I think this article is plainly unrealistic as all people are different and some people may never get over someone. However, in my opinion, the point isn’t to ‘get over someone’ or to think badly about them just because you’ve broken up, but is to move on with other interesting, meaningful and fun things to do with your time. The more interesting things you find and the more creative and open you are, the more you enjoy life and your brain is stimulated to focus elsewhere — and it wants to. Eventually, as you become more immersed in other interesting things and people, you tend to think less about a previous love - and a lot of raw feelings finally run out of steam anyway.
