yeah thats the problem. any one who jumps from relationship to relationship usually did not assess the problems and hurt they dealt with in the last one and they bring that negativity to the new one. i dont think men are more prone to move on from the bad quickly.
is it sitting around in gloom or is it being responsible and and figuring yourself out? depends on who you ask. i dont think women or men or any better at this.
I wouldn’t say men are “better” I just think men are more capable of suppressing emotion, which can either be or a good OR bad thing depending on the mindstate of the man.
a man who thinks logically can say “Damn. I was really feeling her, but it didn’t work out so she must not be the one for me. Oh well plenty of fish in the sea” and then start the rat race again. He may ACTUALLY be feeling pretty upset about the situation but, as alot of men are physically creatures, we find another attractive woman who has the traits we desire and we’re “back in the game again”
i will say to your point, that a man who is TRULY in love very VERRYYYYY rarely thinks rationally. I’ve seen strong men, some of my best friends, fall apart when a woman they truly loved broke their hearts. I’m talking about brothers going for days not eating, depressed, fukking heartsick. Stalking the exes social media, obsessing over which new nikka who liked her pics is blowing her back out. Sad stuff.
So in conclusion, really the only advantage men have over women when it comes to breakups is the POTENTIAL for emotional suppression. And thats a slippery slope depending on the man
