Tough Guys Hurt Bad After Breakups

Tough Guys Hurt Bad After Breakups Cover
Why do men suffer more after breakups?

A new poll conducted by Matchmaker.com, Amor.com and Date.com found that 85% of men get depressed and upset after a breakup and don't date for a long time thereafter. Only 8% of women felt the same way.

I could've told you that. For some reason, men are once bitten, twice shy, while women pick themselves up, dust themselves on, and get on with it.

Of course, online daters don't represent all daters in general; but men who gravitate towards online dating sites usually do so because they are more rejection sensitive than ever and their egos are frail after being dumped.

Dr. Keith Ablow says that men and women suffer equally when it comes to feeling alone, but women vent their frustrations and move on whilst men bottle up their emotions and harbor resentment and hurt.

This in no way suggests that women want men to start crying and talking about their feelings; what it might suggest is that perhaps men need to suck it up and move on. Have your moment, perhaps even start an anonymous blog to vent your feelings, but for Pete's sake, get on with it.
