Do women really over-analyse relationships and men don't???

Question

well, except for Woody Allen... but do MOST men just accept situations eg. a break up and don't keep obssessing about it like most women? how it went wrong, could it be salvaged etc? or is things more black and white in men's eyes than women?

Answer 1

If you've been reading these answers you will come to the conclusion that women just have more issues. Men over analyse relationships too, but just do it less.

Reason is, that we're wired a bit different, and care about different things.

Answer 2

Is there an actual question here or are you just expressing your theory? Because the question you asked as the title, you answered in the first sentence. You have anxiey and over analyze things. Although, your thoughts are very interesting. But you sound like a teenager, so you also have to take into account that the guys your age are mentally immature while their bodies are mature and so of course they are going to have sex with girls without being ready to commit they way they should. The girls seem vulnerable because they are a lot more mature mentally and are actually looking for a relationship. If that makes any sense at all :)

Answer 3

Men analyzes over relationships just like women do. My ex did it all the time. We are really good friends but every now and again he'll ask me " what did I do wrong" ? Is there anything I can do to make it right. See some men when the girl is worth it and they know they messed up will try to fix it. But if it meant nothing to you, and you can move on you do. Or at least I do.

Answer 4

I think woman have a more complex brain then men when it comes to emotional issues. It is so true women read into anything a man says. I do anyway and I know most of my mates do. But men just accept a womans answer first answer on face value. Thats why woman are better liars and men aren't. They lack the imagination!!

Answer 5

Yes your right. most women tend to get attached much easier than men (that is real men, there are plenty of males out there that are overly sensitive and needy, these men do react alot like most of the women I know. but in the same token, most women can't stand these men romantically, because they are not men {eg. not emotionally strong})
when a man runs into a problem like a break up or a fight, he simplly puts on his thinking cap and figures out whats wrong, just as if his car had a spark plug miss fire. he'd asses the situation, pick the best course of action and put it into exicution with little to no emotion involved. It's just a spark plug.
But if a man had invested years into his car, picked it out of a junk yard and completly restored it, only to find it years later with another driver on the side, you be damn right that he gets mad and emotional. the big difference though is that a man transfers saddness into anger. it is our process that I'm sad, who made me like this, I hate them for making me feel this way, and I am in spite of them. it is only a "real man" that can go through an ordeal like this and still keep his cool, with out hate. and thats the truth.

Answer 6

It's a woman thing..........Men do not get goo goo ga ga over anything. They just go with the flow. I can honestly say that I know from experience that men just exist, they don't get into this drama relationship and break-up stuff like we do.......they don't think twice about any situation. Women write novels, I do....
We think about any situation night and day, sometimes we can't sleep....... I don't know any guy that has lost one minute of sleep thinking about a women........

Answer 7

woman are in the relationship for the relationship and men are in it or at lest most men for sex...there are about 50 out of 100 woman that are in it for the sex and 95 out of 100 of men for the sex....that is why woman are obssessing about it when they break up....sorry if this didnt make sence...

Answer 8

Men always think everything is the women's fault so there isn't as much need to analyze. They just tell themselves that she was a psycho and move on.

Answer 9

Men do as well, and they're also less accepting when faced with the phrase 'Do not ever call me again loser'. This seems to take a while to sink in.

Answer 10

Nope not true i bug the crap out of myself, worrying if i did something wrong .. i think it just depends on the person, guys are more emotionally distant so perhaps it may seem that way.
