    I don't think you ever fully get over someone you loose that was close to you.. You just learn to live with what happened :(

    a lifetime. I don't think you can move on. Try to celebrate life and death in the same vein but preserve their memory for times of quiet reflection.

    This is different for everyone. Some take months, others take years.

    Some people you never get over their death. It is okay to love someone that much.

    "I don't love her. And I feel a great weight shall be lifted. I shall ascend on my ladder to god with the space cunt in hand. Jesus, please look the other way for now until my evolution. The time when I shall blacken the sky and the streets will run with the blood of those I consume. Perilous times for all, but I will become this time itself. I travel the path of white light through the mouth of infinity"

    Can't vote on this one for everyone is so different with moving on. I have found it takes longer for most women to get over it then men (usually)
