get over it
Stop dwelling already
Get over it is a dismissive command telling someone to stop dwelling on something—to move past a disappointment, grievance, or emotional setback.
The phrase implies the listener is making too much of the situation: It happened three years ago—get over it.
Often blunt or unsympathetic, it suggests the speaker has lost patience with continued complaint or self-pity.
