元カノと別れてから1年くらい引きずってたって英語でなんて言うの？

"To get over someone" is to be able to forget them and move on, typically after a romantic relationship. "To break up" is to end a relationship, generally of the romantic or sexual type. I hope that this helps :)

"It took me about" means that something will have taken you roughly that length of time and implies you do not know the exact amount of time but it was 'around' a year. By using 'my last' we are saying that we may be looking for a new girlfriend and that the process of getting over her is finally finished and you can move on.

To split up with someone means that the relationship between two people comes to an end. It may either be a mutually agreed split, or, more usually, one party to the relationship chooses to break away from the other. "John split up with Mary because she cheated on him."

When you want to explain that it took over a year to get over your ex-girlfriend, then you may explain this in the following way: -I couldn't get over my ex-girlfriend for about a year -After I broke up with my girlfriend, I couldn't get over her for about a year

When talking about no longer being with your boyfriend/girlriend this is also called 'breaking' or 'splitting' up To get over means to go back to normal after something happens to you

"It took me a whole year to get over my ex." This example sentence describes how long the heartache lasted and "ex" is a common way to refer to a previous girlfriend or boyfriend. "I needed a year to get over my ex-girlfriend" is another straightforward and clear way to describe the above and in a similar amount of words. "Once we broke up, I thought I'd never get over her. It was about a year later that I eventually did" is a much longer and perhaps more descriptive way to explain the situation. You might find this type of explanation in a novel, journal or similar, where more emotion is used to describe the story.

The first part of the sentence 'It took me about a year' is stating the length of time it took me to get over my girlfriend. The word took shows that I am talking about the past as it is in the simple past tense. The word about has the same meaning as approximately. It states an approximate length of time. 'To get over' is a phrasal verb used in the past tense in this instance and means to start to feel happy and recover from feeling upset after in this case about a year. 'After I split up with her shows us that he was the person to end the relationship. Using the phrasal verb 'split up' meaning that he and his girlfriend separated and ended their relationship.
