How long does it take...

to get used to riding a fixed gear? I have been riding mine 2-3 days a week for a couple of months now but still occasionally forget I am on the fixed bike. This weekend I was riding and came upon someone I knew coming from the other direction and was going to turn around and catch up to him. I forgot and attempted to coast and nearly crashed. How long before I get used to it? I am sure jumping from fixed to non fixed makes it harder but I can't see giving up either bike.
