Women.. The pretty girls move on during the relationship while already having a "back up roster".
That's all depends on the circumstances and the individual
If the relationship had substance to it, it's easier for women to move on because they wear their emotions on their sleave and not lose face. However in flings/hookups guys rarely get attached.
How does getting more attached make you move on more quickly? That's backwards.
@samhradh_leannan because dating is harder for men than for women. It's rare for us to find a decent woman and we have to spend a lot of effort, time, courage and money in the early stages.
If we lose something of substance it can be slim Pickens for a long time (that's what happened to me). But you don't see guys going on social media and complaining about their dating problems or taking openly about them.
As for hookups, guys can have sex with no emotional involvement. Much easier for us to move on from short term issues.
From what I've seen men tend to be more invested in the relationship so it's harder to move on
Women. This has been studied. Repeatedly.
Why do humans do anything?
Usually men do, I'm always like wow how'd he move on so fast!
The one who is more emotionally stable and less dependant on the other for validation
... plus circumstances can play a huge part... For instance: if a girl admitted to cheating on me, I'd be over her before she drew her next breath
Hehe, women saying "men" and men saying "women"
I don't know which of them moves on quick, but men deal with breakups better than women.
That's what they tend to think since they are supposed to be strong and they shouldn't show emotions because emotions are for the weak like women. That's why most men try ti internalize and internalizing takes longer than letting it out like women do talk and let out with their other gfs. So women are handling better and moving on faster
That may be true, but I think men have better stress management systems built into them
That's also not true. That's what you think under the name of being strong but that's basically why men die alone.
Everybody dies alone
i wanted to say earlier. i dont know why i wrote alone. LOL
I think everyone handles breakups differently. I won't say men handle it better, I think they just hide their emotions better.
It depends on the person.
depends on their what?
The one who breaks up with the other
I'd say guys move on quicker
The one who was less involved in the relationship.
It depends on the people and the situation.
I am unsure but i move on pretty rapid.
It actually depends on the situation
The dumper, obviously.
No honestly. Most times I see dumpers come back because they realize they can't move on and they actually loved the person. By that time dumpee has moved on. The reason that dumper looks like moved on, most of the times, is because of relief of end of a relationship so they dont really think of what they "actually" feel, vs. dumpee cries himself/herself out for awhile then forgets by the time dumper notices wtf s/he lost.
These are all based on the assumption that it is not "dumper was obviously gonna dump" situation.
The dumper doesn't always. Every single ex has tried to contact me in some form after a break up. By the time they reach out, it's way too late.
At first dumpers have this pride that they took the relationship into their hands and made a decision. They feel happy and try to move on while the ex struggles. I feel like for my exes it takes a few months (more than 2) when it hits them. The dumpers realize what they are missing out on and that they regret dumping their ex. Only after the ex is gone do they miss them. They start to compare their ex to everyone, it brings back feelings, anger, and regret.
Whoever has less emotions, keeping gender aside
LOL.
Men say it is women.
Women say it is men.
No I say women move on faster. And I've seen most men say women too.
Break up = friendzone. End story.
