Do women handle breakups better than men? * 2
    #23435759 - 07/12/16 06:46 PM (7 years, 6 months ago)

Anecdotally, I have found this to be often spoken of. Although 80% of my friend group are male, so I don't exactly have an unbiased source of info on the matter.

What are your thoughts on this?


--------------------
Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not.

I think its entirely subjective. Depends on the personality of the person and the significance of the relationship. Also, who initiates the breakup

I agree, this is of course always the case with humans. I'm just interested to know if there is a perceived generalisation one way or the other...

I find it amazing how a woman can go from ''loving you with all my heart'' to ''I don't know you'' in less than 24hours

I find it very frustrating how women, in general, have this advantage to get over a guy so quickly while the guy spends months just wondering what the fuck happened. Its also frustrating on how easy it is for them to find someone else while men have to put in a lot of effort just to get a measly date

or maybe I was just in relationships with really cold hearted bitches :lol:

But yes, that's my opinion. I think women find it very easy to get over someone and I hate it about them

I don't think this is true. I think both party members, if they have some good experience, will assume that they will get hurt. I once told that to a girl, she wanted to date me, as in be in a relationship with me and I just responded with ''Oh, you want to rip my heart out as well? That's nice'' and I still accepted lol

Women are definitely wired to handle it better, it's really a survival mechanism that goes way back to when women were truly depended on males for their food, shelter, and protection. Also, women have a much shorter sexual reproduction life than men, so it only makes sense for them to move on and find another mate in a quicker fashion.

I have seen men completely destroyed over breakups and divorces, women seem to be less emotionally invested once that separation takes place.

I watched a video about this very subject awhile back, I would try to find it if it were even remotely reputable, but basically their study showed that women take breakups harder but are more likely to make a full recovery, i.e. get over it completely. I'd personally argue its because women are encouraged to develop healthy emotions but men generally aren't, not anything to do with either sex, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong some day.

Also that whole "I don't know you now" bullshit is all just a ruse, in this extremely male-centric forum you're probably going to get a lot of people agreeing with you because nobody has been a fly on the wall of their ex's place. My father got dumped by his fiance when he was very young and he thought she was just a cold bitch who didn't care about him anymore. He found out later the emotional trauma of it turned her to promiscuity (this is from her mouth not just rumor). Hell, my ex never saw a single emotion from me at all, unless someone told her, she probably has no idea how much I cried over her. The last she saw of me I seemed moderately annoyed.

She was obnoxiously perceptive so she probably knows exactly how I felt about it, but I have zero fucking idea how she felt, other than guilty (those ex-religious types are always fucking guilty). I would not presume she didn't give a single fuck as much as it seemed that way to me

When I dumped one of my ex's, I laughed, she cried.

The other one's seemed more like mutual headfucks, breaking up 20x, whatever.

Really depends on the person and the scenario.

I'veve  really had any problem handling breakups. Probably cause most of the time I'm the one breaking up. But even in the few times where I was broken up with, I just accepted the fact on the spot and move on immediately.

I'm not sure this is a gendered thing. I think the difference would come down to the rebound/turnaround time, it's easier for women to find somebody else.

But overall I think that the difficulty of a breakup has more to do with the nature of the relationship and the individuals and how the relationship actually ended, not so much with the sex/gender of the people breaking up. If you saw yourself being with somebody for a long time or indefinitely, only to have the relationship cut short, it tends to be difficult regardless to the quality/availability of rebounds or other long-term prospects. This is true for both males and females. If anything I've seen more of women struggling with breakups than men, but also I have more close friendships with women than with men. Few people have anything close to a truly 50:50 mix of close friends who are male and female, so it would be difficult for anybody to gauge the difference.

Speaking as somebody who's seen it from both sides: THE LEGENDS ARE TRUE.

It still doesn't help much with a really difficult breakup, though. I've been through one myself recently. Every time I rebound it just reminds me everything that made her special, that I won't find in anybody else.

It's going to be a while before I can really move on. In the meantime I'm surfing pervy couples and taking advantage of my unicorn status to be a giant pillow princess. It's easier that way because I don't have to think about long-term stuff or make comparisons to what I've lost. Plus, pervy couples are so excited just to be hooking up with a person of my exotic body type that all the attention is for me-- both heads, all four hands, a cunt and a cock... and I don't have to do shit.

Not really unique, just rare. I'm a conventionally attractive chick with a big dick that works. Adventurous couples like to spice things up with me because I've got something for everyone.

Normally I wouldn't want to be fetishized or put on a pedestal that way, but in the wake of a breakup, it's nice just to feel wanted. My heart is still hurting and I'm pretty sure time is the only cure for that, but in terms of sex alone, this fills the void and then some :smirk:

I haven't had enough breakups personally to be able to generalize on my experiences. I don't remember being aware of any evidence suggesting one or the other. I'd therefore agree with Johnny, it is simply dependant on the individuals involved and the circumstances of the breakup.

I think its well established now that you are probably autistic, mild Aspergers most likely. I think because you can't be in someone else's brain its impossible to tell but dude you just don't feel things the way most people do. Enjoy it, getting all hung up on shit because your emotions are hammering away at your mind all day every day its totally not worth the good stuff.

On the other hand, not really sure if life would be worth living without emotions. :strokebeard:

I'm always laughing on the inside although I'm utterly devastated. Recently broken-up feels like walking around with an open wound.
