How long do breakups last?
When looking at the timeline of breakups, lots of sites refer to a “study” that's actually a poll conducted by a market research company on behalf of Yelp. The results of the poll suggest it takes an average of about 3.5 months to heal, while recovering after divorce might take closer to 1.5 years, if not longer. How long do breakups last before getting back together? We conducted a study on people who get their ex back and keep them and we found that most people who get their ex back and stay with their ex, took at least one month to get back together.
