Many of us believed that a Broken Heart can cause such an intense reaction that you may feel your life has been completely striped of meaning. Jobs, hobbies and friends may no longer hold any joy.In fact some of us experienced physical pain such as heart attack(Huh?) because of so much depression,many of us don't like to eat there meals and experienced terrible insomnia.
There's a saying that " time heals all wounds". How long should we wait for that time to heal those wounds? and some said that the wounded heart would heals merely the same as you've been together. How true this notion is?

I'm a true believer of this saying. You have to let yourself heal and it takes time. It may take days, weeks, months or even years for a broken heart to heal. And we have different ways of coping and getting over the pain.
I got busy with work when my boyfriend and I broke up. It took me about 6 months to get over the pain. My friends at work began setting up dates for me. And I went out. Had fun.
My advice: take time to heal. Do not rush thighs. Let things come naturally. And who knows? The very reason of your broken heart may be the cure itself.

for me i think we need to wait the time to heal a broken heart,we should not force our heart to heal quickly,though its prolong still that it will heal,our heart can not move on very fast,and it needs time to realize why it happen to us and learn from it.

Well..it takes time, I agree with those who say that. My terrible broke-up was in 2007, I can get over it however sometimes it`s hard for me to fall in love again. I don`t want to rush things..I get frustrated as i am 35 but still single, it`s a complete disaster for me. I am okay, not traumatic maybe i should wait for the right time

There is no time limit you should wait. You will know if you are ready again to love someone. Starting a relationship with someone you don't love, you can't give anything because your heart is still with someone else I call abusing that person for your own reason (not to be left alone).
Sometimes people stick into their broken heart feelings, then we need a new person to show us that life is still great and shining and we find out through that person we are able to love again. I think every situation is different, but if it works that way why wait and not give it a chance? Life should be lived not wasted by grieving and living in the past and feel pity for yourself and take all your chances away for no reason.

there is no definition of love...so there is no time span for broken hearts...some heal immediately...some takes years....it depends on the person ...on the family members...on social circle of the person...it differs for all...

Wow, you have described being a brokenhearted person's situation to its fullness, and as i know it. I believe it is rather impossible not to feel your life meaningless if you have been hurt or was brokenhearted. You just have to know that somehow it will get better, and that promise over time is true to its word. I truly believe that time does heal all wounds. It makes its pain less for those who have suffered, it makes those who experience hardships stronger, and wiser. It is impossible for one person to be better all in one go, just by learning from a hurtful experience but it has really got to go through a stage where one learns to be patient, and learns to let go over time.
For me, there is no single timeframe for a wound to heal, it is quite different from cell regeneration. hehe it is different for everyone, because we simply have different levels of experiences and we have different capacity to love, to accept, and to not accept. It is just all depending on ourselves and how we try to cope.

I also believe in this saying.. But I have also heard of an advise that I can say is true.. You will never be able to move forward if you will not do something as well.. It does take time to heal but it also needs remedy.. If you wish to heal soon enough, then learn to venture into new things that will keep you busy and avoid feeling depressed..

in my opinion I think time will heal a broken heart if only we have an effort to heal our own feeling but if we do nothing and still holding on to the pain so we wont move on. How long should we wait until the wound will be healed, i dont have idea about it, it is depend on us how strong we want to move on. the only one who can heal our pain is not time but ourself, so let's do something to forget the pain, try to find a new hobby or activity. just like me, the more I participate on mylot the more i enjoy this life and forgot what I felt about love. here we can share and learn alot from people advices and suggestions. do not listen to sad song because it will make us feeling blue, but try to listen to a fun song. do not just relly on the words that "time will heal me" but make a change on ourself. I believe everything happen for a reason, broken heart doesnt always have bad side or negative impact to our life. if we can learn from it, then we can take a lesson from the broken heart such as to be more mature in life, to be so much wiser and take it as part of life's experience.
always take a look at the bright side, we learn from our mistake dont we? have faith that we can heal our wound is better than depending on time will heal the pain.

Time will heal a broken heart. In the initial stages it feels like a deep wound on your heart which causes loss of appetite, sleepless night, depression and certainly bouts of crying. As days slowly pass by, the wound will heal and the pain will gradually be diminished. After a while, the wound will be gone but remember there will be scars that will remain to remind you of the pain. It is really difficult getting over a heartbreak but the easiest way would be to find another love.

Yes I do believe that time can heal the wound but for how long? that depends on the person. I think the first thing that a brokenhearted soul should do is letting go. Let go of the pain, the hurts , the sad memories. That alone take times depending on how deep the hurt was or the willingness of the person to forgive. After that the acceptance that it is finally over and no matter what you do , you will no longer be together. If you are able to do that then you have a chance in a recovery with just happy memories remaining. Time can only dampen the emotion if you do not know how to forgive and accept things. That is why others will still feel the pain after all the years that pass because they have not fully forgiven the person or their self for failure in the relationship. Sure, it is never easy but you have to. To move on, and make a new beginning.

You know what, the saying "time heals all wounds", does hold true, whoever you are or wherever you are. I am also a true believer in this saying.
Life has so much to offer, you need to give it the opportunity. When the opportunity does arrive, make sure you take it by the horns. It will always be better than what you have been through, if you want it to be. Yes, you need to give it the respect & time it deserves. I am sure it will all work out better...

Everyone is different and there heart heels at different paces. This is not to be rushed. But sometimes the heart can be healed if someone as special if not more special comes along. Even though at this time of heart break it feels like no one could ever replace him/her but have an open mind because there is many people out there looking for love.
