Very insightful of you, true somethings in life trigger those memories for me. I think everyone experiences that from time to time. The question was open ended for anyone who reads it. Interesting how different people will have varying answers, because of the definition they place on the element of "getting over" some one..
I can tell you that YOU NEVER get over someone completely. There is always a part of that person who stays with you. When you think of a song, when you think of a joke you both shared. A story that the person told you. They have a place in your heart that no one else can fill, and why would you want to fill it with someone else. Numbness hopefully lasts for a little while. can't sleep, can't eat, can't concentrate on anything, yeah it's not a good feeling..
