Do men suffer more than women after a breakup?
We have seen hundreds of movies, series, stories and books that claim that women are the ones who suffer the most and it takes time to recover after a breakup. However, in the real world, psychologists claimed that after a breakup it is men who take the worst moments. And they have proposed several reasons that you would be interested in knowing:
- They are less communicative than women: Something that helps greatly is relief through dialogue with either friends or family. To the extent that women love to talk and talk to their best friends to cry and drain the pain, men prefer to keep quiet and suffer alone in their rooms.
- They do not accept that they leave them for themselves: This means that a man accepts more quickly that women leave them for someone else, than that they leave them because they simply do not want them.
- Men are more comfortable having a partner than women: A man will always need a woman to be with, and studies claim that his health improves whenever they are matched.
Who overcomes a breakup faster, men or women?
Therefore, after a breakup, most men will be left hoping that their girl will return to their arms soon. And if they notice that it has already overcome it, they plunge into a sea of despair. Many act badly, and others much more maturely.
For a woman to quickly surpass him and no longer seek them out is a terrible blow to his ego. So, it will take them a long time to recover, and to be the same as before.
