.
