How long after breaking up did you not care if your ex was with someone else?

I really want to get to this stage but I'm not there yet. As far as I know he's not, but I know I'd still be upset if I heard he was with someone else. Also, any tips for getting him out of your head?

5 years divorced and I still not over him being with someone else. After we broke up his decision not mine, he was already with someone else 6 weeks later, lasted 2 years, then 1 month after he broke up with her, he was with someone else last 4 months and then the current one straight after vreakng up. I always hoped he will come back , that it was just a mid life crisis but I should really get over that as it is never going to happen but unfortunately I can't. We were 25 years together, we have 3 kids, I left my home country to be with him and he just dumped me like an old sock. He doesn't live with the current one she lives 6 hours drive away, in fact all of them were far away, i just can't move on with my life and don't family support and not many friends. I am the worst case scenario, kind of pathetic

Straight away. But I was done quite a while before we were officially over. He kept promising to change. I went numb and finally walked away.

He has had a few girlfriends. Honestly, doesn’t bother me in the slightest. He moved in with one, within weeks of us selling the house. We were married 15 years.

I don’t think it’s something you can force. It’s dependent on the situation, you, what contact you have etc. it just takes time, sometimes.

We were over long before he called time. I dated first
