You are very welcome.
You might also want to look at the threads of dreaming715. She was dumped by her fiancé, then got emotionally involved with a man who kind of led her on, but didn’t respond to her feelings – situations I could very well relate to. I am not sure she is really-really happy in her current relationship, but she writes that she loves her current boyfriend very much.
It was a consolation for me to see that the feelings, ideas and thoughts that I had were nothing out of the ordinary and that what I felt might have been felt by another person and vice versa.

Also, you might get an idea of her timeline, though of course each case is different. Even with me, when in the heat of the moment, I think that I am just as attached as I was with X, Y or Z, maybe even more, but as time passes, I can see that no, I was that attached and it took me X time to get over and there I thought that I was attached even more, but it took less time…
My main take on life in general and relationships in particular now is that there are no rules or patterns. Everything should be taken as it comes and viewed and experienced on a case-by-case basis.
All the very best,
