What do guys feel after a breakup?

[Anonymous]

Me and this guy have been dating for a month, its a short period of time but we actually hit it off pretty well and clicked. He decided to end things today though because his parents would rather have him with someone from their country, and he also says that he's not ready for a relationship because it is time consuming and he wants to finish school first. We are both 20 and we've dated for 6 weeks. Is there a chance of him coming back? As i said we really liked each other a lot but clearly his parents reaction to us stressed him out.

Also, this is our first time ever dating in general so this is all new to both of us. I just feel very hurt that he'd just leave like that.

News flash, just because men are conditioned to not show their feelings as it's repulsive to women for men to do so, doesn't mean we don't have them.

Ever looked at art? Read poetry? Listened to MUSIC? Guys learn to express themselves through other means like these, or just keep it inside. So, go listen to the lyrics written by men and then realize it's men that wrote them and contrast it to the stoic facade men are forced to wear to appeal to women.

Yeah i know, but what im wondering is if he'll realize what he has done and come back. Or maybe 6 weeks didn't really matter to him?

Come back?

I don't have much experience having married a girl from highschool. But usually exes don't come back. I certainly don't expect mine to..

You're a women in her prime, you have more options and an easier time dating than litteraly any other demographic. Move on.

Sounds to me like he never had any intention of doing any more than he did.
