There was another thread (and link included) that also stated that men take an ending of a relationship a lot harder. Which does coincide with this thread and your post. So relatively.. I can see how women can move on quicker (they have better social support in place for one reason)
That goes against everything I've been told about men.

There are related reports on widowers that show the same thing.
I watched my sister's BF go through the same thing as a widow. A lot of men lose too much confidante, social scheduler, lover, person to do stuff with...... as women we can fill those roles with our friends.

From personal experience and observations, many women keep a plan B type of guy In the wings, and at times plan C and plan D. Recently there was a survey where, 50% of women in LTRs admitted to having a plan B guy, just in case things end up falling apart in their current relationships. Men are often amazed at how quickly women move on. You wake up one day and all of a sudden you mean nothing to her and she treats you worse than a piece of dirt. I don't really blame them for it, its womans nature. Men and women are very different when it comes to out sexual strategies and imperatives. Briffaults law will givive you a little more insight into it.
Disagree! emotional detachment takes time (it just doesn't happen overnight) especially for women. When someone decides to end a long-term relationship, its been in the works of months...possibly years.

I would think so. But as my husband has pointed out, I lean towards being naive about what a lot of people do in relationships.

Also, "moving on" means different things to different people.
I think, a lot of times, what people think of as moving on is actually escapism.
Is this where we're supposed to mention the H-word and have shots?
I just saw a post by that one guys with the H word in it... I think he's actually just saying it so much now just to clown with people, LOL, I almost was gonna post that we needed a collective round of shots when I saw it.
