Males tend to move on faster than females from failed relationships, anyone disagree?

I have no idea. I have never had any trouble moving on. I was dating again before either of my divorces were final.

Hmm... I don't completely disagree but I don't agree. I have moved on pretty quickly after break-ups but men I've broken up with have equally taken a very long time and others a very short time. Maybe it's on an individual basis for men and women, for me it's easy for me to move on and recognize it's over. For others I know it's not been easy for them.

Generally I disagree. All a woman has to do is go to a bar and sit there, opportunities will present themselves. It may not be what they're looking for, but it is there, and it requires zero effort. Men don't really have that option; it requires more effort to go meet people, as well as a particular mindset to go approach people again.

I neither agree nor disagree, however, it is always the man who can't wait to go out and get himself another woman, pronto! Guys just can't stand to be alone. Like big babies, they need someone to coddle and take care of them.

I disagree with your reasoning. Imagine that.
It isnt about opportunity. As you stated it is about mindset. I think both men and women sometimes have difficulty moving on emotionally and it takes effort for both.

If you factor in opportunity, 1. there has to be some men moving on in those bars or that is a moot point and 2. Why dont men have that option?

Personally, I didnt have to go sit in a bar. I was just minding my own business mowing my yard.

But when you look like you moving on couldnt be all that hard!
