It doesn't take me long. Once we are down to only associating with one another on Facebook, I cut the ties. There is a time for everything, and everything's time must end eventually.

Missing and letting go of someone, in my experience, comes in waves and portions over a prolonged period of time. You miss different aspects of that person at different times and you process it. I remember reading somewhere that the average amount of time to "get over" a breakup or loss is around a year and a half, and personally for me that was about right. That's how long it took for me to be totally completely alright with it.
I think however, one can reach a level of happiness and contentness after a period of months after whatever incident happened, if you work at it [and it can be worked at]. it's not the same as that year and a half mark but it's helpful.
