Modern research says that men are more likely than women to fall in love at first sight and confess their love.
It also turned out that representatives of the stronger sex experience separation more difficultly, feeling complete loneliness.
Why is that? Psychologist Maria Medvedeva explained in an interview with Radio 1 .
The expert noted that men regard a breakup as a “sharp fall from a height.”
Women look at it differently. For them, it's a long descent down the mountain, interspersed with daily worries, the psychologist explained.
It is easier for the fair sex to seek support among relatives and friends.
Men, as a rule, do this less often and most often keep all their experiences to themselves. Because of this, it is more difficult for them to survive a breakup.
Why do men confess their love faster? It's all about a higher hormonal response.
In representatives of the stronger sex, dopamine works more efficiently, which pushes them to act more decisively.
The psychologist added that often men really do understand faster that they are in love.
Women, on the other hand, prefer to take a closer look and analyze whether a partner is reliable or not.
